A collaboration between Baden and Swabia: SEW-EURODRIVE, the drive and automation specialist based in Bruchsal, and ISG Industrielle Steuerungstechnik GmbH from Stuttgart are entering into a strategic partnership to further accelerate the development and integration of modern robotics solutions.
By ensuring that the entire MOVI‑C® automation modular system complies with upcoming regulatory requirements well in advance, SEW‑EURODRIVE is sending a clear signal regarding investment and planning security. MOVI‑C® will meet the requirements of the Machinery Regulation (MVO) as early as 2026, followed by compliance with the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) in 2027.
With the highly compact, lightweight, and high-performance planetary gear units of the PPK and XP industrial gear series, SEW-EURODRIVE covers the entire range of drive technology solutions required for sugar production in the food industry. Sugar cane mills are particularly widespread in Brazil, the partner country at HANNOVER MESSE 2026.
Cable car systems move heavy loads over long distances and often operate for more than twelve hours a day – sometimes 365 days a year. In addition, they must function safely at all times, even under extreme environmental conditions. SEW EURODRIVE offers the ideal solution for these requirements with its P-X.e series of industrial gear units.

SEW-EURODRIVE makes an 11-axis HFFS packaging machine more efficient, more powerful, and – above all – can deliver from a single source through modern drive and automation technology, including intelligent energy management. The horizontal form-fill-seal machine can flexibly package products using both film and paper and can process paper at the highest cycle rates.
SEW-EURODRIVE, the Bruchsal-based drive and automation expert, is presenting a new strategic focus at HANNOVER MESSE 2026: the systematic development of an open, scalable, and independent European robotics portfolio.
SEW-EURODRIVE and SAFELOG announced a strategic partnership to jointly develop and establish a high-performance software system for controlling mobile and stationary processes in intralogistics. The collaboration combines the software expertise of SAFELOG, a specialist in software for controlling intralogistics processes, with the drive and automation expertise of SEW-EURODRIVE.
One conveyor belt, one gearmotor, one inverter: Such applications are very common in industry. Despite their simplicity, it still takes time for them to start up. If a project study by SEW-EURODRIVE is to be believed, that will soon no longer be the case. The Startup Agent, which is used like a conventional chatbot, enables a significantly simplified and accelerated startup in a remarkable way.
Once again this year, SEW-EURODRIVE is inviting visitors attending HANNOVER MESSE to embark on a digital voyage under the motto "Sustainable thinking. Digital acting." As they head for "distant planets", they will discover smart drive systems, innovative automation technologies, and sustainable solutions, along with intelligent services for the factory of the future.
