"A world in which designers have all the tools they need to automate routine tasks. A world in which designers concentrate on what only people can do best: Creativity and innovation," is the vision of Axel Zein, CEO of WSCAD Germany. His company has already exhibited at Smart Automation Austria on several occasions - and will do so again this time.

The digital transformation and the intelligent networking of production and logistics are making sustainable progress. SEW-Eurodrive shows just how much this transformation is also changing production. "SEW's Driveradar concept is used to ensure that components, solutions and the entire system can also be monitored during operation. With Driveradar, the company is presenting scalable services for the smart factory," explains Martin Krinninger, Head of SEW-Eurodrive's technical office in Linz.

New among the exhibitors is Universal Robots with Managing Director and General Manager Western Europe, Helmut Schmid: "Automation and robotics are no longer reserved for large corporations. Collaborating robots such as those from Universal Robots also give small and medium-sized companies in any industry the opportunity to benefit from the advantages of automation. This potential must be exploited - and Smart Automation Austria is the ideal platform for us to do so. Together with our Austrian partner Softwerk, we will be represented at the trade fair for the first time this year." Faulhaber Austria will also be present in Linz for the first time with Regional Sales Manager for Austria and Slovenia, Martin Kellner: "After a successful debut at Smart Automation in Vienna, Faulhaber is now making its first appearance in the heart of Austrian industry. This is also the right time to present our new external rotor high-performance drives with innovative winding technology. (...)". as
