Companies like Voith, NORD, Beckhoff and others presented the latest products and technologies during the event.
In every industry, the phrase "time is money" has never been more accurate. With unscheduled downtime haunting every operation, being prepared, and using various Condition Monitoring techniques is your first line of defense. Some companies use temperature monitoring, vibration monitoring, and noise monitoring--but what about oil analysis?
Analyzing the oil is just the first step since a one-time collection will only show you so much about your gearbox. The key to correctly using your oil analysis data is to trend the data over time.
Automated storage systems are commonly used in warehouses as they offer high storage density and use agile stacker cranes for rapid retrieval and storage of goods. NORD’s solutions for these systems feature drives with precise positioning, high efficiency, compact design, and quiet operation.
This year saw the Hermes Award jury at Hannover Messe, chaired by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Reimund Neugebauer, president of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, award a product ideally suited for applications in the rapidly growing robotics market. The award-winning TUAKA product is a fully integrated drive. New features include the gear unit, the motor and the driver with safety functions. Thanks to the product's sensor technology and thermal management, it is suitable for high-precision, sensitive applications in service robotics as well as for interaction with humans.
