Our solutions combine cyber-physical intelligence with data-driven efficiency, laying the foundation for the factory of tomorrow.

### Connected components

With connected components, you can lay the foundation for data-driven services and intelligent automation.

### Real-time data

Live data from the powertrain provides complete transparency regarding operating conditions and process behavior.

### Intelligent smart services

Intelligent services analyze operating data, recognize patterns, and provide specific recommendations—automatically and proactively.

### Digital engineering tools

Simulations and application-specific calculations enable precise design.

The future of industry is digital, connected, and predictive. Under the umbrella of software and digitalization, solutions are emerging that go far beyond traditional automation. They combine mechatronic intelligence with data-driven efficiency, laying the foundation for a new generation of machines and systems.

A central element is mechatronic drive design. It combines mechanics, electronics, and software into an optimally coordinated overall system. With the help of digital engineering tools, drive components such as motors, gearboxes, and servo drives can be precisely coordinated with each other as early as the design phase. Simulations and application-specific calculations enable precise sizing – for maximum performance, energy efficiency, and service life.

But digitalization does not end with sizing – it begins there. Integration into networked IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) environments turn drive systems into active sources of information. Sensor technology, control systems, and software communicate in real time, exchange data, and enable end-to-end transparency throughout the entire life cycle.

This connectivity is the basis for intelligent Smart Services that do much more than classic condition monitoring. They analyze operating data, recognize patterns, and derive specific recommendations for action. A particular focus is on predictive maintenance. Instead of rigid maintenance intervals, condition-based maintenance enables forward-looking planning – downtime is avoided, service calls are made more efficient and plant availability is significantly increased.

At the same time, digital platforms and visualization tools such as dashboards or digital twins create an intuitive interface for complex data. This turns information into real added value—for developers, maintenance personnel, and decision-makers alike.

Software and digitalization are therefore much more than just a trend. They are a strategic success factor for machine builders, OEMs, and operators who want to make their production more intelligent, sustainable, and future-proof – from initial sizing to the last operating cycle.
