Pick-and-Place Robots

Rethinking parts handling – efficient, error-free, automated

Harness the full potential of Rotte’s robotics expertise for truly efficient part handling: We develop pick-and-place robot solutions tailored precisely to the individual needs of each client. Our robots handle parts with exceptional repeatability—boosting your production capacity while reliably eliminating avoidable errors. Discover what makes material handling efficient, flexible, and cost-effective—and how we can help you achieve it.

Applications for Modern Pick-and-Place Technology

Our pick-and-place robot solutions are used across a wide range of industries and are especially beneficial for companies that need to process high volumes with maximum precision or reliably position and assemble high-value products.
In the automotive industry, they handle the exact placement of parts, assembly of small components, and sorting of supplier parts, ensuring stable and error-free production.
In the electronics industry, our robots manage the precise handling of sensitive components—such as circuit boards, sensors, and microchips—without damage.
In the packaging and logistics sectors, they automate sorting, packaging, and order picking, significantly increasing both the speed and accuracy of operations.

Automation in Part Handling with Pick-and-Place Robots

When it comes to automated gripping, positioning, and placement in industrial manufacturing, maintaining minimal tolerances is essential. Rotte’s pick-and-place systems—available as robots or cobots—pick up parts with high precision, align them exactly, and process them further. Our pick-and-place systems are adapted individually to your processes and can be easily reprogrammed to take on new tasks as requirements change. No configuration is ever final.

By implementing our intelligent robotics solutions, companies can:

Reduce production times by optimizing material flow
Minimize error rates by eliminating manual inaccuracies
Lower costs by automating workflows and using human resources more effectively
Increase flexibility with fast reprogramming for handling different parts using the same system
Relieve workers from physically demanding or repetitive tasks

Technology for Maximum Precision and Efficiency

Our pick-and-place robots exclusively utilize state-of-the-art control, gripping, and sensor technology. With carefully selected innovative components, we enable precise and gentle handling—even at high cycle rates.

Custom Gripper Technology for Every Workpiece

A key element of every pick-and-place system is the customized gripper solution. All grippers are specifically matched to the size, material, and production requirements of your workpieces. Depending on the application, we use parallel grippers for precise part pickup and assembly tasks, vacuum grippers for delicate or large-surface parts, mechanical grippers for robust or heavy components, and magnetic grippers for handling metallic parts with high payloads. This ensures secure handling, minimizes scrap, and significantly contributes to process stability.

High-Precision Robot Control and Vision Systems

Our pick-and-place robots use advanced control systems combined with intelligent sensors to position parts precisely and without error. With cutting-edge camera and vision systems, they automatically detect workpieces, align them accurately, and compensate for any positional deviations. Real-time corrections prevent misgrips and allow the system to handle various product variants without mechanical retooling. This intelligent vision technology makes pick-and-place processes—especially in handling unsorted small parts, the “supreme discipline” of pick-and-place robots—exceptionally efficient and flexible.

Modular Robotic Systems for Maximum Flexibility

Rotte’s industrial robots and robotic cells are modular in design and integrate seamlessly into existing production or packaging lines. They can be combined with conveyor systems, assembly units, or quality control stations to form a fully connected Industry 4.0 environment. A user-friendly interface ensures easy operation and full control over all required applications in your facility.
