Framo Morat GmbH & Co. KG

With unattended operation around the clock, driverless transport systems (AGVs) in warehouses, parcel distribution centres and production halls ensure maximum profitability and reliability when distributing goods, packaging materials or components.

Hub gears from Framo Morat prove their value as wheel drives for AGVs due to the advantageous arrangement of both the bearings and the drive and output shafts. Furthermore, a compact design in confined spaces is possible.

The hub gears are available in the NG250 and NG500 variants, each in single- and double-stage versions with Vulkollan® wheels. Moreover, customer-specific adaptations, such as a brush seal for outdoor applications or a toothed belt for use in high-bay warehouses, can be made too.

The “Mini” series of linear actuators are based on the economic minimum principle: Use of powerful hollow-shaft motors delivers the required lifting force with a design type that is very short relative to the stroke length. This makes the Mini drives particularly well suited for use where space is limited. Despite its compact and lightweight design, it is extremely durable and long-lasting.

Besides the standard range that is sold since 2018 by the Company Grob GmbH Antriebstechnik, Framo Morat has developed in the past years many projects based on special linear actuator designs. Customized variants are for example used in drives for the facade technology, the food industry or the packaging technology.

The LinearChain push/pull actuator is able to move large loads horizontally and vertically with high positioning accuracy. The LinearChain series consists of specially designed links, whose geometry prevents them from being kinked under pressure loads. As a result, the LinearChain can be used as a conventional linear drive.

The chain is driven using a special housing with integrated chain sprocket to which a drive motor, such as a shaft-mounted Compacta drive motor, can be flange-mounted.

Besides the standard LinearChain range that is sold since 2014 by the Company Grob GmbH Antriebstechnik, Framo Morat has developed in the past years many projects based on special LinearChain designs. Customer-specific variants of LinearChain are for example used in drives for dental or medical technology.

Its many years of experience in the drive technology field make Framo Morat your reliable development partner with system competence who will offer you a technically and economically mature solution.
