Mechanical engineering

Mechanical engineering is one of the leading industries in developing and applying high-tech products, mostly producing small series or unique pieces. Most of the portfolios comprise hardware but also a growing share of services. International competition, scarce resources, energy costs, but also sustainability and climate change are current challenges of this industry and its logistics. The industry needs well-thought solutions that handle loads efficiently and safely and that operate reliably, also in adverse conditions.

Requirements in mechanical engineering

• Precision: Safe handling of expensive components
• Compactness: Operation in production facilities and in tight spaces
• Availability: Avoiding production standstill
