Agricultural autonomy isn’t just about removing the driver; it’s about creating intelligent machines capable of locating themselves, interpreting their surroundings, and acting in real-time, even under challenging conditions.
Wear-free touch-sensitive modules with high response speed for harsh environments
The HARTING Technology Group has generated sales of approximately 1.1 billion euros in the past financial year 2024/25, that ended on 30 September 2025. Adjusted for currency effects, this represents an increase of almost 17 % over the previous year
The Essen-based company Greenflash, in collaboration with STABL Energy, has implemented an intelligent energy system for their joint customer, the duo Giga Coating and System Trailers in the Emsland region. The combination of photovoltaics and energy storage using recycled electric car batteries is controlled by the new AI-based software Greencore AI from Greenflash. This offers advantages to energy-intensive industrial enterprises such as Giga Coating and System Trailers that were hardly viable on this scale in the past.
For advanced safety monitoring in high voltage systems
Up to 100 µs cycle times for 16 axes
Linux power for demanding industrial applications
Valuable energy is lost in pressure reduction stations, exhaust steam pipes and condensation systems. With Energify system, the company CFT GmbH offers a simple and robust solution for the cost-effective conversion of even slight pressure differences into energy. This saves electricity costs and lowers CO₂ emissions. The system performance is controlled precisely with sliding gate valves from Schubert & Salzer.

The modern production facility in Stäfa, featuring highly classified cleanrooms for the semiconductor industry, will be built over the next two and a half years and accompanied by the acquisition of land for an additional office building.
Beyond the data-driven efficiencies of Industry 4.0, a new paradigm is emerging for manufacturers across every industry: Industry 5.0. This next evolution emphasizes a human-centric, resilient, and sustainable approach, calling for a more symbiotic relationship between human workers and intelligent machines.
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.
Siemens launches a one-stop security platform for managing communication connections in OT networks. With virtualized network structures it protects shop floor devices from targeted attacks and unauthorized access.
Automated packaging, which increases machine speed, helps to address labour shortages in packaging lines.
IEN Europe interviewed Marco Calabrese, the Managing Director of Lika Electronic, about customization and trends in encoder development.
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.
The AX-1 robot from Norwegian start-up Kilter applies herbicides to weeds with such precision that the use of chemicals is reduced by up to 95% thanks to AI and sensor technology. To ensure that the autonomous helper is also gentle on the soil, the developers rely on lightweight and lubricationfree linear technology from the igus drylin series.
With design engineers across the globe constantly innovating to meet growing demand for solutions that support an increasingly digitalised environment, expediting product/ solution development times is imperative for business success at both OEMs and system integrators. Increasing numbers are turning to solutions pre-certified for cybersecurity to save time and provide confidence in robust levels of protection against online threats.
