Energy management in press lines
Strothmann's automation solutions for press lines are individually tailored and guarantee high availability and a long service life - requirements that the installed cable carrier systems from Tsubaki Kabelschlepp must also meet.
With a combination of all-electric and standardized handling and linear motor modules from Afag, packaging technology specialist Brunner is giving its systems greater flexibility of use and application.

Heidrive is also presenting Heimotion servomotors for warehouse logistics. These high-performance, compact servomotors become the perfect drive unit for AGVs thanks to their attached planetary or cycloidal gearboxes.

KEB offers the servomotors of the new DL3 series for highly dynamic motion tasks.
Engine for experimental space travel
Students at Delft University of Technology (Netherlands) will launch their Stratos III solid-fuel rocket into orbit on July 24 - and are aiming to set a new European altitude record. Installed in the rocket: a DC servo motor from Faulhaber.
The crew of the Horizons mission, which recently set off for the International Space Station (ISS), has Faulhaber motors on board. They are used to power the astronaut assistant Cimon, which was trained using voice samples and photos of ESA astronaut Alexander Gerst, among other things.
Hybrid cables for servo motors. Single-cable solutions for servo motors are becoming increasingly popular as they save costs and installation effort. Helukabel presented Topserv, a standard cable, in spring 2014.

B&R is further developing the 8LS servo motor series. The new size five motors in lengths A/B/C fit into the existing 8LS product line. They enable higher performance and thus complement the product line in the medium range.
Automation and control of a film bag machine
A film bag machine can produce plastic bags, pouches and bags in a wide variety of designs. Baumüller was commissioned to design a new, cost-optimized, efficient and future-proof film bag machine.
