Abstract
The production system comprises a lift and carry device (6) and a handling unit (9) each actuated by an electric motor (13, 14), the two motors being synchronized. The rectangular walking beam lift and carry cycle of the products (1) is perfected by modulation of the speeds limiting the impacts exerted on the product. The vertical movement (M1-M2; M3-M4) of the movable walking beam support (11) present an intermediate low-speed phase corresponding to contact or placing of the product to limit impacts.
