By combining the vehicle concept, which is unique in the industry, with the latest safety features, the goods handling specialist is currently demonstrating at the World of Material Handling (WoMH) industry event in Mannheim the wide range of options that fleet operators have today to make their operations even safer and their forklift fleets more productive.

Automatica 2018

Industry meets Intelligence

Intelligent automation concepts and robotics solutions are the focus of Automatica in Munich. In addition to technological developments in the field of intelligent production, the role of humans in the factory of the future will also be discussed.

Fraunhofer IIS

Intelligent sensors for batch size one

In the course of Industry 4.0, production is becoming more individualized - the goal is batch size one. Fraunhofer IIS is developing communication for cognitive sensors and systems so that processes can be interlinked, application-specific data exchanged and workflows optimized.

People in the workplace

Manual assembly networked in future

Workplace systems are also changing with the comprehensive transformation of industrial production structures. Handling editor-in-chief Petra Born spoke to Jan Willem Jongert, CEO of Bott, about requirements and trends.

HANNOVER TRADE FAIR 2018

The digital transformation hovers over everything

HANNOVER MESSE 2018 is history, but its topics such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, industrial IT platforms, the expansion of power grids for electromobility, the use of robotics and autonomous systems in production and intralogistics and the role of people in the networked factory are shaping the present and the future.

HANNOVER TRADE FAIR 2018

The factory of the future

Robots that adapt to their human counterparts, AR glasses that provide their wearer with information and learning machines that optimize themselves. "The factory of the future is a thinking factory with people at its heart," says Dr. Jochen Köckler, CEO of Deutsche Messe, summarizing the core message of HANNOVER MESSE 2018.

MRK planning

Closing the methodological gap

Planning joint workstations for humans and robots. The planning and integration of robot systems with which humans can work together safely in ongoing production processes is still complicated.

Measuring and testing systems

In step with automation

Automated measurement and testing technology. Networked measurement technology plays an important role in quality assurance from the perspective of Industry 4.0. Heitec develops testing devices for measuring workpieces and detecting defects for automotive suppliers.
