Components such as precision valves, membranes, sealing surfaces, or pressure sensors are sensitive to mechanical stress. ZELL workpiece carriers offer positive fit, protect functional surfaces, and prevent micro-damage – from the machining center to the cleanroom.
Especially in gas and fluid technology, technical cleanliness (VDA 19 / ISO 16232) is crucial. ZELL cleaning carriers enable reproducible, fully automated cleaning – whether aqueous, chemical, in ultrasonic or vacuum dryers. The sophisticated design ensures complete flushing and rapid drying.
The carrier systems are suitable for robots, stackable, traceable (e.g. via RFID or DMC) and integrate seamlessly into modern production environments – ideal for high volumes, just-in-sequence production or cleanroom applications.
All ZELL carrier systems are durable, 100% recyclable and can be used for multi-way logistics and circular systems. This improves the environmental footprint of your production and reduces disposable materials and packaging costs.
ZELL develops customized solutions, from small series to fully automated line operation. Whether high-pressure valve, vacuum flange or gas flow controller: We deliver the right carrier system for your requirements.
Many well-known manufacturers in the gas, fluid, and vacuum technology sectors already rely on modular carrier systems from zell-group.com to ensure production quality, standardize processes, and reliably meet the requirements for technical cleanliness and traceability.

Depending on the application, we recommend starting with our "Factory" workpiece carriers, as these can be configured both as inserts for Euro containers and as standalone functional carriers. More demanding applications are better suited to our reinforced "Carrier" or "Stainless Steel" carriers.
Yes, all carriers are washable. Samples can be provided for specific critical process parameters.
Yes, all workpiece carriers are compatible with automation systems, form a defined matrix, and can therefore be configured for robotic use. Components are arranged in such a way that grippers can be positioned accordingly. Because the carriers are designed to be cleanable, they are slightly heavier; therefore, their weight and center of gravity must be taken into account when handling the entire carrier.
Our plastic carriers operate reliably over extended periods at temperatures of approximately 60–70°C, and in some cases even at significantly higher temperatures during short cycles. Our stainless steel carriers—particularly the GRID carriers—can be used in furnaces at temperatures up to 1,200°C. For additional specifications, please refer to our material data sheets.
Yes, all plastic components can be manufactured with an antistatic additive. See also the data sheet in the Downloads section.
Yes, ZELL can custom-manufacture component holders, as well as entire workpiece carriers or inlays for containers, as a single injection-molded component. We typically start by reviewing the more than 1,300 available variants using our ZELL configurator; if no satisfactory solution is found there, customers can work with our engineering team to develop a “new clip.” These can be tested in 3D and as prototypes before the corresponding injection mold is manufactured.
