Not «breath-» but wireless
Bluepath Robotics, an internal innovation project at the Ford subsidiary Otosan, which was spun off at the end of 2023, develops and produces autonomous mobile robots for a wide range of intralogistics applications. Now, Wiferion enables the inductive power supply of the AMRs.
Electric monorail system for Quark & Co
NÖM produces a wide range of dairy products, yogurt, butter, and curd cheese from approximately 450 million kg of milk from 2,200 farmers in the region build a fully automated shipping warehouse with comprehensive conveyor technology for 26,000 pallet spaces.
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.
Stadler cooperates with DLR
Stadler cooperates with DLR
Stadler is working with the German Aerospace Center to develop a flexible battery system with different performance characteristics for passenger trains. A project called MOSENAS will initially produce a demonstrator of the scalable concept .
According to the announcement, this is a modular, scalable battery system for battery-powered multiple units, whose performance and capacity can be adapted to specific route-specific usage scenarios. The integration of renewable energies is intended to support sustainable rail operations.
Trains equipped with MOSENAS ( Modular Scalable Energy Storage for Sustainable Local Rail Passenger Transport ) are intended particularly suitable where battery-electric operation was previously uneconomical or not possible for technical reasons. The battery systems can be specifically tailored to vehicle rotations, operating times and existing charging infrastructure. This makes it possible to optimise the expected service life of the battery systems.
It is well known that can be equipped with overhead lines for technical and that are recharged in between runs are suitable on non- or partially electrified lines . The trains are intended to be able to be quickly recharged at charging points in stations, depots or on overhead line routes. The charging processes should place as little strain as possible on the existing power grid.
So -called second-use batteries in stationary storage systems could also balance and buffer peak loads at charging points. These are batteries that no longer have their full capacity due to aging processes. While they are no longer suitable for use in vehicles, they can be used, for example, as temporary storage in the charging infrastructure.
The Federal Ministry of Transport is supporting the project € 5.3 million
