Since life began some 1 billion years ago, an intricate web of cycles and relationships has developed. Sunlight is the only input, and nothing is wasted. For the electrical industry, adopting a more circular approach to manufacturing can advance sustainability and offer unique economic opportunities, say Fernando Nuño and Bruno De Wachter, members of the advisory board for electrical manufacturing trade show, CWIEME Berlin.
The HERMES AWARD, one of the world's most coveted industry prizes, was presented by Cem Özdemir, Germany’s Federal Minister of Education and Research at the opening ceremony of HANNOVER MESSE on 30 March 2025.
he Packaging Competence Centre (PCC) is a joint venture between packaging machinery manufacturer Gerhard Schubert GmbH and Berlin-based packaging consultancy Berndt+Partner Group. The new organisation brings together experts in the fields of regulation, packaging design, materials and automation technology to support manufacturers to develop and implement sustainable packaging.
Support for every stage of the maintenance cycle
After three decades of continuity at the top of the company, Pepperl+Fuchs is now repositioning itself: Dr.-Ing. Gunther Kegel, CEO for many years, and Werner Guthier, CFO, are stepping down from the Executive Board as planned.

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.
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.

10 billion dollar acquisition of Altair Engineering Inc. to strengthen Siemens’ position in industrial software and AI
Electrochemical sensing technology in a compact form factor
Studying neutrinos is very difficult as they typically pass through most normal matter unimpeded and undetected. Specialist detectors have to be built to hunt for them. The latest one is called JUNO, located 750m below ground in Jiangmen, China. The project is made possible by 17 different countries with 730 scientists working in 74 Universities and national laboratories. To develop the core part of the detector, the liquid scintillator, ultrafast digitizer cards by Spectrum Instrumentation are used.
Electricity from renewable sources plays a crucial role in the energy transition. As sun and wind are only available depending on the time of day and the weather, green electricity cannot be generated at all times. This makes battery storage systems indispensable for a stable grid in the future. These storage systems are highly complex technological systems that require a great deal of expertise. LAPP is an expert in the necessary connection solutions and offers companies a comprehensive service.

Acceleration of development for sustainable battery industry
Setting milestones in software for automation
For the highest requirements on measurement precision
Machines and systems are becoming more and more intelligent – and in many cases more complex as a result. This makes it all the more important that the processes in production are transparent and comprehensible at all times so that the teams in production and maintenance can make the right decisions. This is the only way to exploit the full potential of networked manufacturing environments.

When testing wheelchairs, manufacturers play it safe for understandable reasons. That is why three aspiring mechanical engineers took no risks when they developed a drop test construction for wheelchairs on behalf of the renowned German company MEYRA. They relied on miniature shock absorbers made by ACE to protect the inner life of their construction.
