Simplification through the reduction of external components
Energy efficiency is not a new trend in the electronics industry. However, demands are growing, driven by rising electricity prices, regulatory pressure as well as the increasing need for energy-efficient components for systems, power electronics, and IoT devices. From November 10 to 13, 2026, the international electronics industry will gather at electronica to discuss the latest trends in energy efficiency.
Siemens to extend its design-to-source intelligence capabilities beyond electronics to standard and custom mechanical parts.
Continuous dew point measurement for industrial applications down to −70 °C Td
Delta announced an infrastructure partnership with Centrica plc (Centrica) to serve the data centre market and energy intensive industries in the UK and Europe, launching with Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) for off-grid energy generation.
Flexible, durable temperature sensing solutions
The event demonstrated that industry is delivering concrete solutions even in challenging times. Artificial intelligence, automation, and digitalization play a key role in making production processes more efficient and boosting competitiveness.
The industrial group receives this coveted innovation prize in recognition of its platform for highly integrated actuators. An independent jury chaired by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Holger Hanselka, President of the Fraunhofer Society, selected the winner from among three nominated companies. The award was presented by Dorothee Bär, Federal Minister for Research, Technology and Space, during the official opening of HANNOVER MESSE on April 19, 2026, in the presence of Federal Chancellor Friedrich Merz.
Precision welding for sensor manufacture
We spoke to Travis Cox (Chief Technology Evangelist, Inductive Automation). He has been with the company since 2004, connecting industry experts, promoting innovation and open standards, and showcasing the capabilities of the Ignition platform.

The conservation organization Project Seagrass and Tandem Ventures have joined forces to design, develop, build, and test an underwater harvesting machine. Onshape enables the team to collaborate in real time, even from a boat.
The development of AI models in joint projects yields improved results because multiple companies contribute their data. The situation becomes critical, however, if a partner withdraws and requests the return of its data. With federated unlearning, Fraunhofer researchers and Fujitsu Research have developed a method for precisely removing data from decentralized AI models.
The integration of physical AI marks a paradigm shift in the manufacturing industry. It directly links AI models with deterministic control technology.
Brady Corporation, a worldwide specialist in industrial identification, launches a range of new industrial barcode readers that achieve 99.995% reading accuracy.
3D printing in companies is booming. Design engineers are printing special components and wear-resistant parts themselves without further ado. However, the projects stand or fall on the quality of the printing material, warns Jonas Burk, Head of Additive Manufacturing at igus. The fact that 3D printing with high-performance polymers from igus is worthwhile is not only proven by the service life tests. Customers can also manufacture their products more economically and faster than injection moulding.
An independent jury comprising top-class experts from political and business communities, research, and the media, chaired by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Holger Hanselka, President of the Fraunhofer Society, has nominated three companies selected from the numerous submissions for the HERMES AWARD. The winner will be announced at the official opening ceremony of HANNOVER MESSE on April 19, 2026. The Federal Minister of Research, Technology and Space, Dorothee Bär, will present the award.

Why smart flow meters pay back fast
We spoke with Dr. Jochen Köckler, CEO of Deutsche Messe AG, about the upcoming HANNOVER MESSE (April 20–24).
With HANNOVER MESSE 2026, fron April 20 to 24, artificial intelligence (AI) in industry becomes tangible. In a practical and application-oriented way, the trade fair demonstrates how manufacturing companies can profitably use AI. With a consistent AI focus, the fair shows how today’s challenges can be transformed into concrete competitive advantages – while offering companies and visitors even greater orientation and value.
Danube Dynamics and Aspöck Systems automate complex lamp inspections using adaptive AI and IDS industrial cameras to ensure accuracy, flexibility and full traceability under real production conditions.
Eleven women honored as they are shaping the future of robotics
As the largest foreign exhibitor at Embedded World 2026 in Nuremberg from March 10 to 12, Taiwan will present a broad range of AI-driven innovations in electronics and computing.
Fraunhofer project for better recycling processes of paper packaging
Automated identification and data capture specialist Brady Corporation lets users read and generate barcodes professionally with a smartphone - at no extra cost.
Highly efficient drives for reduce energy and resource consumption
Advanced real-time production monitoring and digital manufacturing optimization
Reactive robotics has delivered enormous efficiency gains for industry. But the technology is reaching its economic limits: systems that only respond to the current state scale speed – but not stability. As process complexity grows, small misjudgements lead to costly downtime. Sereact is now introducing Cortex 2.0, a new generation of AI that evaluates the consequences of actions in advance and eliminates errors before they occur. The economic potential is immense.
HANNOVER MESSE 2026 (April 20 to 24) starts with a new, clearly structured thematic and site concept. The main exhibition areas are Automation & Digitalization, Energy & Industrial Infrastructure, and Research & Technology Transfer. The topic of artificial intelligence is a common thread running through all exhibition areas.
