With the collaborative rope balancer, Schmalz has developed a new lifting system. It is ergonomically designed, easy to operate and equipped with intelligent functions for controlling and monitoring the handling process and for networking the device.

Compact and precise - Steinmeyer Mechatronik from Dresden has developed a solution for inspection systems and microscopy with the HT KT210 cross and lift table combination.
Camera-based positioning sensor. High-bay warehouses are constantly in motion due to different loading conditions, temperature-related expansion or manufacturing tolerances.

The new MACM series centering units from SMC make it possible to precisely position heavy loads with small cylinders. They can carry heavy loads weighing up to one tonne and move them in all directions with a centering accuracy of plus/minus one millimetre.
Rotary table for machine tools
When it comes to positioning workpieces in machine tools, precision is required - whether they weigh tons or just a few grams. Turners, rotary tables or two-axis swivel devices are the heart of a machining center. Applications in aircraft construction show just how powerful these sub-assemblies are.

Lifting columns are indispensable for many applications in medical technology, the packaging industry, logistics and car production. As a component of ergonomic workstation systems, they also help to increase efficiency in many companies.

Small servo motors. Travel speeds of up to 900 millimetres per second are possible with the new "short-stroke dynamic" version of the Cyber Dynamic Line from Wittenstein cyber motor.

Jakob Antriebstechnik improves the inner workings of mechanical power amplifiers and introduces the SC power clamping screw. The special feature is a special wedge clamping system that acts as a force amplifier.

With the Multilift II safety, RK Rose+Krieger is adding a fifth variant to its product family of electrically movable Multilift II lifting columns. The manufacturer designed the Multilift II safety specifically for overhead applications in media and industrial technology.
