Electric drive technologies enable precise, energy-efficient and flexible automation. They are particularly suitable for dynamic motion profiles, precise positioning tasks and complex control concepts. Their targeted use can reduce energy consumption and cycle times. When combined with pneumatics, exceptionally sustainable solutions can be created for a wide range of requirements in machine and system engineering.
Our highlight products, engineering tools and services show how sustainable automation is already successful today, whether in terms of material and resource efficiency, saving energy or the circular economy
