TÜNKERS^® – The Specialist in Gripper and Handling Technology

Introduction
Gripper and Handling Technology form one of the core competences of the wide range of TÜNKERS products. Our portfolio includes various modular system solutions based upon force and form-closed concepts. The main application area of these grippers is in body-in-white, where handling, process and geometry applications are realised. Due to the flexibility of the modular system, however, gripper operations such as palletisers for crates can be realised in automation technology as well.
 
Versatility and Flexibility
Next to standardised modular systems such as the TÜNKERS circular, carbon or square tube systems and Euro-Gripper tooling, we also offer customised technology in adjusted design. Upon request, we offer niche products, for instance our Mecatron system or turnkey fixtures.
World-Wide Experience and Problem-Solving Competence
The project development of TÜNKERS® gripper systems resorts to a wealth of experience gained in over 10 years and the supply of more than 8 000 units delivered world-wide. Handling systems are used by a large number of OEMs in the automotive industry, for instance, by Audi, BMW, Daimler, Ford, GM, Landrover, Renault, Volvo, Volkswagen and Skoda. As a specialist in gripper systems this experience enables us to react flexibly to problems of any kind and offer you timely and competent solutions, for instance, in the case of constructive challenges.

TÜNKERS Grippers and James Bond!
The film industry uses TÜNKERS gripper technology too. In the James Bond film “Die Another Day” villains chained Halle Berry to a TÜNKERS gripper to have her killed by laser beams. But James Bond rescues the agent and is rewarded by the beauty in the end.
