50 years of FFT Production Systems: Achievements, Innovations, and Future Visions – discover the highlights of the anniversary celebration!
08.11.2024Production of the MINI Countryman started at the BMW Group plant in Leipzig in November.
The smart weightlifter of our automated guided vehicle system , the FFT igv ELEVATE, is used in production. FFT supports BMW in optimizing production.
The FFT igv ELEVATE has an integrated lifting table with which a load of up to once ton can ne lifted to a height of 1.56 meters. The overall system concept from FFT also offers BMW an optimum solution for the logistical linking of production systems and for manual processing steps such as reworking and assembly on components of different sizes.
The use of igv ELEVATE enables line and cycle - independent processing and therefore higher output for the customer. In addition, an integrated AOI cell enables automatic surface inspection. This means the BMW bodies are measured and inspected by robots directly on the igvs.
The charging station is integrated into the processing stations so that no external charging stations are required. Loading and unloading also takes place automatically via lifting stations. Another advantage is that the safety technology of the ststionary system components is closely linked to the igv ELEVATE. The use of the automated guided vehicle system places high demands on positioning accuracy.
We are proud to be able to make a contribution to optimizing production at the Leipzig plan with our product.
