SMW-electronics:

By combining mechanics, electronics, and software, SMW-Autoblok has transformed itself from a conventional clamping device manufacturer to a high-tech company. The product area of mechatronics, non-contact transmission technology, sensor technology, and software was further expanded and bundled into the new company SMW-electronics to generate further synergies.

The new product range of SMW-electronics includes non-contact inductive power and data transmission systems (inductive couplers), sensor and measuring systems as well as mechatronic clamping systems and grippers, corresponding software, and customized adaptations.

Target markets of SMW-electronics include machine tools, automation and robotics, electric drive technology, automotive, intralogistics, construction machinery, agricultural technology, packaging machinery, energy (oil, gas, wind), aerospace, and medical technology.
