sortimat Technology L.P., Production Systems

sortimat Assembly Technology
Machines now perform many repetitive tasks previously carried out by man. And they do so more quickly and more reliable. They don't just assemble parts, they also weld, apply adhesive, print labels and coil tubes - and they take no sick leave and no vacation. They also rarely make mistakes, and if they do, they recognize them immediately. sortimat assembly systems perform superhuman feats in more than 60 countries and in all key manufacturing industries. And they help the medical profession save lives. The role of sortimat specialists was, for instance, pivotal in the breakthrough of infusion catheters - they designed and built the first ever automated production line for the new invention. Today, sortimat is the world's No. 1 manufacturer of systems for the assembly of medical products.

sortimat Feeder Technology
Separating the wheat from the chaff: sortimat feeders can handle large volumes of small parts of complex shapes at high speed. They can also sort the good from the bad to safeguard downstream processes. sortimat feeders can "see" the products they handle. Using camera-based vision systems they can recognize the shape of components, even at high speed, and compare that shape with a reference image. They can sort the good from the bad, and can differentiate between mixed components loaded into the same machine. Today's feeders have come a long way from the very first "sortimat" built in 1959. But the aims remain the same: Flexibility, efficiency, reliable processes and durability. And speed. And cycle speed is no longer measured in seconds, but in milliseconds. For a wide range of products, including sterile parts and electrical components.

sortimat Service
A machine is only as good as the person who designed it. High performance, high-quality machines are not built in a day. Many months of hard, skilled work pass between the day on which the first sketch is made and the day on which the operator presses the start button. But sortimat design engineers do not retreat into ivory towers to do their work. From the very outset, we work hand in hand with our customers. Because at sortimat, each and everybody is committed to achieving a solution geared to your real-world needs. Service for us means striving for perfection - as defined by our customers.
