With more than 380 participants, the TÜNKERS symposium "Hardware Cloud" in May 2018 in Ratingen attracted great interest. Recreate your impressions via the virtual tour in 3D on the "exhibition grounds" with your computer or smartphone.

Picture book of forming technology

The present “picture book” gives you an overview of typical applications we have implemented in the past few years. Maybe you will also find inspiration for your current application.
Adding holes and recesses or trimming are among our specialties in forming technology.

Stamping technology for component labelling

Professional stamping technology makes it possible to add not only figures, numbers or symbols, but also beads and knobs to sheet metal components  so that they remain visible even after the painting process.

TÜNKERS offers a broad range of toggle units and C-brackets starting from the smallest clamp in the series.

Our proven family of AFS accumulating conveyors, one of the leading suppliers of pallet accumulating conveyors, has recently been expanded. New system solutions provide for increased flexibility by allowing to convey around the corner, integrating bend elements and lifts and overcoming gradients. One special highlight is the accumulating conveyor without pressurized air featuring electric actuators and stopping points. The patented pallet coupling is another option which not only reduces the number of stopping points, but also the power required – contributing to energy efficiency in conveyor technology where motors often run permanently -  day and night.

We congratulate TUNKERS Inc. on its 20th anniversary!

Skid AGVs replace stationary roller conveyors in truck manufacturing

A plant manufacturing trucks in South America has decided to use skid AGVs instead of stationary roller conveyor belts. The skid AGVs delivered by our partner Sinova accommodate the entire car body and take it to the individual roller conveyor stations as required. The video attached gives a short impression.

The chain is the centrepiece of the AFS accumulating conveyor. This simple and robust drive element has been tried and tested in several thousands of applications of TÜNKERS/APM systems used in body-in-white assembly. And, by the way, most competitors use this technology as well.
