The core skills of the Manz Group include robotics, image processing, laser technology,
metallization, wet chemistry, plus control and drive engineering.
INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS
Manz process machinery and automation systems offer customers numerous advan-
tages. They are characterized by the highest levels of performance and reliability. Maxi-
mum process quality combined with low cost of ownership speaks volumes for the
development work and sophisticated system concepts.
The Manz Group maintains its own production facilities and service subsidiaries
around the world to guarantee short response and delivery times. You too can benefit.
Manz sets new standards with the quality of its process solutions and the reliability of its newly developed systems.
Manz Automation Tübingen GmbH is an independent subsidiary of Manz
Automation AG, whose head office is in Reutlingen.
The Tübingen facility concentrates on the automation of processes for
the manufacture of carbide indexable inserts and automation in the life
science sector. Other core skills involve packaging and the development of
industrial-scale manufacturing processes for batteries destined for hybrid
and electric cars.
The Manz Group has sales and service subsidiaries in Germany, Taiwan, the
USA, China, South Korea, India and Spain. It also has its own production
facilities in Germany, Slovakia, Hungary, Taiwan and China.
AUTOMATION FOR CARBIDEINDEXABLE INSERTS
From Powder to Box –made by manz
One of the main lines of business of the systems.
aico division is the delivery of economical and highly
efficient automation solutions for the manufacture of
indexable inserts made from carbide or ceramic powder.
The system solutions, which are based on standard pack-
ages, cover the automatic removal of the green pellets
from the powder press, the loading and unloading of a
wide variety of different types of machinery and process
machines through to the fully automatic testing and pack-
ing of components. The automation concept revolves
around powerful robots and reliable image processing
systems combined with a highly flexible and intuitive
user interface.
In order to automate the individual manufacturing
processes as economically and efficiently as possible,
a range of standardized and well-known interfaces are
required between the automation system and the pro-
cess machines. This is especially important in the field
of press automation, where robot and press work hand
in hand.
AUTOMATION FOR THE LIFE SCIENCE SECTOR
Intelligent Sample Processing –made by manz
The systems.lab division automates research and analysis
laboratories by installing compact and powerful robot
platforms and workflow management systems.
Manz offers a range of compact and space-saving labo-
ratory robot platforms specifically designed for research
and analysis labs. Their high-quality industry-standard
components make them reliable, powerful and easy
to upgrade. In addition, Manz uses workflow manager
software to automate multiple lab workflows working in
parallel in high-throughput facilities. In doing so Manz
closes the gap between LIMS, laboratory robots and
stand-alone laboratory equipment.
Our pharmaceutical, chemical, biotechnology and
diagnostics customers deploy these technologies in
standardized and customized system solutions for
sample preparation, compound logistics, formulating and
various other applications. They achieve
¬ higher throughput at a lower cost
¬ better process quality and
¬ reliable documentation of sample and
process data.
PACKAGING TECHNOLOGY
Packaging –made by manz
The majer.products division produces machinery and sys-
tems for the manufacture of cardboard and foil packag-
ing material. Its program includes systems for paper cans
(tubular cans), cheese boxes and safety closures (cap-
sules) for champagne and wine bottles. As paper cans are
wound spirally, we also manufacture systems for cylindri-
cal sleeves and tubes, most specifically yarn carriers for
the synthetic fiber industry.
We provide complete solutions for the efficient produc-
tion of paper cans and packaging applications, particularly
in the food industry, where sealing requirements are very
stringent. These do not confine themselves to machin-
ery and systems, they also address material and process
questions. This knowledge and our experience in the pro-
cessing and working of paper and foil results in a range of
synergies that benefit our business partners.
SYSTEMS FOR THE INDUSTRIAL-SCALE PRODUCTION OF LITHIUM- ION BATTERIES FOR HYBRID AND ELECTRIC CARS
Future Technology –made by manz
The foundation for this future-oriented division is the
successful synergy between the know-how of high-tech
machine builder Manz and the skills embodied in Majer,
which has decades of experience in the paper and foil
processing market.
The division is the driving force for new, future-oriented
technologies in a wide variety of sectors. These technologies
employ key Manz skills in the fields of robots, image
processing, laser technology, metallization, wet chemistry,
metrology, control and drive engineering and the pro-
cessing of rolled material.
One main area lies in the development and production
of machinery and systems for the manufacture of lithium-
ion batteries. Besides the ongoing production of new
system solutions, Manz Automation has set itself the
task of pressing ahead with manufacturing technologies
for the large-scale batch production of lithium-ion
batteries. In addition to solar technology, Manz is there-
fore one of the prime movers in this sector for the
massive electro-mobility market.
