Production

Workpiece carriers, product carriers and cleaning baskets for the manufacturing industry

Clean processes, reliable components - from CNC to surface finishing

In the modern production of precision parts, assemblies and functional parts, one thing is clear: every process step must be precise, clean and reproducible. Whether CNC machining, punching, milling, grinding, honing, cleaning, quality inspection or contract manufacturing - ZELL workpiece carriers, goods carriers and modular cleaning baskets allow components to be reliably protected, cleaned, transported and traced.

Advantages of modular carrier systems in industrial production

✅ Component protection at the highest level

ZELL workpiece carriers are individually adapted to your component geometry - so you avoid scratches, friction, collisions or deformation. Even with sensitive surfaces, sharp edges or delicate components, parts remain securely fixed.

✅ Reusable goods carriers & load carriers

In contrast to disposable or foam solutions, ZELL's reusable carriers offer a durable, sustainable and stackable solution for series production, intermediate buffering or logistics - including integration into KLTs, Euroboxes or special containers.

✅ Cleaning baskets for maximum technical cleanliness

ZELL cleaning baskets are designed for aqueous, alcohol-based or ultrasonic cleaning. They enable VDA-19-compliant cleaning with free flow and precise positioning - ideal for electroplating, assembly or testing.

✅ Automation & conveyor technology compatible

Whether in robot cells, conveyor belts or palletizing systems - all carriers can be handled, stacked and tracked automatically. They are suitable for pick & place, machine loading and measuring stations.

Economy & standardization

With standardized goods carrier systems, companies save time, waste and packaging costs - thanks to:

  • ✔ Less reloading & manual transfers
  • ✔ Robust reusability over thousands of cycles
  • ✔ Reduced inspection costs thanks to reproducible part position
  • Integration into existing logistics and conveyor systems

💡 Many ZELL customers achieve amortization after just a few product cycles - while at the same time increasing process quality.

Traceability & quality assurance

On request, we can equip your carriers with DMC, laser marking or RFID - for:

  • 🔍 Seamless batch tracking
  • Integration into QM/ERP systems
  • 📦 Documentation of component status & cleaning cycles
