Gimatic China, the subsidiary company of the Italian EOAT producing giant Gimatic S.r.l, on showed their solutions of robotic arms EOAT at Chinaplas 2025 by COBOT to demostrate the easy assembly of robotic arms EOAT from the Gimatic EOAT modulars.

The collaborative robot (COBOT) is now a very hot topic in China with the moving forward of Made In China 2025, of which is an ideal subsitution of the traditional 6 axis servo industrial robot with its features of safe, easy installation and programming in the automation system of which request an interactive exchange with human bings. It's safe to demonstrate the application of the EOAT grippers with a COBOT in an exhibition unprotected.

Opened in 2017 at Changshu, China, Gimatic China as competence centers is meant to centralize the new experience, for the technological relocation and training in advanced technologies.

PVC/PPR ball valve is a very important pipe fittings in the drainage system in control of the water flow. But the injection production of a ball valve it'll need to insert the core of the valve with the sealing ring into the mold. The in mold insertion of the spare parts would be done manually which the cost is increasing with the getting higher labour cost and difficult to increase the productivity. That's why LESSO group invited SWITEK Automation to develop a series of pipe fittings auto-production solutions, among which include the Ball Valve Core Insertion System.

Designated to design an economic but efficient automation solution of ball valve injection production, the SWITEK 4 cavities ball valve in mold insertion solutions include the following functions:

• The O Ring sorting and inserting
• The ball valve core sorting and inserting
• The ball valve picking
• The runner cutting
• The turning of the ball valve core

The functions above will ensure that the system will produce the PVC/PPR ball valve automatically.
