EcoShape tubular framing: The quicker way to a stable shopfloor solution

The next generation of EcoShape tubular framing system saves time when planning and setting up a range of shopfloor applications.

  • Low-cost automation: Quick set-up thanks to tubular connector system
  • Greater stability thanks to improved components
  • Quicker planning: Digital engineering with model templates

With the next generation EcoShape tubular framing system from Bosch Rexroth, users can plan and set up shopfloor solutions even more quickly. Even applications with high dynamic loads can be achieved at low cost with just a few components. The free MTpro planning software speeds up engineering with quickly adaptable models. Thanks to compatibility with many other Rexroth components, EcoShape applications can be expanded and rebuilt flexibly.

The innovative EcoShape has always offered budget-conscious users a simple and quick alternative for building flow racks, material shuttles and workstations. The proven aluminum tubular framing system is now even more stable, flexible and cost-effective – yet has the same look and feel and remains fully compatible with the existing components from the aluminum profile kit. New additional components expand the application possibilities. EcoShape is thus ideal for use in all sectors where materials flow or are assembled. ESD conductivity throughout allows EcoShape to be used in the electronics industry too.

Easier set-up thanks to new components

Following the current trend towards Low Cost Automation (LCA), the next generation EcoShape meets the high demand for space and cost-saving shopfloor solutions that can be moved and rebuilt quickly. Additional connection elements with internal clamping improve the frictional connection and allow more usable space, thus benefiting supermarket shelves or material shuttles.

Greater stability and cost effectiveness

The stability of the tubular framing system has been significantly improved. In addition to improved settlement behavior, the dynamic load capacity was increased ten-fold. Regularly retightening the connections is no longer necessary, while the foundations are demonstrably more stable thanks to the new connector types. Many applications can also be implemented more cheaply without additional connection elements.

Digital engineering using ready-made models

The free MTpro planning software allows EcoShape applications to be implemented much more quickly. The engineering tool is available in software form for installation or in a web-based online version. It includes numerous model templates for typical applications that can be easily scaled, customized and completed. The applications range from material shuttles and flow or transport racks to workstations and complete assembly islands. This means that a wide range of applications can be implemented or modified in even less time, offering employees maximum convenience, ergonomics and support when carrying out routine tasks.
