Speed and precision count in intralogistics. A manufacturer of innovative storage and retrieval systems therefore relies on rack and pinion gears from Leantechnik in its equipment. They enable the high-precision positioning of transport boxes in a supporting structure of stacked load carriers.
Advanced communication at field level
Gefran is expanding its range of solutions for Industry 4.0: the new pressure sensors in the KS-I series have a digital IO-Link 1.1 output and advanced diagnostic functions. They measure pressure and temperature at a high sampling rate of 1,000 s/s. This allows them to communicate with the IO-Link master at the maximum available speed for IO-Link communication of 230.4 kBaud or COM3.

Euchner celebrates the topping-out ceremony for its new main building at its headquarters in Leinfelden-Echterdingen. This marks an important step in the family-owned company's construction project, which will provide more space for further growth. The first workstations should be ready for occupancy in fall 2023.
ANT Antriebstechnik has significantly expanded its selection of types and variants of worm gear screw jacks and high-speed screw jacks. Together with platform specialist TraceParts, the company is currently developing a CAD-compatible online configurator for design engineers, which will go live at Motek.
Where high voltage is present, every detail counts. Burrs on insulators are therefore not a cosmetic problem. Until now, the burrs had to be removed by hand. A system from the Franconian special machine company Potzi now automates this process as far as possible.
At Formnext, ULT will be presenting a new solution for effective and flexible process gas cleaning as well as concepts for dedusting during post-processing.
The growing degree of automation in production is creating new requirements for machine safety and the associated safety technology. The topic of connectivity plays an important role here.
The 40th Motek will take place from October 4 to 7 at the Stuttgart Exhibition Center at the airport. It is flanked by the Bondexpo bonding technology trade fair.
Small shock absorbers protect linear axes in the semiconductor industry.
At Motek, Weiss will be presenting solutions for the linear and rotary movement of workpieces that can be easily integrated into the overall system of hardware and software.
