Vancouver, BC – Tuesday, January 7th, 2025 – As the world of industrial technology continues to evolve, the HANNOVER MESSE is poised to be a pivotal venue for showcasing the latest advancements in robotics. The Application Park, a prominent feature of this renowned trade fair, promises to captivate visitors with its diverse range of cutting-edge robotics applications. Set against the backdrop of the fair’s main theme of “Industrial Transformation,” the Application Park will house around 30 companies demonstrating intelligent robot systems, autonomous devices, AI innovations, image recognition tools, and virtual platforms.
One of the standout exhibitors, the French company Inbolt, will present an intelligent and adaptable solution for robotic guidance. By integrating a 3D camera directly on the robot, Inbolt employs AI-powered algorithms that enable real-time location and positioning of parts, allowing for seamless adjustments during operation. This innovative technology caters to a wide spectrum of applications, from basic pick-and-place tasks to advanced assembly processes. The AI-driven software ensures that assembly lines can run smoothly without interruptions, significantly elevating productivity and efficiency.
Another fascinating participant is voraus robotik from Hannover, which will highlight the synergy between modern information technology (IT) and industrial automation (operational technology – OT). Their core offerings, automation software voraus.core and development environment voraus.pioneer, are designed to create and optimize agnostic solutions. This means that the technology can adapt to various data transmission methods, integrating existing IT infrastructure and AI processes without limitations, promoting smoother operations across platforms.
Mobile industrial robots are set to dominate the exhibits in the Application Park. Conductix-Wampfler from Weil am Rhein showcases efforts to enhance efficiency and reliability in intralogistics and automotive production with their innovative charging solutions, including Enduro+ and Nano+ contacts and the WirelessCharger 3.0 for inductive charging. These solutions ensure optimal energy management for Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs), and Industrial Mobile Robots (IMRs), thereby extending their operational lifetimes.
Blickle, a Swabian family business, will draw attention with its ErgoMove electric drive systems, which can effortlessly transport loads weighing up to 4,000 kilograms. This system emphasizes ergonomics, safety, and productivity—qualities essential for handling bulky items in fast-paced industrial settings. Their motto, “Moving everything. Anywhere,” reflects a commitment to providing flexible logistics solutions.
Additionally, Pro Spot Deutschland GmbH will reveal its next-generation 15s Smart Spot welding cobot. This groundbreaking system integrates user-friendly automation with the world’s leading manual spot welding technology, allowing for fully automatic operations in production plants without the need for complex safety cells, thus enhancing workplace efficiency and safety.
Visitors will also find the Indunorm Bewegungstechnik GmbH’s floor trolley, designed to enhance the mobility of articulated robots. By providing an additional axis, the trolley expands the robot’s operational radius, harmonizing innovation with practicality in automated production.
HANNOVER MESSE, the leading global trade fair for industry, will take place from March 31 to April 4, 2025, bringing together 4,000 exhibiting companies across various sectors, including engineering, electrical, and digital industries. The event will feature a conference program with approximately 1,600 speakers, making it a hub for knowledge-sharing and networking.
As industries increasingly lean into automation and digital transformation, the Application Park at HANNOVER MESSE stands as a testament to the incredible potential of robotics to reshape the future of production and logistics. Be sure to attend and witness firsthand the innovations that are driving change in the industrial landscape!
