Industry news:
Jendamark catalyst shrinking technology leverages SEW-EURODRIVE precision
Second Quarter 2026, Electrical switching & drive systems & components, Editor's Choice, SEW-EURODRIVE

Innovative technology for shrinking catalytic converters, designed and built in South Africa by Jendamark Automation for the global market, relies on the precision of SEW-EURODRIVE’s highly dynamic servo-geared units and software.

Hydrostatic machine base for ultra-precision grinding centre
Second Quarter 2026, Electrical switching & drive systems & components

Hyprostatik Schönfeld has developed a high-precision hydrostatic machine base for a new ultra-precision grinding centre for Optotech. The machine platform enables a previously unattainable combination of dimensional accuracy, dynamics and surface quality in the ultra-precision grinding of optical surfaces.

Supporting construction of next-gen floating offshore wind turbines
Second Quarter 2026, Electrical switching & drive systems & components

While windy locations naturally make ideal spots for offshore wind farms, they bring challenges when it comes to assembling wind turbines, particularly in ports. Mammoet was approached by Euroports to support with the marshalling and assembly of the components that make up the three turbines at Port-la-Nouvelle in France.

Identifying signs of hydraulic cylinder wear and tear
Second Quarter 2026, Hydraulic systems & components, CT Hydraulics (Nqoba)

Recognising the early warning signs of hydraulic cylinder degradation is crucial for preventing costly downtime, ensuring operator safety and maximising the lifespan of your hydraulic systems.

The shopping cart that knows the way
