  • Modular transfer system for workpieces
    Patent number: 8397375
    Abstract: A modular transfer system for workpieces. Workpiece carriers are positioned in a manufacturing module with the same CNC (x-y) axis systems and the same servo drives the workpiece carrier and transfers such between modules. A separate conveyor belt is thus not required for the transfer.
    Type: Grant
