World of Technology and Science (WOTS) is the largest industrial trade fair in the Benelux that unites companies from the sectors of measurement, control, electrical engineering and technology. Kendrion 3T, a development partner for customer-specific electronics and embedded systems, will present their latest innovations in Utrecht.

Robotics manufacturers, system integrators, and users face the challenge of incorpo-rating the updated requirements of ISO 10218:2025 into future robotics projects. Kendrion's Safety Architecture for Robotics provides an open solution featuring a SIL3/PLe certified Safety PLC paired with a robotics library for kinematic safety func-tions. The safety controller combines motion, force, and zone monitoring into a single platform, enabling targeted support for future safety requirements. The architecture, which is independent of manufacturers, can be seamlessly integrated into robotics applications that utilize EtherCAT.

Electrification is changing the way machines are designed. As manufacturers develop more compact and battery-powered equipment, motor controllers must deliver efficient, reliable and stable performance under changing loads and harsh operating conditions. Discover how VIPER Motor Control uses sensorless technology to meet these challenges.

With VIPER Motor Control, Kendrion presents a customer-specific, sensorless motor controller for battery-powered applications in forestry and agriculture, as well as in the construction and mining industries. The controller enables manufacturers to meet the growing demands for efficiency, performance, and robustness in electrified off-highway applications. VIPER provides them with a powerful foundation for the electrification of demanding tools.

Electric counterbalanced forklift trucks need to do more than just move efficiently, they have to hold loads securely, position them precisely and stop reliably in critical situations. Modern spring-applied brakes play a central role in ensuring safety, availability and energy efficiency.

With the Slim PM, we have launched a compact permanent magnet brake for servo motors with low to medium torques. The new series is designed for applications in automation, medical technology, and robotics. For OEMs, it is not just the brake itself that matters, but its place in the system: Our Slim PM and High Torque Line use the same mechanical and electrical interface. This allows different torque ranges to be covered with a consistent brake technology without having to redesign the motor. The customer pays only for the exact torque actually required in the respective application.

Kendrion N.V. confirms that all resolutions that were brought up for vote were adopted by the general meeting of shareholders earlier today.
