TOKYO, Japan, Dec 2, 2025 – DMG MORI CO., LTD. (hereinafter referred to as “DMG MORI”) has developed its next-generation automation system “MATRIS WPH” for flexible workpiece and pallet handling to support your production.
In recent years, the increase of high-mix, low-volume production has greatly advanced process integration and automation. However, small lot sizes and frequent fixture changes pose a challenge to long-period unmanned production of multiple types of workpieces only by automating workpiece handling. On the other hand, the automation of pallet handling remains difficult, too, as customers face increased costs from the need to purchase fixtures according to the number of pallets in use.
MATRIS WPH is our newly developed automation package system that addresses these challenges by combining the handling of workpieces and pallets in a single system for flexible production. Its robot comes in two variants: the MATRIS WPH 70 (with max. payload of 70 kg) and the MATRIS WPH 210 (with max. payload of 210 kg*1). The system is controlled via the DMG MORI Automation Controller next to the drawer stocker and offers an intuitive user interface for no-code robot operation and operating status checks. In addition, MATRIS WPH is equipped with movable storage shelves for various types of fixtures, a workable setup station, and a large-capacity drawer stocker. Thanks to the smart system design and the use of automatic robot teaching by touch probes, customers can look forward to swift system start-up in half the time than previous MATRIS models.
DMG MORI will exhibit MATRIS WPH at EMO 2025 at the Hannover International Trade Fair in Germany from September 22 to 26. For further information, please take a look at our product catalog and EMO 2025 digital twin showroom.*2
