Schunk Digital Industries

Business conditions and markets are evolving more dynamically than ever before. The ability to react and adapt quickly is therefore becoming a decisive factor for success – for us as well. That is why we are continuously improving our processes and operational procedures with the help of software engineering and the use of data analytics and artificial intelligence in order to meet our own standards and those of our customers.

We develop digital solutions for our products and machines. In doing so, we combine technological leadership in our core businesses with our expertise in modern web, cloud, and platform technologies. We focus on our customers' challenges and develop solutions with added value based on agile methods. From intelligent testing systems to networked production lines and smart train pantographs – the applications are as diverse as our technology group itself.

Intelligent systems and machines open up completely new opportunities for expanding existing business models or creating entirely new ones. In cooperation with our business units, our digital experts develop attractive, sustainable, and practicable digital business models that benefit both our customers and the Schunk Group. The possibilities are as individual as the needs of our customers, ranging from the financing of new machines through digital platforms to performance-oriented incentives through increased machine productivity based on predictive maintenance. This is what we understand by digital innovation that has an impact and generates added value.
