CNG Tank Handling
Heavy, Cylindrical & Insertion-Critical Handling
CNG cylinders are heavy (typically ~70 kg) and must be lifted, carried, oriented, and inserted in tight underbody spaces - without accidental contact with the vehicle body. On production lines, Plant Heads look for predictable insertion time, safe handling, and zero damage risk, because even a small bump or uncontrolled swing can slow the station and create rework.
Manipulators & Automation Solutions for CNG Tank Handling
Fine Handling delivers industrial manipulators engineered for safe, repeatable CNG tank handling on factory-fitted CNG vehicle lines. Our specialist vacuum-based gripper safely grips the tank circumference. For added safety after lifting, a belt + clamp mechanism with a clamping indicator secures the cylinder and supports smooth insertion across a large handling zone, from pick-up to final placement. The system is designed to handle different tank lengths, sizes, and diameters efficiently, while keeping movement stable in compact spaces.
Damage-free handling with ergonomic control - built for takt time.
