PI Extends Production Capacity – New Manufacturing Building
Videos reveal finalists’ new technologies, with online voting beginning October 28 and onsite voting available during the event.
Auburn, MA - PI, the global leader in nanopositioning, ultra-precision motion control and piezo technology, has completed the construction of an additional manufacturing building at its Eschbach, Germany site.
With investments of around $22M and 66,000 sf of additional space, PI is strengthening its global development and production center and the economic development of the region.
The expansion will enable production capacities of precision motion control and nanopositioning technology products to be tripled in order to meet the demands of customers from the semiconductor, photonics, laser processing and life sciences industries.

Schmalz Technology Development - The Right Gripper for Every Task
In order to interact with their environment and perform the tasks, lightweight robots, like all industrial robots, depend on tools - and in many cases these are vacuum grippers. These form the interface to the workpiece and are therefore a decisive part of the overall system. With their help, the robots can pick up, move, position, process, sort, stack and deposit a wide variety of goods and components. Vacuum gripping systems allow particularly gentle handling of workpieces, a compact and space-saving system design and gripping from above. Precisely because the object does not have to be gripped, the vacuum suction cupenables gapless positioning next to each other.
