Bonnet & Hood Handling
Large, Painted & Fitment-Critical Handling
Bonnets/hoods are large, surface-sensitive panels with irregular contours. On fast-moving assembly lines, the challenge isn’t just lifting, it’s maintaining a stable grip, aligning accurately to hinges and latches, and placing the panel without scratches, dents, or edge damage. Manual handling can slow fitment, create alignment variation, and risk surface damage that leads to rework.
Industrial Manipulators & Vacuum Lifters for Bonnets / Hoods
Fine Handling delivers bonnet handling systems that combine industrial manipulators / air balancers with application-specific vacuum grippers and customised interfaces. Our solutions enable controlled lifting, stable orientation, and repeatable placement, while allowing height and positioning to be set for operator comfort and variant needs. This supports consistent fit-up quality and stable cycle time across shifts.
Safer handling. Faster placement. Predictable line flow.
