Aluminum extrusions play a significant role in industrial automation due to their versatility, durability, and ease of use. Here are several ways aluminum extrusions are utilized in industrial automation:
Aluminum extrusions are used to create robust frameworks for machinery, assembly lines, and workstations. These frameworks provide structural support and flexibility for mounting various automation components such as sensors, actuators, conveyors, and robotic arms.
Extrusions are employed in creating enclosures and safety guards around automated equipment to ensure worker safety and protect machinery from external elements.
Aluminum extrusions form the structure of conveyor systems used for material handling within industrial setups. They offer a lightweight yet sturdy base for conveyor belts, rollers, and guides.
The modular nature of aluminum extrusions allows for easy modification and expansion of automation setups. Components can be quickly added, removed, or rearranged to accommodate changes in production requirements.
Extrusions are used to build ergonomic workstations that can be adjusted for optimal operator comfort and efficiency. This includes adjustable height tables, tool racks, and assembly stations.
Aluminum extrusions serve as a foundation for linear motion systems, guiding and supporting the movement of various components along precise paths. These systems are vital in robotics and automated assembly lines.
Manufacturers often utilize aluminum extrusions to create custom-designed solutions for specific automation needs. These could range from specialized frames for electronics to unique mounting solutions for sensors and cameras.

One system for everything: the core of the Modular Automation System is the unique fastening technology for aluminum extrusions. Two extrusion sizes that can be combined with each other in 40mm and 50mm series, as well as a matching standard T-slot size of 14mm that is uniform in all extrusions, open up a wide range of possibilities.
