Industry solutions from LEANTECHNIK

Efficient production for household appliances – with LEANTECHNIK rack and pinion drives and system solutions

Whether washing machines, refrigerators or dishwashers: our technology ensures precise, fast and flexible manufacturing processes.

The household appliance industry is characterised by high volumes, rapid innovation cycles and enormous cost pressure. Production facilities must be durable and efficient, as well as flexible enough to manufacture different model variants with short set-up times.
With LEANTECHNIK rack and pinion drives and system solutions, you get robust, modular and economical drive technology that is perfectly tailored to the requirements of white goods production.

Sheet metal working & component manufacturing

In housing and component manufacturing, precision, stability and process reliability are essential in every cycle time. LEANTECHNIK lifgo® gearboxes ensure precise, repeatable movements even under high loads and 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 components

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

Handling & Conveying

Reliable material flows and ergonomic processes are crucial in the series production of household appliances. LEANTECHNIK lean SL® drives and lift tables ensure efficient transfers and precise movements within assembly and production lines. The compact design allows for use even in limited installation spaces, while the robust mechanics guarantee low-maintenance continuous performance. The result is economical, reliable handling – ideal for high volumes and automated production environments.

Final assembly & packaging

In the final assembly of household appliances, every movement counts – from testing and packaging 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 lines and flexibly adapted to different product sizes. The result: optimum ergonomics, safe processes and a smooth flow of materials right through to dispatch.
