Published purpose

The aim of the project is to develop a prototype gripper capable of mechanically handling pipes with diameters ranging from 600 to 2100 mm, and to integrate it into a system comprising three demolding tables tested in a previous project. This is the second phase of a total three-phase project to mechanize all demolding activities. This project comes at a time when the firm has been looking at the demolding systems available on the market for a very long time. Unfortunately, there is no system on the market that is adapted to the geometry of the firm’s products.
