Indexing Ferris Wheel Cell

Welding Cell Highlights

The Indexing Ferris Wheel Cell comes with a full range of safety features and can accommodate two robots.

The loading zone of the cell is available in two variations: roll door or light curtain.

Rapid changeovers and high productivity are made possible by adaptive software and the high-speed drives of the positioners.
