Drive technology

What we deliver: We are specialists in mechatronic drives and master many customised variants.

We develop and supply customer-specific mechatronic drives for all your machines’ adjustment axes. We are specialists in automatic format changeover for machines and plants. We supplied the first mechatronic drives way back in 1996 and have been continuously developing our expertise and our products ever since. We create a unique solution for you based on either our existing modular systems, which already offer a wide range of possibilities, or a custom-made product according to your specific requirements. Use our product finder for drive technology to search our modular system and find the optimum device for your application in just a few steps. If you can’t find a suitable product, please contact us to ask about custom-made solutions.

Positioning systems for mechanical engineering

Our positioning systems are used in machines and plants and provide excellent support for automation. Your customers expect you to supply highly flexible machines with minimal retooling times. Format changes should be performed automatically and as quickly as possible. The positioning systems required for this should be reliable and fit the application precisely. In addition, your customers expect optimum machine availability with minimum downtimes. Our positioning systems feature condition monitoring systems that support you in achieving this goal.

However, flexibility and fast retooling times are not the only important factor in the success of production operations. Our comprehensive range of modules for positioning systems allows you to adapt both the bus communication and IP protection class to specific customer wishes – without revisions to the machine design.

Our drives by product families

Positioning systems PSx 3xx

PSE 30x-14 Kachel

Direct drives PSD 4xx

Central idea IT-E-A-M

Our central idea of IT-E-A-M is reflected in each of our products. This is how we achieve highly integrated products that precisely meet our customers' requirements:

Information technology

Even before the term Industry 4.0 was on everyone's lips, we understood that the software of our devices offers great added value. Network capability and the integration of our products into overall systems is standard for us.

Electronics

Electronic components and circuit boards are also part of our products. Thanks to our in-house electronics production, we are able to manufacture a wide range of variants in-house – flexibly and quickly.

Application

The components must be optimally integrated into the application. We have only achieved our goal when everything works together in the application. That's why we communicate strongly with you and want to understand the application in order to deliver suitable products in the end.

The components must be optimally integrated into the application. We have achieved our goal when everything works together in the application. That's why communication with you is very important to us. We really want to understand the application in order to deliver suitable products at the end of the day.

Mechanics

Each of our products includes well thought-out mechanical components.
