Wittmann is expanding its Primus series with the Primus 10, Primus 26 and Primus 26T robot models.
Motek starts on October 8. The latest trends in the industry can be seen at the trade fair for production and assembly automation - from smart solutions for manual assembly to fully automated assembly systems, accompanied by an extensive supporting program.

Robotics in industrial production
Schmersal has presented the SLC/SLG 445 series of safety light grids and safety light curtains, which are also suitable for welding robots, for example, thanks to an integrated multiple scan function.
In June, Omron presented its new range of Scara robots to a wide audience for the first time. The i4 is characterized by its speed, precision and range of functions.

KBK is presenting a servo-compatible, length-adjustable metal bellows coupling at Motek. It is adjusted without tools and thus retains the properties of a servo coupling.

Robotics in industrial production
Sick offers a broad portfolio of solutions for 2D and 3D localization of parts in automated, robot-assisted handling processes.
A rosy future is predicted for human-robot collaboration. No wonder, as cobots relieve humans of all kinds of work. Kuka is also developing lightweight robots for HRC.
At the Motek in Stuttgart, Werma Signaltechnik is presenting innovative systems for process optimization as well as a concept study for design-oriented signaling.
Interchangeable gripper system for robots
While the assembly of robots used to be done by hand, robots are now taking over this task. Robot assembly at Kuka shows how this works and the role played by Zimmer Group grippers.

With the TracerM laser projector from Faro, assembly and production processes can be controlled quickly, accurately and easily.

Schmersal has revised the position switches of the PS series and is presenting the new generation of standard components at Motek.
Analog to touch and digital to experience: ACE Shock Absorbers presents highlights from its product and service portfolio at Motek, including more and more online tools.

At Motek, Fischertechnik will be presenting its miniature factory lines, which are already demonstrating Industry 4.0 activities in many companies.

Dematic has expanded its portfolio with a robot arm for automated picking. The "Robot Piece Picking Module" independently selects individual items, lifts them and transports them to the designated bins.
Predictive maintenance with Infineon
For over a year, "James" has been stacking 2,400 packaging units per day in two-shift operation - without a break, without resting. In his area of responsibility, the palletizing of packaged cable junction boxes, he has been able to increase process efficiency during this time and at the same time relieve his colleagues of this physically demanding work.

Schmalz has developed a gripper for human-robot collaboration (HRC). It is suitable for intralogistics applications such as end-of-line packaging or pick & place applications.

Esben Østergaard, CTO of Universal Robots, has been honored with the Engelberger Robotics Award 2018. With his invention of the collaborative robotic arm, he has initiated a paradigm shift in robotics.
