Fruitcore Robotics - Smart robotics for high-quality gripper integration

Fruitcore Robotics from Constance develops compact, powerful industrial robots under the HORST brand, which are characterised by their combination of robust hardware, intuitive software and plug-and-play ecosystem. Ideally suited for fast automation tasks in plastics production - and can be perfectly integrated with the modular PreciGrip gripper system from AGS.

The HORST series - versatile, lightweight and economical

The HORST robot family offers models such as HORST600, HORST900, HORST1000 and HORST1400 with payloads between 3 kg and 10 kg and reach ranges from approx. 600 mm to 1,400 mm. Thanks to their lightweight design, modular mechanics and maintenance-free drives, these robots are particularly durable and low-maintenance. They achieve a repeat accuracy of ± 0.05 mm and come with a 6-year warranty on the motor and gearbox - ideal for precise parts handling.

Advantages for gripper integration with PreciGrip AGS modules

Compact design, easy integration - ideal for confined systems in which PreciGrip modules are used
Fast commissioning - AI-supported horstOS/horstFX software enables intuitive programming in just a few hours
Plug-and-play compatibility - PreciGrip flanges, suction cups or gripper fingers can be quickly adapted and replaced
Digital ecosystem - component kits, e-learning and service packages enable maintenance without robot expertise

Gripper integration with PreciGrip - robust & modular

The combination of HORST robots and AGS PreciGrip offers a fully modular gripper solution for injection moulding and handling applications:

Form-fit 90° profile design enables precise and repeatable assembly of aluminium gripper systems
Flexible modules - suction cups, grippers or gripper fingers can be exchanged without tools and taught in immediately
Lightweight geometry - ABS components protect drives and increase cycle speed while minimising energy consumption
Scalable design - from simple small part grips to complex gripper structures - PreciGrip grows with every project requirement

Plug-and-play ecosystem & Service from a single source

In addition to robotics, Fruitcore offers comprehensive solution kits (e.g. for machine tending or parts separation) with prefabricated gripper, sensor and software modules. These enable the smooth integration of PreciGrip components and accelerate their use in series production. The following services are also available:

Virtual commissioning via horstOS tool and low programming effort
Remote support & Predictive maintenance through IIoT connection
E-learning & Training platforms for rapid technician qualification

PreciGrip & HORST - convincing synergies

Modular gripper structure: "Fast mould change, flexible handling"
Robust and easy integration: High repeat accuracy at minimum cost
Plug-and-play systems: Time- and resource-efficient automation
Scalability: From prototype to series production without system interruption

Efficient automation with Fruitcore & PreciGrip

With the HORST robots, Fruitcore Robotics offers a modern automation solution: low-maintenance, intuitively programmable and compact. In combination with the PreciGrip modular gripper system from AGS, a flexible, scalable and powerful automation solution is created - ideal for ABS grippers and demanding handling tasks in injection moulding processing. This powerful combination reduces development times, lowers operating costs and increases system availability - perfect for smart Industry 4.0 projects.
