In many industrial manufacturing operations, randomly arranged and non-positioned parts are picked from a inlet belt conveyor, tray or preparation table. They are then further processed, separated or fed to a machine. Automated handling using robots, grippers and vision systems is demanding and requires experience in image processing, lighting and process technology. With its 2D Grasping Kit, SCHUNK is now offering a complete solution that makes it much easier to get started with automated object handling. Automated to optimal grip The perfectly matched application kit for gripping and placing non-position-oriented workpieces consists of a camera system and lens, an application-specific gripping system, SCHUNK's own industrial PC (SVC) as well as a plug-in for easy integration into the robot control system. The core of the system is the AI software developed by SCHUNK, which ensures reliably recognition, even under changing light conditions. All components in the kit are precisely matched to each other and are process reliable.

Both modules plug into the slice-based X20 system and increase the system’s versatility by providing support for different motor and encoder types from the same module.

The TURCK Intelligent Vision (TIV) AI camera brings artificial intelligence directly to the production line. The self-learning camera processes image data for code recognition, quality control, classification, or process monitoring locally and in real time—without additional hardware or complex programming.

Discover a new dimension of cable asset management with AIXONID. AIXONID makes it easy to digitally manage cables and cable-related components within your company. With state-of-the-art RFID technology, a cloud-based platform, and an intuitive mobile app, cables and other components can be uniquely captured, tagged, assigned, and tracked. This allows you to always know where a cable is used, what status it has, which properties it features, and how it is documented. AIXONID helps you to: Uniquely identify cables Simplify assembly and service processes Keep technical documentation readily accessible Never miss critical deadlines Ensure quality and safety standards Maintain full visibility of project costs, inventory, and life cycles Optimize workflows in production, service, warehouse, and project management Especially in industries such as industrial automation, mechanical and plant engineering, energy, infrastructure, or aerospace, AIXONID delivers real value—where cables are complex, numerous, and safety-critical. Experience live at our booth how AIXONID makes your cable management smarter, more efficient, and more secure.

The RIVCLINCH® joining system is a process for joining metal sheets by means of selective cold forming—without the use of fasteners or filler materials. Joining is achieved by interlocking two or more metal layers. The RIVCLINCH® technology is a cost-effective, environmentally friendly process for joining steel and stainless steel sheets, as well as aluminum and/or non-ferrous metals. We now also offer this efficient process in a fully automated version.

Our RIVKLE® setting heads enable automation of the processing of blind rivet nuts and screws. RIVKLE® feeding is carried out on vibratory spiral conveyors or other distribution systems. Process control is also integrated. RIVKLE® blind rivet nuts and screws with hexagonal shanks can be fed without any problems and processed in all spatial positions, even overhead.

The Balluff Engineering Tool enables manufacturer-independent, centralized configuration and management of IO-Link networks. With automatic device discovery, simplified parameterization and port setting, backup and restore functions, and integrated testing and documentation capabilities, the Balluff Engineering Tool reduces complexity, saves valuable time during planning and commissioning, and minimizes downtime risks. This makes the use of IO-Link networks not only more efficient but also safer and more transparent. The Balluff Engineering Tool is used for commissioning, configuring, managing, testing, and documenting IO-Link topologies. It is available free of charge and compatible with all IO-Link devices conforming to the IO-Link standard, including all IO-Link network modules that are JSON-for-IO-Link compatible and the Balluff IO-Link USB module.

The Cajo Tailor 2.5D™ laser marking system is designed for integration into production lines and built for reliable 24/7 operation. It replaces conventional marking methods such as inkjet printing and enables the permanent marking of metals, plastics, and coated materials.

The comX 90 communication module has been designed for integration into field devices to provide network connectivity, for example, to drives or robots. All communication tasks are executed autonomously within the module – independently of the processor of the target device. Process data is exchanged via an SPI interface. The embedded module combines integrated hardware and software components to meet the requirements of IEC 62443, thereby significantly enhancing cybersecurity at the field level. comX supports all leading Real-Time Ethernet protocols in slave mode and meets all network-specific requirement within a single module. To support a line topology, the module has two Ethernet ports. To switch protocols quickly and reliably, simply load the corresponding firmware. - The integrated Hilscher netX SoC ensures a 10-year delivery guarantee. - One hardware design for all Industrial Ethernet and IIoT networks - CRA-compliant replacement for COMX 51CA-RE with SPI host interface, no redesign required - Fast time-to-market with a complete slave interface and "onboard" network connector - IIoT-ready for additional use cases such as condition monitoring or predictive maintenance - Energy-efficient design with 65% lower power loss - Harmonized hardware, firmware, and tools for cyber-secure industrial communication
