Automation
Legacy Built. Future Driven.
At Braner USA, we’ve spent decades engineering some of the most trusted coil processing equipment in the industry. Our foundation is built on rugged machinery, smart design, and a relentless commitment to long-term performance. Today, that legacy is evolving—we’re engineering for what’s next.
As manufacturers face growing challenges—from skilled labor shortages to rising operating costs—automation has become more than an advantage; it’s a necessity. That’s why Braner is embracing automation at every level of our business, providing solutions that prioritize safety, efficiency, and productivity.
Braner’s strength isn’t just in what we build—it’s in how we engineer solutions.
We integrate technologies that simplify production, minimize operator dependency, and reduce downtime. From robotic debanding at coil loading stations and automatic separator setups, to slitting, cut-to-length and slit coil packaging automation, real-time system feedback, and shift/maintenance reporting, we’re bringing intelligent automation to every point in your process.
We collaborate with technology leaders and automation specialists to push beyond the limitations of traditional machinery. Whether it’s robotic dunnage placement in the stacker, stick placement on slit coils, or tooling robots on our turret slitting heads—the fastest head change system in the industry—we’re helping our customers unlock a new level of performance.
Some of our automation enhancements include:
- Robotic tooling:
Tool changes take time, put a strain on employees and slow down production. - Our solution:
Automated processes tailored to your specific slitting line. - Braner partners with NLT Automation to develop automation solutions.
- Slitter-setup-robots take care of tool changes on the slitting line fully automatically – saving time, reducing sources of error and noticeably relieving your employees.
- Additional modules such as automatic washing systems or knife edge control units increase the degree of automation and ensure consistently stable processes – without any manual intervention.
- Whether for new or existing plants: our solutions adapt flexibly to your circumstances, regardless of tool sizes or space constraints.
- Automatic coil loading.
- Automatic operator Set-up
- Automatic separator postioning
- Operatorless banding
- Robotic stacker dunnage placement
- Smart shears with automatic blade gap and rake angle adjustment
- Intelligent levelers for consistent, repeatable flatness
- Shift reporting, downtime tracking, maintenance reporting and remote diagnostics
- And it’s all backed by Braner’s core strengths
