About Grün & Köder
Grün & Köder GmbH Production Technology and Automation, based in Stuttgart, has been developing, designing, manufacturing, and distributing machinery and systems for production technology and automation since 1977. The company specializes in custom machine building, realizing individual automation solutions for assembly, testing, packaging, and handling – from manual workstations for complex components to fully automated high-performance plants with annual output of several million pieces. The portfolio includes assembly lines ranging from individual stations to lines with up to 20,000 parts per hour, testing and sorting systems with camera technology, hardness testing, leak tests, and 3D analysis, packaging machines for bags, cartons, and KLT, as well as robot cells for pick & place, component retrieval, and vision systems. Mechanics, electrical engineering, and software are developed entirely in-house up to commissioning. Customers come from Automotive, Electronics, Pharma/Medical Technology, Consumer Goods, Packaging, Testing Technology, and Food. Installations are located in Europe, the USA, China, and South America; a global technical support including maintenance, spare parts service, and remote maintenance complements the offering.
