The fire is left without air
The fire protection specialists of the Wagner Group have been honored with the "GIT Safety Award 2026" for their "OxyReduct F-Line." The system expands the OxyReduct process with H2- based fuel cell technology, which simultaneously ensures emission-free energy supply.

Temperature-controlled at the motorway junction
Movianto, a logistics service provider specializing in pharmaceuticals and healthcare, is setting up a new cold storage facility in Wiesloch-Walldorf this month. A photovoltaic system there produces approximately 3,100 MWh per year, more electricity than the site consumes.

Fusion reactor in creep mode
Despite all the political turmoil currently shaking the world, work on the ITER fusion reactor, in which countless nations are involved, continues – much like on the ISS. Recently, another of the 15-meter-high segments for the future plasma chamber was delivered by heavy-duty transport.

Nonstop strapping
Mosca offers a comprehensive portfolio of integrated end-of-line systems for transport packaging, strapping machines, stretch wrappers, and associated consumables. Strapping made from materials such as PP and PET is produced with increasing recycled content.

Dynamic open-plan area
Relocations often involve considerable effort. Furniture needs to be transported, boxes packed, and unwanted items disposed of. The company " Optimal Umzug " from Lachen, Canton of Schwyz, offers services tailored to the greater Zurich area.

Optio L-Series updated
Developed with the user in mind, the completely redesigned generation of low-level order pickers in the Optio L series from TMHE sets new standards. Increased platform lifting heights, low entry, and versatile model variants for loads up to 2.5 t make these devices highly sought-after helpers.

Cold chain in transition: Ambitious goals
Temperature-controlled logistics is facing an energy revolution: battery-electric trucks, long-range hydrogen vehicles, and cryogenic cooling with nitrogen are transforming the industry. Enough "material" for the SVTL to discuss future processes and alternatives at Galliker in Altishofen.

DLR expands drone defense
While Russian drones have long been surveying German bases and critical infrastructures as potential targets for their “ asymmetric warfare ” a project called CUSTODIAN (Counter-UAS Technologies for Detection, Interception and Neutralization) is now slowly gaining momentum at the DLR.

ASTAG and GS1 to go green together
The Swiss Commercial Vehicle Association and GS1 Switzerland are merging their "Lean & Green" and "We go green!" initiatives. Both ASTAG and GS1 are embracing sustainability as a triad of economy, society, and the environment.

Interoperability proven
At an " Automation Day " hosted by Agilox, insights into the current status and future direction of the robotics provider were provided, rounded off by workflows that – modeled on real practical processes – demonstrated interoperability with the AMRs together with a Fanuc robot arm and a Palomat.
Robust design – intuitive operation
Robust design – intuitive operation
With the PSX16, Clark presents its first lithium-ion battery-powered stacker truck, simultaneously expanding its product range in this area. With a 1600 kg load capacity, standard power steering, and a foldable stand-on platform, it has everything needed for demanding applications.
Manufacturer Clark recommends it primarily for the economical transport of goods over long distances, as well as for storing and retrieving goods at higher shelf levels. The PSX is available with both lead-acid and lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries.
Thanks to its compact dimensions and small turning radius, the machine is ideal for use in space-critical work areas as well as for pedestrian operation. For this purpose, both the stand-on platform and the side bars can be folded away. In pedestrian operation, the travel speed is reduced, enabling precise maneuvering.
A powerful hoist motor and proportional hydraulic system ensure smooth and precise lifting and lowering of loads at lift heights of up to 5.8 m. Thanks to the four-point support, the PSX16 provides the operator with a high residual load capacity. The modern three-phase AC drive motor guarantees high efficiency with powerful acceleration and rapid direction changes. Thanks to the sophisticated energy management, the operator can look forward to low operating costs.

For easy and ergonomic access, Clark designed the platform's step height to be very low at just 160 mm. Good all-round visibility ensures the operator always has the fork tips and load in view. On longer transport routes and in curves, the operator benefits from side guards with soft-grip surfaces that ensure a comfortable grip. The operator can activate the side guards without having to leave the vehicle.
The suspended, low-vibration platform reduces strain on the operator's spine. The truck features a rollback protection system for safe operation on slight inclines. The standard mast suspension allows the operator to load and retrieve goods safely and smoothly. The ergonomic tiller is equally suitable for right- and left-handed users. The display integrated into the frame provides information on the battery charge level, operating hours, and error code messages.
The battery can be recharged at any 230-volt outlet. The Li-ion battery and charger are optimally matched, and the built-in battery management system ensures safe operation.
