Industrial automation

Autonomous mobile production tools.
SWD® solutions make all the production equipment of the Factory of the Future mobile and autonomous on the move, regardless of their size and operating cycles.

Warehouse Robotisation

Means for automated logistics.
SWD® solutions enable the automation of all order picking, Good-to-Man, automated storage or pallet and package conveying applications for the modern logistics warehouse.

Industrial transition

Tools for automated load transfer.
SWD drives can be adapted to all load transfer axis automation needs in intralogistics, with a minimum of development and integration effort. The certified safety control bricks accelerate the market introduction of innovative solutions that comply with applicable regulations.

Collaborative Robot

AGV, AGC and AMR development accelerator.
The new SWD® technology allows to robotize a rolling machine with only 3 components: two SWD® wheels and a safety scanner. The engineering effort to develop a safety compliant mobile robot is drastically reduced and can cut development costs by a factor of 5, and the absence of bulky components offers complete freedom of robot layout and shape.
