Kiefel joins ABB Authorized Value Provider Program
ABB robot technology is utilised in Kiefel’s Fiber Thermoforming system, the NATUREFORMER KFT 90. The ABB robots are used for pick and place applications and as heavy-duty robots for the KFT 90 tools.
Due to the integration of ABB robots, Kiefel customers enjoy full flexibility in the manufacturing of plastic and fibre products, and – due to the implementation of the RobotStudio, a comprehensive simulation and offline programming software – development times can be shortened and start-ups can be made significantly quicker. During machine operation, robot processes can be changed faster and adapted to altered conditions such as switching to another product quickly and efficiently.
The interface between the robots and Kiefel control technology allows customers to benefit from a proven and reliable system. The safety function offers maximum safety for the operator.
ABB supports Kiefel in various applications. The exchange of experience allows Kiefel and ABB to successfully penetrate new market sectors.
As a partner in the ABB Authorized Value Provider Program, Kiefel offers certified sales, support, maintenance and engineering services in close co-operation with ABB.
By participating in the ABB Value Provider Program, Kiefel can offer its customers a number of advantages, including fast global support and parts supply – by Kiefel and ABB, continuous joint development of the robot and interface integration, and access to demo robots for specialised customer applications.
