New technologies, rapidly increasing production volumes, and short development cycles call for precisely tailored machining and automation solutions for industrial projects. SCHUNK develops these solutions individually for each industry and application, ranging from customized components to complete systems. Decades of expe...

SCHUNK's new vise automation system makes it easy to get started with automated machine loading and unloading. Precise positioning and clamping, simple robot programming, and a manageable capital expenditure ensure reliable processes and longer machine running times.

By establishing the nonprofit foundation "Humanoid Robotics and Embodied AI", SCHUNK, Offenburg University of Applied Sciences, and the BURGER GROUP aim to significantly accelerate the transfer of humanoid robotics into industrial practice. Through education and research projects, expertise and skills will be systematically...

At AMB 2026, SCHUNK will demonstrate productivity throughout the entire process chain – from workpiece and tool clamping, to automated machine loading and unloading. Visitors will experience how consistent sequences, short setup times and high repeat accuracy can make existing machine capacities more cost-effective.

At ILA Berlin 2026, SCHUNK showcased from June 10 to 12, 2026, how demanding manufacturing processes in the aerospace industry can be implemented reliably, precisely, and cost-effectively. The focus was on solutions for workpiece and tool clamping technology as well as automation concepts that reduce setup times, support re...

SCHUNK SE & Co. KG is entering into a new development cooperation with Bosch Robotics GmbH. The shared goal is to develop an industrial-grade humanoid robot hand that can be integrated into various humanoid robot systems. Requirements from different industries are incorporated into the project, creating the basis for new ap...

SCHUNK is focusing on strategic partnerships to deploy intelligent automation faster in industrial applications. At Hannover Messe 2026, this has been evident in several partner projects. These projects showcased how physical AI, robotics, and smart factory solutions can be directly transferred to production environments.

Physical AI is making its way into industry. It enables robots and machines to perform tasks in the real world precisely and safely, taking automation to a new, adaptive level. This is made possible by the interaction of powerful, high-fidelity simulation and AI-driven robotics. At Hannover Messe, SCHUNK is showcasing—using...

At the German Robotics Conference 2026 in Cologne, SCHUNK and the German Aerospace Center (DLR) agreed to further expand their cooperation in the field of humanoid robotics. The cooperation aims to accelerate the transfer of technology to industry and advance the fine motor capabilities of humanoid robot hands for new autom...
