Defence and safety

Component systems for the security of Europe

Geopolitical challenges place great demands on the supply of critical goods in Europe. 

Production lines must produce faster, run more stable for longer, and work more precisely. 

Speed, traceability, and a robust system architecture are factors that contribute to our security – 
especially when it is crucial that production chains function smoothly.
 

For almost four decades, we have been developing component systems for demanding industrial applications. 

Today, we are increasingly involved in projects in the defence sector – as a European solution and service partner 
for high-level component systems – working closely with OEMs and special machine manufacturers. 

• Almost 40 years of automation
• Measurable quality
• Dual use
• Focus on cam technology
• High-level component systems
• Global footprint 

Cam mechanisms for extreme demands

Our cam technology enables high-precision motion sequences that operate with extreme reliability even at high speeds. 

High acceleration, short cycle times, and a reproducible process quality are its hallmarks – key requirements for applications in safety-critical environments.

With its own development, manufacturing, and system integration capabilities, TAKTOMAT is one of the world's 
leading specialists in cam-controlled high-performance mechanics. 

Three areas of expertise

Whether high-performance components, targeted optimization, or engineering with partners – we develop automation solutions for manufacturing that deliver reliably. Especially where defence-related goods are produced under tight time, quality, and stability requirements.

High-speed component systems

Our high-level systems support high-speed production processes that meet demanding technical and documentary requirements.

• High speed
• Maximum load capacity
• High performance (OEE, cycle time, FPY)
• Reliability in operation
• Process chaining
• Modular design
   

Technology Consulting and optimization

We analyse systems, identify performance reserves, and increase output. Our validated components and KPI evidence (OEE, cycle time, FPY) help to increase performance and reduce risks.

• Identify performance potential
• KPI-based target values
• Prioritized measures and retrofit paths
• Reduced integration effort
   

Co-Engineering & Dual Use

Early co-engineering with partners enables flexible systems for safety-related applications.

 The transfer of best practices from almost 40 years of experience creates dual-use added value – 
technological synergies that increase performance, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness at the same time.

• Greater planning reliability
• Faster implementation
• Dual-use capability
• Know-how transfer
• Improved cost-effectiveness
   

High-level components for high performance

High speed, precise movement, reliable continuous operation – TAKTOMAT systems work even under extreme conditions – with smooth motion profiles, high repeatability, and minimal maintenance requirements.

High-speed ammunition production 

The video shows a high-precision production line for ammunition components.

A linear transfer system guides the components steadily through the stations, a rotary table positions them with precise timing, and pick-and-place modules take care of the precise handling. Harmonic motion profiles enable short cycle times, smooth processes, and a significant increase in line performance of up to 30 %.
