SmartFlow System – advanced automation for metal component production

At MBL, we continuously develop our manufacturing capabilities by investing in technologies that enhance quality, efficiency, and production flexibility. One of these solutions is the SmartFlow System – an integrated automation system for the storage, transport, and handling of metal sheets used in the production of metal components.

What does this mean from the customer perspective?

For customers using our components, three factors are essential: consistent quality, reliable delivery performance, and the ability to respond quickly to demand. The SmartFlow System supports each of these areas.

Increased production efficiency

The system automatically supplies metal sheets to laser cutting machines and unloads finished parts after processing. This allows the cutting equipment to operate at maximum capacity without unnecessary downtime related to manual loading or unloading. As a result, production throughput is improved and lead times can be reduced.

Stable quality and higher precision

Automation minimizes the risk of manual handling errors while improving process repeatability. The system controls parameters such as sheet thickness verification and accurate material positioning, supporting the dimensional precision of manufactured parts. This is particularly important in the production of wheelchair components, where reliability and consistency of every detail are critical.

Flexible manufacturing capabilities

The SmartFlow System is configured according to specific production requirements. It supports multiple sheet formats and a wide material thickness range, enabling efficient handling of both high-volume serial production and smaller, more customized orders.

Continuous operation potential

The system enables production with limited operator presence, including night shifts and weekends. This supports higher machine utilization, improved workflow continuity, and faster response to changing customer demand.

Technology that supports long-term partnerships

Modern production technology is not only an investment in machinery, but also an investment in customer value. With the SmartFlow System, MBL strengthens its ability to deliver metal components that meet the high standards of the mobility industry while ensuring dependable service and manufacturing performance.
