Special structures for special loads

From A to B
and in between

Docking of up to 3,000 kg, particularly sensitive components, complex tools, drawn-in chains, empty warp beams - these are just a few special cases for which there can be no standard in intralogistics. And there must not be for the safety of people and materials.

Transport trolleys from Genkinger are always custom-built solutions, specified for the respective loads and designed for a wide variety of situations and tasks on site. For example, transport trolleys from Genkinger are used in weaving and knitting mills not only for transport, but also for storage, intermediate storage and as collection trolleys (order picking).
 

  • Gentle transport of material
  • Orderly (intermediate) storage
  • Variable width
  • Electric or manual

Pivot point
for assemblies

If the further assembly of assemblies or vehicles and machines is to be kept as flexible as possible, new transport solutions are needed within manufacturing as an alternative to rails and belts. As the size, weight and bulkiness of assemblies increase, so do the demands on transport. The pivotal point is also the device for safe pickup as well as precise feeding of the assemblies. 

Genkinger designs industrial trucks with a high level of vertical integration. This enables specific configuration, even for different transport tasks with a single vehicle.

Everything under control in the weaving & knitting mill

Sovereign security
in any situation

When transporting docks and merchandise trees, it is important to solve these three situations in particular with confidence: 

  1. The removal of the dock from the dock winder or the removal of the fabric beam from the weaving machine
  2. The safe transport, also over longer distances, on small and also uneven surfaces
  3. The safe unwinding of the dock or fabric beam down to the floor, to intermediate heights or up to the high rack

Genkinger develops customized transport solutions for docks and goods trees with different weights, lengths and diameters, always also adapted to the conditions and requirements on site.

Contact experts
  • Docks & fabric trees up to 3,000 kg
  • Different lengths and diameters
  • Also double-sided overrolling and unrolling from the floor to the high rack

Standards are the way to go

Rectangular loads such as small load carriers (KLT) or skeleton containers are standardized systems. The fact that they can be stacked on top of each other and/or grouped together next to each other (e.g. on Euro pallets) means that a larger number of the rectangular loads can be transported at the drop of a hat as well as stored in a space-saving manner.

In principle, picking up by forklift or pallet truck is simple. Smaller units are picked up on pallets. Larger boxes, bins or containers have feet that can be driven under from all four sides. 

For particularly heavy rectangular loads and uneven distributions, Genkinger will develop special solutions for you for loading, unloading, transporting, storing, as well as feeding within production.

Textile technology for advanced students:

Warp beam change
with weaving harness

For a flexible article change in weaving mills, drawn-in warps must be kept ready on the one hand and picked up, transported and stored in an orderly manner on the other. Warp thread breaks during the changing process and storage must be avoided. 

Genkinger has been developing special and standard vehicles as well as devices for the textile industry since 1955. Experienced specialists are needed for individual solutions, especially for warp beam changing including weaving harness.

  • Special vehicles and devices for changing drawn-in chains
  • For different machine types and widths
  • Narrow aisles, full and half warp beams

New mobility
of tools

In order to lift tools safely, transport them and position them precisely in the machine, different load centers, dimensions, docking situations, entry heights and maneuvering options must be taken into account depending on the tool (punch, casting, forging, mold). In addition, there are individual requirements for operation and the degree of automation.

Based on your specification, Genkinger configures mold changers for maximum efficient use on site.

Contact experts
  • Handling of tools from 500 kg to over 80,000 kg
  • Mobile lifting tables, change carts, assembly aids
  • Mobile temporary storage of tools

Safe on all
ways through the
weaving and knitting

Special lifting and transport vehicles are needed for inserting, changing and storing warp beams. This is because roll-shaped heavy loads such as warp beams require particularly safe handling.

Genkinger has been the specialist for lifting and transport vehicles for warp beams for many decades. We are in close exchange with leading textile machinery manufacturers to equip small and large textile companies around the world with innovative transport and material handling systems for warp beams.
