The ALPHR Modular Workstations
With the ever-increasing need for automation in the manufacturing environment, ALPHR has developed and innovative range of workstations that complement our Flexi-Pods and bespoke special purpose solutions.
We are proud to offer modular products that embody the best of our expertise and experience. Standard products not only help reduce risk by giving access to proven technology, but offer the additional benefits of repeatability and reduced development.
ALPHR’s comprehensive range of modular stations provide tried-and-tested automation solutions, designed for simplified integration, operation and maintenance.
Modular Workstation Design
Our modular design methodology allows for a simplified pricing structure, whilst offering the flexibility to incorporate additional functionality, including robots, screwdriver systems and vision systems.
Machines are designed and manufactured with a view to a client being able to add future product variants to the machine. The machine and associated fixturing, are designed for a quick-change process with embedded checking, to ensure that the correct fixtures are in place.
