Robust and versatile encoders from MEGATRON optimize the intralogistics of autonomous transport vehicles. Whether with integrated CAN bus connection, locally programmable teach-in function or energy harvesting: the encoders offer maximum flexibility for the respective application.
Kollmorgen servo motors are now available with a new generation feedback device. Offered at no additional cost over erlier models, this encoder offers four times greater positioning accuracy and uses energy-harvesting technology to track absolute multi-turn positioning even when the system is powered off.
The safety solutions provider has been successful in its digitalisation strategy, which has been helped by international expansion and strategic acquisitions.

As one of the world's most important industrial trade shows, HANNOVER MESSE 2025 sends out positive signals to industry and politics. Artificial intelligence (AI), automation, digitalization and electrification are driving efficiency leaps in industry. Strong impulses are also coming from partner country Canada, which is actively strengthening and expanding transatlantic cooperation in turbulent times.
The supply of a 3,000 hp frequency inverter for large shredder plant at S. Norton Group in Manchester helps with significant reduction in energy consumption
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.
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) has been the hero in the fight against friction and wear for years. However, there is also the other side of the coin: as a persistent material, PTFE is currently the focus of the discussion about a possible PFAS ban by the ECHA. Even if there is no ban, the motion plastics pioneer igus has good reasons to look for alternatives. With new formulations, extensive tests and adapted production processes, igus already offers its customers a wide range of PTFE-free products. Author: Dr-Ing. Magnus Orth is Head of Material Development and the Technical Centre at igus.
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.
With integrated encoders and IP65 protection
The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft will be represented at the world’s largest industrial trade show with a joint booth showcasing highlights from different technological fields.
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.
Easy installation for payload handling up to 20 kg
Modular system with up to 128 I/O channels
Today’s sophisticated industrial robots embody millennia of imagination and decades of engineering effort
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 Hubertus von Monschaw, Global Director Trade Fair and Product Management HANNOVER MESSE at Deutsche Messe AG, about HANNOVER MESSE 2025, which aims to provide impetus in a challenging environment.
