Robot Transfer Units

Robot Transfer Unit (RTU) is a solution designed to extend the operating area of robots in industrial robotics, enabling greater efficiency in automated production lines. Thanks to the robustness of their steel or aluminium structures, solutions in the RTU range support fast and precise movements over long distances, improving robot performance in complex industrial applications. These motion systems are essential for increasing the operating range of robots.

What are Robot Transfer Units?
Robot Transfer Units allow robots to move over long distances, increasing their reach. These handling systems are available in different configurations to meet all requirements. Steel RTUs, for example, are ideal for large robots due to their high rigidity and load capacity. On the other hand, aluminium Robot Transfer Units offer a light and strong alternative, perfect for small to medium-sized robots and high dynamics movements over long distances. For Cobots, Universal Robot-certified Cobot Transfer Units (CTUs) guarantee fast integration thanks to a fully equipped system.

Can RTUs be customised for specific needs?
Robot Transfer Units can be customised to the specific needs of the application, such as stroke, load capacity and speed.

Which industries can benefit from the use of RTUs?
RTUs are used in industries such as industrial automation and material handling, where precise and fast handling of tasks over long distances is required.

Available Versions:

RTU - Belt and rack and pinion driven shuttle system for moving with high dynamics every model of robot from the smallest cobot to the largest robot. 

RTU (Steel) - Rack and pinion driven shuttle system for moving large robots and heavy loads. The highly engineered bases from steel allows for optimal high stiffness and load capacity. 

Cobot Transfer Unit - A full range of transfer unit for improving the reach of each size of UR cobots.
