Abstract: Mechanised method for bending and loading slender products having two longitudinal ends into at least one package implementing one or more gripper-bender devices and comprising the following steps of: /a/ gripping by the gripper-bender device(s) the product(s) in a rest position on a support surface, position wherein each product has an initial length between the two longitudinal ends thereof, /b/ stressing by the gripper-bender device(s) the product(s) in a curved position, position wherein each product has a reduced length between the two longitudinal ends thereof shorter than the initial length, and, /c/ depositing and inserting by the gripper-bender device(s) the products in the curved position into said at least one package.

Abstract: A robot cell including a structure delimiting a cell with a closed section, typically polygonal, in particular rectangular, with metallic corner posts, extending vertically to the edges of the cell, the corner posts being preferably equipped at the lower ends of the posts with underframes intended to bear on the ground, metallic upper crossbars linking, in pairs, the upper ends of the posts over a periphery of the section cell, a central support formed by the assembly of metallic elements, extending over the cell between the upper crossbars resting locally at fastening supports on the upper crossbars, at intermediate areas of the upper crossbars, and a parallel-kinematics robot, housed within the volume of the cell.

Abstract: A conveying system for elongate products, such as sausages, includes a first conveyor having: at least one conveyor belt having an inner face and an outer face, and guide wheels for the at least one conveyor belt configured to engage with the inner face of the at least one conveyor belt. At least one support includes a housing extending in length configured for receiving an elongate product, an attaching member attaching the at least one support to the at least one conveyor belt, ensuring attachment of the at least one support, locally, in a direction transverse to the conveyor belt including pairs of attachment groove and attachment rib (Na).

Abstract: A suction-cup gripper device including: at least one pneumatic cylinder including a cylinder body, a piston sliding in an inner chamber of the cylinder body, a rod secured to the piston, the piston-rod assembly being configured to be retracted ad deployed, a pneumatic suction cup secured to the rod, a depressurization circuit, the depressurization circuit including: the rod is tubular, and communicating with the pneumatic suction cup, an inner duct, sealingly connected to the rod via sliding seals, forming a vacuum chamber, and the piston is annular and sweeps an annular pressurization chamber of the cylinder body connected to at least one compressed air port.
