Secure Parts in Seconds without Tools – with Quick Release Solutions from Ganter Ganter has added a quick release star knob to its product range. This builds on the current selection of various quick release nuts. Together, they offer designers a wealth of options for quickly and securely fastening covers or the like without the need for tools. Removable quick release star knobs and nuts speed up set-up tasks and shorten idle times. The quick release star knob GN 6336.9 sits firmly in the locating thread after at most one full turn. This is made possible by three retracting thread segments that pull back inside the shaft when the push button is pressed. This allows the shaft to be inserted into the threaded hole without resistance. When the push button is released, the threaded segments emerge again and grip the nearest thread turns. The knob can then be tightened with at most one full turn. The knob can be released and removed just as quickly by following these steps in reverse. The version with increased clamping force can be used for higher axial forces on the shaft. It has a disc with ball bearing under the shaft head, which eliminates the friction under the knob. This design also reduces wear on the contact surface. More information on Ganter standard parts can be found on the internet at ganternorm.com

Raise3D is celebrating its tenth anniversary this year. Known for its professional FDM printers, particularly the Pro3 and E2 series, and more recently for its DF2 and DF2+ resin systems, the brand is taking another major step forward with the arrival of its first SLS printer: the Raise3D RMS220. This launch symbolizes a strategic turning point for the manufacturer, which aims to establish itself as a comprehensive multi-technology player in the professional segment, capable of offering filament deposition, photopolymerization, and now selective laser sintering.

RampSens – Smart Efficiency at the Loading Dock RampSens is transforming dock management with intelligent sensors and modern monitoring. By continuously tracking vehicle movements at loading ramps, the system delivers real-time insights into occupancy, vehicle types, license plates, and more. A clear and intuitive dashboard visualizes the current status of each ramp – providing maximum transparency and reliable support for day-to-day operations. Your benefits with RampSens: - Optimized utilization through efficient resource allocation - Increased productivity thanks to improved efficiency and yard management integration - Enhanced transparency through real-time data processing - Reduced turnaround times by minimizing delays Say goodbye to: - Lack of transparency in ramp and gate usage - Missing digital interfaces in yard management - Unpredictable ramp occupancy and long truck waiting times - High manual effort for ramp assignment and control - Energy loss from unnecessarily open roller doors RampSens helps reduce waiting times, increase safety, and make your loading dock processes more efficient than ever. Saves time. Saves money. Makes SENS!

Our reusable covers offer a durable and resource-saving alternative to conventional single-use films, helping you make your packaging process consistently more sustainable. Designed for repeated use in logistics, industry, and trade, they reliably protect pallets and goods from dust, moisture, and damage – without generating single-use waste. By reducing plastic waste, companies using reusable covers make a measurable contribution to their sustainability goals and lower packaging costs in the long term.

The highlight of SPS 2025 was the debut of the new HMI display and HMI buttons—a completely redesigned interface offering greater freedom, robustness, and ease of use as the next generation of human-machine interaction. Other key features included intuitive controls, automatic TCP calibration, safe two-hand controls, level measurement technology, and customized special solutions. In addition to the products, the lively discussions with visitors, partners, and prospective customers were particularly inspiring, turning the booth into a hub for exchange and inspiration.

A new lightning fast platform for power distribution RiLineX from Rittal is a newly developed, open platform for power distribution systems. A click system of boards and components simplifies the previously laborious process of assembling power distribution systems in enclosures. The end result is a time saving of up to 30 percent in engineering and 50 percent in assembly compared to conventional busbar systems. A further advantage is that RiLineX boosts sustainability by reducing plastic waste and increasing decentralised supply opportunities, with fewer shipments of heavy copper required. The innovative solution has been declared a winner by the German Design Award 2025 for its product design.
