SCHUNK is introducing a new generation of linear direct axes with the SLD series. The dynamic, heavy-duty axes with electric linear direct drive ensure short cycle times and more productivity in high-speed assembly and handling processes for the electronics manufacturing, e-mobility or life science sectors.

That also impressed the jury of the German Innovation Awards 2023: with the easy-to-use chuck jaw configurator easyJAW, customers can order customized, application-specific chuck jaws with very little use of time and resources – while also getting them delivered four times faster than comparable special solutions.

Real added value comes from exchanges and networking. At the Hannover Messe everything was about interlocking the two biggest screws of the future: sustainability and digitalization. The data room initiative Manufacturing-X was a central topic here.

The family-owned company SCHUNK is changing its legal form to SCHUNK SE & Co. KG and thus continuing to pursue its global alignment strategy.
