Goods-in operations in the electronics industry are under increasing pressure. Countless components from a wide range of manufacturers arrive with constantly changing label layouts, multilingual markings and ever shorter throughput times. What could once be managed manually has now become a bottleneck. Damaged barcodes or reflective packaging further increase effort and make processes more error-prone.
Faster deployment, improved throughput and new levels of collaboration have been reported by customers
Demonstrators from the Motion Control, Feeding and Handling sectors showcase components and systems for a wide range of applications from May 26 to 28.

Particularly in the field of precision manufacturing, many companies have neither the necessary personnel nor the corresponding vertical integration to develop mechanics and control systems in parallel. As a result, the supplier's expertise is becoming increasingly important. And this is where Aerotech's real work begins: after a detailed integration consultation, customers receive either individual components, a seamlessly integrated subsystem or a complete automation solution.

The growth opportunities for AI and robotics in manufacturing are vast and projected to reach $182 billion globally by 2027. Companies that fail to adopt these exponentially advancing technologies as part of their process risk falling behind, as smart factories powered by intelligent machines become the norm.
Extension of production and calibration capabilities at the headquarters in Dresden, Germany pave way to future groth
While automating processes using robots is a reliable way to increase production throughput and productivity, the savings in floorspace can vary depending on the type of robot chosen. Where space is at a premium, a ceiling-mounted orbital robot can offer a suitable solution.
Eight cores unlock advanced virtualization potential
To meet net zero CO2 emission goals, the building sector needs to modernize its communication infrastructure. This article shows how single-pair Ethernet, specifically 10BASE-T1L, enables the easy retrofitting of buildings using legacy links like RS-485 to improve digitization, enable automation, improve security, and substantially lower energy consumption to achieve greater sustainability.
