Automation, digitalization and robotics for the efficient, high-rate and versatile production of the future
The Fraunhofer IFAM will showcase its Machine Tool Robot and other automated technologies at Hannover Messe 2026. The Machine Tool Robot, awarded second place in the Robotics Award 2026, combines precision and dynamics for efficient production.
The Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Technology and Advanced Materials IFAM will present its latest developments in robotics and automation at Hannover Messe 2026. The Machine Tool Robot (MTR), developed with Siemens AG and autonox Robotics GmbH, was awarded second place in the Robotics Award 2026. The MTR improves industrial robot dynamics and precision using intelligent control strategies and innovative drive technologies. It enables machining with higher material removal rates and operates with higher jerk settings, increasing productivity. The Fraunhofer IFAM will also showcase a robot training center for cognitive and humanoid robotics, automated abrasive vacuum suction blasting, and local chemical surface treatment. The institute's research focuses on automation, digitalization, and robotics for efficient production.
