About AFB Anlagen- und Filterbau
AFB Anlagen- und Filterbau GmbH & Co. KG has been developing and producing load-handling devices for transport and conveyor technology at its headquarters in Haiger for over 50 years. The product portfolio includes telescopic tables (Miniload, Mediload, Maxiload), rotating telescopic forks, rotating telescopic tables, lifting systems such as vertical conveyors and eccentric lifting tables, shuttling trolleys as well as pull systems and special devices for loads from 20 kg to over 50 tonnes. The products made of steel and aluminium are used as turnkey, customer-specific solutions on customers' stacker cranes, shuttle systems and automated guided vehicles as well as on the company's own shuttling trolleys, among other applications in temperature ranges from -35 °C and for load temperatures up to +400 °C. Know-how from over 15,000 customer applications flows into the development of tailored solutions; the products are sold in more than 30 countries worldwide. The offering is complemented by retrofit, repair and maintenance, original spare parts and special tools (AFB TOOLkit), training as well as commissioning.
