For over three decades, ROBOWORKER has been developing and manufacturing versatile robotic automations for powder presses and other machining solutions. The robotic system retrieves the pressed parts from the press and then places them on sinter trays using specialized gripping systems.
Our systems enhance the quality and efficiency of machining solutions with innovative ideas and technologies. Thus, setting new standards in automated parts handling.
ROBOWORKER powder press and the robotic automation for powder presses form a pressing cell that meets the highest demands.
These types of automation are not only compatible with our own powder presses. They can also automate powder presses from other manufacturers. They are suitable for both uniaxial and multiaxial presses and can handle pressing forces of over 200 tons.
Continuous advancements in our parts handling ensure that they meet the high demands of our customers.

The high-performance robot in the system excels with extensive travel paths. This feature generates even larger loading areas for the pressed parts and increases productivity and efficiency.
The robot arm can dock on all ROBOWORKER grippers via a universal gripper interface. The grippers have motorized functions such as rotating, turning, or tilting, creating additional axes that synchronize with the robot system's movements.
ROBOWORKER tray handling systems can process all types of sinter trays, whether they are:
Our image processing technology supports our automation technology. This allows for processing the most complex part shapes and corresponding sinter trays with grooves, islands, and more.
We achieve the required high <strongabsolute accuracy in placement through precise robotic solutions that have been tested hundreds of times.
The ROBOWORKER range of grippers includes motor-driven single, double, and multiple grippers available as:
Additional functions such as rotating, turning, or tilting further enhance the diversity and improve the efficiency of our products.
We continuously develop our proven gripper software in-house at ROBOWORKER, ensuring maximum flexibility. From gripping to placing on the tray, including all intermediate steps.
With their expertise, our experienced team selects the right grippers for your products. If necessary, they design them entirely from scratch. This is part of our full-service approach.
ROBOWORKER punch cleaners brush and blow off powder residues on the pressing punch.
The ROBOWORKER cleaning program module allows to implement product-specific cleaning programs and parameterize them via the software interface. You can create a cleaning program automatically or manually.
In the past, workers needed to clean only an upper and a lower punch. However, with the development of multiaxial press systems, multiple punches now require cleaning. ROBOWORKER has developed multi-punch cleaning, where each punch can be cleaned individually and at various intervals.
ROBOWORKER offers different brushes for the cleaning processes to suit specific needs.
ROBOWORKER equips its robotic automations with various additional modules to enhance the quality of green parts and reduce the manufacturing effort in subsequent processes.
The newly developed The newly developed programmable brushing module (RBM) ensures a perfectly brushed underside of the green part. It relies on proven ROBOWORKER technology used in brushing systems. Additional brushing options for lateral brushing are also available.
Modules for blowing off green parts are available in various designs. These modules efficiently remove adhering burrs and powder residues from the parts.
To control the weight of the green part, ROBOWORKER integrates up to two precision weighing cells into the systems. The ROBOWORKER software allows for different types of weighing. You can weigh either each part or parts at individually defined intervals.
Based on ROBOWORKER’s measurement and inspection technology, our experts have integrated a measurement and inspection module into the automation systems. High-resolution cameras, sophisticated lighting systems, and ROBOWORKER image processing software measure and inspect the geometry and surface of the green part using transmitted and reflected light. A rejection mechanism sorts out defective parts.
In a personal consultation, our sales team will discuss your requirements and recommend the optimal system for your production. If you want to automate further process steps in the press shop, such as brushing or drilling of green parts, the PAG 80 is certainly the best solution, as you can also equip brushing and drilling units with the removable magazine trolley.
Certainly. ROBOWORKER offers both high-end solutions and very affordable options for lower requirements. Thus, the use of robotic automation can also be worthwhile for applications that were previously considered unprofitable.
Contact us – we look forward to challenges! We will find the right solution for your process, and at an attractive price-performance ratio.
This is possible. We offer retrofitting of existing powder presses from other manufacturers with automation. Our handling systems are designed to be compatible with every common type of powder press.
Later, this can be transformed into a ROBOWORKER press cell with a ROBOWORKER press. Our equipment, designed for long life, is ready for a second life.
ROBOWORKER robotic automations are also suitable for presses from all common manufacturers and are equipped with the appropriate interfaces.
The grippers are equipped with a universal interface. They can also be used in other ROBOWORKER systems by simple docking and undocking.
This means you only need to purchase a specialized gripper once, but you can use it across your entire facility. Typically, one or two grippers can cover the majority of your product portfolio.
The automation systems are generally suitable for various applications. For example, enhanced with the ROBOWORKER Posfinder, it's possible to automatically load and unload calibration presses.
ROBOWORKER drilling systems are also automated with theses handling solutions.
