Abstract

The large-scale production with a high quality is one of the biggest challenges for companies in various sectors particularly in the automotive industry and the focus point by customers to buy a product is the degree of quality of this product. In addition to increase the diversity of variants o?ered by manufacturers, it’s also very important to increase the production e?ciency in international competition. However, the optimization of the production by minimizing the production space and integrate robotic technology is highly required. In the automotive industry for example, this relates to the provision of the required components at the assembly line. Here, the increasing number of di?erent components is adversely a?ected; therefor the associated multiplicity of bulk containers (GLTs) provide e?cient and ergonomic work?ows at assembly workplaces. This problem arises, among other things, in the fact that a second container has to be placed as a bu?er at the line for each part type to ensure an uninterrupted production process. In order to minimize the necessary space requirements as well as create a possibility for automated container handling, a research project was initiated with the aim to implement a handling system for bulk containers. The special requirement is to develop a completely new plant for container handling, which is not available on the market in this way. First of all, the requirements placed on the system were determined and on this basis concepts and constructive solutions will be worked out. This was followed by the consideration of the entire system and the examination of the initial requirements. The last step of the project is the realization of the system and the implementation of endurance tests. The aim of future research projects will be the increasing of the flexibility of the system, to use it with other types of containers.
