To remain competitive, companies need to innovate, diversify, be flexible and optimize their costs. In 2022, 68% of BIBUS France customers saw their business grow thanks to the modernization of their production tools.
Customization of industrial equipment is a key solution for staying competitive and meeting the two major challenges of the industry of the future: flexibility and reducing the drudgery of tasks.

Let's discover the innovative solutions that help optimize machines and production processes.

Optimum, safe mobility

Standardized equipment can be a hindrance to a company's development, not least because it is difficult to handle and maintain. Customizable solutions are available to optimize the ergonomics of production tools to make maneuvering easier, more efficient and thus improve production processes.

● Autonomous electric wheels from ez-Wheel motorize rolling equipment and industrial carts to make them autonomous and easily move heavy loads and people. The 300 series wheel helps move up to 1000 kg loads.
Robust, maneuverable, compact and safe, they incorporate a motor and one or more batteries for starting, moving and braking heavy loads on all types of smooth or uneven surfaces.

Different series of autonomous electric wheels enable us to meet customer needs and adapt existing equipment to all environments, such as logistics warehouses, pharmaceutical and agri-food laboratories, hospitals, chemical plants, etc.

By providing electric assistance, autonomous wheels enable operators to maneuver industrial forklifts effortlessly, thus reducing the risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) and accidents to people and equipment. Electric wheels thus contribute to optimizing workflows.

● ez-Wheel's SWD (safety wheel drive®) drive wheels act as thrusters and can be easily integrated into existing industrial equipment such as lift trucks, AMRs, AGVs, pallet shuttles or conveyors to optimize mobility in highly-stressed industrial environments. Movements are safe and highly precise, whatever the ground conditions.

Although different diameters (125 mm and 150 mm) and load capacities (from 500 kg to 1500 kg) are available, all drive wheels incorporate a motor and a motion control system to ensure safe movement. Thanks to a simple interface, operators can control various movement parameters such as speed and direction.

Production machine efficiency, reduce maintenance and improve production quality.

● Electric and gas cylinders enable operators to push, pull, lower, lift, lock and position loads, and adjust the height of equipment.
Programmable electric cylinders are designed to precisely control linear movements and adjust the positions of machine worktops effortlessly; while gas cylinders boost the strength of material handlers tenfold. Electric and gas-operated cylinders can be integrated into all types of equipment to automate precise, repetitive movements for lifting, clamping, tightening and loosening workpieces.

BIBUS France has joined forces with Bansbach easylift® to offer a wide range of robust and durable electric cylinders, gas cylinders and lockable gas cylinders (tension and compression). To meet specific customer requirements, electric and gas cylinders can be custom-designed. Stroke length, rod position, force or materials are all customizable.

The body of EasyE-Line electric cylinders incorporates the high-performance 24Vdc motor, making them compact and easy to adapt to small installation spaces. Depending on the model, load capacity can reach up to 10 000 N.

● ACE MC Series to SC Series shock absorbers help optimize machine operation and company productivity. They extend machine life and make them more efficient. They are available in a wide range of accessories compatible with existing equipment.

By absorbing the shocks, vibrations and impacts that cause damage to machines, shock absorbers reduce downtime and equipment maintenance costs.

Without shock absorbers, shocks also harm production by generating scrap.  When braking systems for moving loads are controlled, the risk of impact on production is reduced. The food, logistics and pharmaceutical industries all suffer production losses due to breakage caused by shocks in the manufacturing process.

Shock absorbers also help to reduce noise pollution, which creates an uncomfortable working environment.

The returns on investment in customization solutions are quickly visible: less maintenance and machine downtime, less scrap, better flow management, less absenteeism among operators and improved working conditions. Transforming your industrial equipment also means transforming your company.

BIBUS France is the strategic partner for all customers wishing to optimize their existing systems. Don't hesitate to contact our experts to help you identify the tools you need to improve, and reveal your company's full potential by working together.
