3D printing in companies is booming. Design engineers are printing special components and wear-resistant parts themselves without further ado. However, the projects stand or fall on the quality of the printing material, warns Jonas Burk, Head of Additive Manufacturing at igus. The fact that 3D printing with high-performance polymers from igus is worthwhile is not only proven by the service life tests. Customers can also manufacture their products more economically and faster than injection moulding.
We spoke with Dr. Jochen Köckler, CEO of Deutsche Messe AG, about the upcoming HANNOVER MESSE (April 20–24).
For reduced noise and increased control efficiency regardless of motor type
Operational life of up to 500k cycles and IP67 protection
When it comes to the world of motion control, it’s easy to take your feedback device for granted. After all, it’s a small part of the system and is typically tucked inside the motor housing, out of sight and out of mind. However, the impact this seemingly minor component has on a system’s accuracy, performance, reliability, and ease of integration is hard to overstate.
Automated packaging, which increases machine speed, helps to address labour shortages in packaging lines.
Never change a running system – a wise saying in the IT world that is also followed by other disciplines. Nevertheless, it is often worthwhile to challenge existing concepts, as shown by the example of power electronics. Suitably dimensioned thermal management solutions can significantly improve the performance and life of electronic components, together with increased cost-effectiveness.
Compact Redundancy Model for simple parallel operation
High power in compact, low-noise package
After years of use, many traction batteries still have a residual capacity of between 70 and 80 percent. While this may be too little for further use in vehicles, some cells could still serve well in large storage systems for households, businesses, or utility providers. Shredding used modules or entire high-voltage storage systems would thus waste valuable resources.
Adaptive, real-time control in a high-mix, temperature-sensitive environment - this was the challenge faced by Rutland Plastics in automating the insertion of M8 brass inserts into plastic assemblies with a heat-staking process.

Laser triangulation sensors measure variables such as displacement, distance and position on a non-contact, wear-free basis. The most important sensor features are high performance, a compact design and the ability to stabilize the signal with changing surfaces. Micro-Epsilon has now equipped its sensors with the advanced IO-Link interface to network multiple sensors in the factory.
For easier quality assurance during pressing, assembly and testing
Wibu-Systems will exhibit at Hannover Messe (Hall 16, D10) to showcase its innovative cybersecurity solutions.
Today, vision sensors can be used to implement first-class solutions for many sensor tasks in production, quality assurance, logistics, packaging, and beyond. Raw data sensors offer the greatest possible flexibility in terms of adaptation to special requirements and customer wishes. On the customer side, however, this is associated with a comparatively high programming effort. The SmartRunner Explorer 2-D and 3-D device family from Pepperl+Fuchs shows that this does not have to be the case.
We spoke to Torsten Czech, Head of Marketing at Optris, about the history of more than 20 years of temperature measurement.
Dimensioning and sizing for linear ballscrew axes
From driving a pump to actuating an injector, medical devices that provide patient treatment rely on motion systems. Dependent on the profile of the medication, the environment of use, and the needs of the patient, these devices could be disposable, intended for one-time use, or reusable. This decision directly impacts the motion system specification, so to ensure a smooth development process and quality patient outcome, motion design should be involved at the earliest opportunity.
All-in-one interface for control and visualization
nokra GmbH of Baesweiler produces laser measuring systems for contactless measurement of geometric properties as an integral part of the production process. Since the objects being measured can become quite hot, effective thermal management is essential in such systems. This task is performed by extremely flat liquid-cooled heat sinks from CTX Thermal Solutions.
