Transfer systems

It’s not the big fish that eats the small one – it’s the fast one that eats the slow one. This unattributed quote is a perfect analogy for ambitious brands like yours. In our fast-paced society, where markets demand more products at ever-higher quality standards, a short time to market means an edge over the competition. At the core of your speed lies a production line that consists of manufacturing systems. Parts are moved into the production line and assembled products are moved away for packaging by transfer systems.

Fast and safe transfer

Speed is important, but not without the safety of your employees. Transferring products from one production process to the next is a job where precision is required. IMS sources and sets up transfer systems from world-famous brands such as Rexroth. Using great precision, these systems load up to 300 kilograms, with or without the workpiece pallet.

Flexible and cost-effective

Thanks to their modular designs, the transfer systems we supply can be freely configured and reconfigured, allowing you to expand only when necessary and thus reducing unnecessary costs. Whether your manufacturing process calls for a long or a short production line, heavy or light loads, these conveyor systems adapt to your wants and needs. In fact, the Rexroth TS 5 king shaft system offers many more advantages when compared to traditional chain drives.

Strong but quiet

It may seem contradictory, but there are transfer systems that combine strength and a suitability to harsh environments with noise-free operation. Add to this the extremely low maintenance and computer-driven operation and it is easy to see why more and more manufacturers are incorporting king shaft transfer systems into their production lines.

IMS is a team of engineers that is dedicated to helping you meet your customers’ expectations. We listen intently, draw up a business case and turn your idea into a scalable manufacturing line, equipped with robust and precise transfer systems that suit your particular needs. Curious to see how we can help? The IMS website shows many examples of successful implementations.

IMS is proud partner of the Solar Team Twente.
