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
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.
Precisely tailored to the requirements of automated industrial processes
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.

Digitalization is opening up new possibilities in robotics and mechanical engineering. Networked ecosystems, intelligent components and smart services are the key to unlocking huge potential in terms of productivity, efficiency, process reliability, maintenance and availability. Gearboxes play a special role in this. Nabtesco, the world's largest manufacturer of precision gearboxes, knows the challenges and offers unique solutions for the digital transformation of industry.
Körber is expanding its portfolio with AI-based pick-and-place technology from Sereact. The partnership focuses on integrating robotic solutions for single item picking into automated production and distribution solutions. An initial joint project with a German mechanical engineering company is already in progress.
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.
Coated and stainless-steel motors for the food industry
Drive-integrated protection function for maximum availability
Robust and compact with an arc-free design and extended switching cycles for a long and safe product life
Predictive maintenance prevents unplanned downtime. Fixed maintenance intervals, however, are preventive in nature, as true prediction requires real-time system status information and intelligent data evaluation. The Digital Twin Starter Kit from Bosch Digital Twin Industries and Pepperl+Fuchs offers an easy way to get started.
Whether you’re talking about hybrid regional jets to next-generation air taxis it’s increasingly clear that the future of flight is electric, and electromechanical (EM) actuation is playing a central role in making this a reality. As aircraft systems move away from hydraulics and pneumatics in favor of all-electric architectures.
The I/O module controls stepper motors with Modbus/TCP, Ethernet/IP, or PROFINET interface to host PC, PLC or PAC
According to the International Society of Automation, factories worldwide lose 5-20% of their productive capacity to unplanned downtime. With supply chain disruptions increasing, Mitsubishi Electric's predictive maintenance solutions help manufacturers identify equipment failures before they occur, maintaining operational continuity.
