Fill.
Frankfurt/Gurten, 6th December 2012 – At the Euromold international trade fair in
Frankfurt, it was clear to see that developments in the field of plastics production are
heading towards hybrid concepts. Components with outstanding product properties
are being created through the targeted combination of polyurethane with natural
materials. Functionally optimized polyurethane is being combined, for example, with
wood or ceramics and allows products with a wide range of uses to be developed.
Together with its partner ALBA Tooling, Austrian machine engineering company Fill is
a pioneer in this field and presented tried and tested production processes for highvolume production to the specialist trade audience.
Standardized – well thought-out – structured
From the raw material to the tested component. At Fill, efficient production systems
are coordinated optimally with one another and deliver custom-made solutions. In the
field of optical quality control, Fill's sister company Weitblick Systems has developed a
flexible optical inspection process with the robot-controlled RV1000 camera system.
Objects up to a size of 1000 mm can be inspected fully automatically with the RV1000
robot inspection cell. The robot performing the task can be equipped with different
camera systems. The special lightweight robot is capable of operation without any
additional housing or safety equipment. This not only keeps the investment costs low,
but also results in completely new options through interaction with the operator. Many
customer inquiries and concrete discussions with international customers and partners
at Euromold confirm the high level of interest in this technology "Made in Austria."
