Exhibition highlights in 2018

Let’s take a look back at a successful week at the exhibition! We have posted the highlights of this year’s Hannover Messe in our photo gallery.

We automate the factory of the future

“Integrated Industry – Connect & Collaborate” was the main theme at this year’s Hannover Messe. Intelligent networking and flexible production open up huge opportunities for industry. Innovative automation solutions for the smart factory were also the key focus at Pilz’s exhibition stand.

“Virtual” switching and control

Visitors were able to see our global innovation PSENmat in action on the smart factory model. The pressure-sensitive safety mat has an integrated switch functionality and thereby combines area monitoring with an operating function. Thanks to the integrated virtual pushbutton, visitors were able to have a personal memento made at our smart factory.

The smart factory of the future

“Industrie 4.0 meets Industrial Internet” was the central theme in Hall 8. As a member of the demonstration and research platform SmartFactoryKL, Pilz advocates standardisation of and a joint approach to the topics of safety (machinery safety) and security (IT security). At SmartFactoryKL’s stand, Pilz together with other partners showcased a production line that demonstrated the practical application of Industrie 4.0.

Man and robot working together

Smarter. Safer. Teamwork 4.0. A factory floor and no robots? This is inconceivable in the factory of the future! The fact that Pilz is the reliable partner for safe automation of human-robot applications was evident not only on the large poster in Hall 9. On the exhibition stand too, visitors could see for themselves how humans and robots can work together at the same workstation.

Robotics at Pilz

Your gate. Our system. Your safety.

Economical series connection, escape release, rapid diagnostics as well as additional operating and pushbutton elements – all of this is offered by the new modular safety gate system from Pilz. Our experts demonstrated live on the model how a customised safety gate solution can be created from individual components.

Training systems for safe automation

The optimum tool for knowledge transfer in the field of safe automation: the new Pilz Education Systems! At the Pilz exhibition stand, many students, trainers and teachers were won over by our modular training systems comprising modern, industrial components for practical instruction in electrical engineering.

Guided tours

Innovative solutions are required to ensure that there is no compromise in terms of safeguarding danger zones! On this year’s guided tour which focussed on “innovations for machine and plant engineering”, we presented participants with innovative safety concepts from the field of sensor technology.

Partner country Mexico

Each year, the world’s biggest industrial exhibition focusses on a different country. Mexico was the partner country at this year’s Hannover Messe and took the opportunity to showcase new technology trends, investment possibilities and research projects. Pilz has had a subsidiary in Mexico for more than 18 years and, in its role as “Ambassador for Safety”, supports the local and international companies there.
