Sensor-controlled tools make metal processing observable and controllable

Together with Visual Components, the KUKA Group is advancing the development of simulation-controlled solutions – from planning to virtual commissioning to operation. The goal is to optimize processes early, reduce risks, and significantly accelerate the implementation of complex automation projects.

SCHUNK relies on strategic partnerships to bring intelligent automation to industrial applications faster. At the Hannover Messe 2026, SCHUNK demonstrated how Physical AI, robotics, and smart factory solutions can be specifically transferred to production environments.

KASTO has rethought smart material flow: KASTOsort tower enables personless processing in a compact space.

On the occasion of the 100th company anniversary, GROB sets a significant milestone in digital manufacturing.

Six days a week, around the clock: In Poing, two HERMLE C 650 U machining centers precisely machine components for Canon Production Printing. The 5-axis machines with the automated handling system HS flex heavy turn night into day – fully automated series production instead of manual single part machining.

With the KR TITAN ultra, KUKA expands its portfolio for demanding heavy-duty applications.

The machine factory Berthold HERMLE AG invites you to the traditional HERMLE Open House from April 21 to 24, 2026, at the technology and training center at the headquarters in Gosheim, providing close-up insights through comprehensive factory tours.

DMG MORI has introduced the 3rd generation of the flexible robot solution Robo2Go

AMAG components Karlsruhe GmbH relies on automation: The pallet changer PW 3000 supplies the 5-axis machining center C 62 UP with material. By separating the setup of the machine from the actual machining, the spindle runs significantly longer – and productivity noticeably increases.

EU-funded project aims to develop and validate intelligent and flexible production systems that integrate multiple autonomous actors – including cobots, AGVs, and human workers. Comau, a specialist in automation solutions, has been tasked with developing collaborative solutions for applications in aerospace and additive manufacturing.

The current economic situation has been increasingly assessed as critical since 2018. The future expectations of the automatica exhibitors remain at a consistently high level.
