A technology developed by Acona Hydraulik and Industrieforschung Wirsing enables both cooperation partners to produce more durable, more powerful and more climate-friendly hydraulic cylinders.

The drive specialist Nord Drivesystems is continuing its growth and success story.

Companies that are renovating or converting their production halls often shut down their entire production for weeks. Not so at Druckhaus Mainfranken in Kesselsdorf.
With new turbo compressors, a chemical company saves around 2 million kWh of energy per year - around 20 percent compared to the energy requirements of the old compressed air supply. TheCO2 footprint has also been significantly reduced. The rotary drum dryers, which efficiently regenerate the desiccant with the heat generated during the compression process, also contribute to this.

Axel Grigoleit, Key Market Manager Machine Tools at Hawe Hydraulik, talks about digitalization and miniaturization in hydraulics as well as technical progress in the industry.

With the LVM series, SMC already offers a wide range of compact and directly actuated 2/2 and 3/2-way solenoid valves and has now added a tube and two flange versions to the wide range of variants.

Universal Robots reports record annual sales of USD 311 million. This corresponds to sales growth of 41% compared to the previous year and a total of 23% more than before the pandemic in 2019.
The modeling of compliant and fluidic effects in automated gripping increases development efficiency, freedom from damage, process productivity and reliability in the industrial handling of delicate objects.

Autonomous systems and networked controls
In today's manufacturing processes, machines and systems are becoming increasingly autonomous, intelligent and powerful. This applies above all to the end devices and tools used, which are necessary for process tasks.
