Whether it’s a washing machine, a fridge or a dishwasher: our technology ensures precise, fast and flexible manufacturing processes.

Efficient production of domestic appliances

With LEANTECHNIK solutions.

The household appliance industry is characterised by high production volumes, rapid innovation cycles and enormous cost pressures. Production facilities must be durable and efficient, whilst also being flexible enough to manufacture different model variants with short set-up times.

Sheet metal working & component manufacturing

In the manufacture of housings and components, precision, stability and process reliability are essential at every cycle time. Our lifgo® gearboxes ensure precise, repeatable movements even under high loads and in dynamic conditions. Whether for punching, joining or forming – our systems impress with their high rigidity, compact design and durability in 24/7 operation. The result: stable processes, consistent quality and minimal downtime – for maximum productivity in the manufacture of sheet metal parts and housing components.

Assembly of modules and sub-assemblies

Whether it’s a drum module, a cooling unit or a door system – precise movements and flexible adaptation to different models are crucial in the assembly of domestic appliances. With the 3-axis positioning systems and the lifgo® and lean SL® gearboxes, assemblies can be positioned precisely and assembled synchronously. Thanks to their modular design, the systems can be quickly reconfigured for new product variants, ensuring short set-up times, high repeatability and maximum efficiency in series production.

Handling & Conveying

In the mass production of domestic appliances, reliable material flows and ergonomic processes are crucial. Our lean SL® gearboxes and lift tables ensure efficient transfers and precise movements within assembly and production lines. Their compact design allows them to be used even where space is limited, whilst their robust mechanics guarantee low-maintenance, continuous performance. This results in cost-effective, reliable handling – ideal for high-volume production and automated manufacturing environments.

Final assembly & packaging

In the final assembly of domestic appliances, every movement counts – from testing and packaging right through to palletising. LEANTECHNIK lifting columns and transfer systems enable the safe, ergonomic and efficient handling of even large and heavy appliances. Thanks to their modular design, our systems can be seamlessly integrated into existing production lines and flexibly adapted to different product sizes. The result: optimum ergonomics, safe processes and a smooth flow of materials right through to dispatch.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of LEANTECHNIK systems?

They ensure short cycle times, precise movements and low maintenance costs.
Robust rack-and-pinion drives with 4-point roller guides, designed for continuous operation.
We combine the drive and guide in a single system, thereby saving installation space.

Can different types of equipment be manufactured on the same production line?

Yes, thanks to modular positioning systems and flexible lifting columns.
Technical details: DAP systems enable variable X/Y/Z movements with quick changeovers for model changes.

How compact are the systems when installation space is limited?

Very compact – the drive and guide are combined.
lifgo® integrates both functions into a single component, reducing the installation space and assembly time.

How do manufacturers benefit from system compatibility?

Thanks to lower costs for spare parts and maintenance.
Standardised rack geometries and sizes across multiple machine platforms.
