About Ruegenberg
Roland Ruegenberg GmbH is a manufacturer of production systems and special machinery based in Bad Sobernheim. The team of development, electrical and production engineers implements custom machines and fully automated production systems – from consulting and analysis of the task through development, design and simulation to system and control engineering, control cabinet construction, programming, precision CNC machining, assembly, commissioning and service. Core competencies are the patented contact-free extraction of products from conveyor belts (e.g. ejection in biscuit production) and the GRIMP seaming process for seaming sheets as an alternative to spot welding. Further products include the Ruegenberg radial gripper, hot stamping and screen printing machines (R-Druck), blister packaging systems and carton erectors. Industries are automotive, food industry, handling and logistics, medical technology, welding technology and soldering as well as the packaging industry.
