New generation of products based on directly driven, high-performance modules. HP140 Pick & Place and the TO torque rotary table

Introduction of WEISS Application Software for quick and easy parameterization of all user-programmable WEISS components. The drive technology is implemented in cooperation with our partner B&R.

Production is expanded at the Buchen site. An additional 9,800 m² of production and manufacturing space is created.

Expansion of the handling range with development of the highly dynamic HL/HN linear motor axes and ST/SW rotating units. Each is available with an absolute encoder.

The TW with hybrid drive: 
an integrated torque motor combined with a high-precision gear reduction.

Expansion of the customer-specific systems division.

Market launch of the W.A.S. control concept with Rockwell for the LS280. In addition, standardized cell wiring is developed for the two control concepts from Rockwell and B&R.

The DirectDrive solutions are rendered compatible for use with third-party control systems, such as Bosch.

EF2 – the new generation of controls for fixed-cycle WEISS rotary indexing tables. Intuitive web-based operation for maximum convenience and fast start-up.

New HG25 and HG12 linear motor axes based on an aluminum profile. State-of-the-art linear motor technology at the price of conventional drives – and much more precise and compact.

New DR delta robot product line. Designed for high-speed assembly and handling.

Since January 2019, the German automation specialist WEISS has been represented by an independent WEISS sales company in Austria. The newly founded Weiss Automation Partner Austria GmbH, based in Grödig near Salzburg, exclusively handles sales and consulting for the complete WEISS product portfolio in Austria.

The new team has many years of experience in the automation industry and offers Austrian customers solution-oriented consulting and competent first-hand service for all aspects of the premium supplier's transport platforms and handling units.

The first hackathon organized by the WEISS Technology Foundation deepened young people’s enthusiasm for automation and digitalization.

With the fifth generation of its rotary indexing tables, WEISS tapped the potential of production automation and digitalization.

The WEISS Technology Foundation organized its second hackathon on the topic of connectivity.

WEISS creates “Triple M – Mission for Medium-sized Machine Manufacturers,” a platform for exchanging experience and know-how. The platform aims to shed light on the challenges of digitalization – for SMEs in particular – and initiate joint solutions and ideas for implementing them.

The link conveyor system LS Link supplements the portfolio of linear transfer systems. The special thing about it: Despite the transport chain, the process stations are freely programmable.

Volume 03 of the WEISS Technology Foundation hackathon excites participants. They find solutions for using machine data.

Together with Schubert Development GmbH, WEISS is founding pssbl. Robotics GmbH, which will facilitate access to robotics for mechanical engineering.

Uwe Weiss is speaking at the Mechanical Engineering Summit in Berlin about the challenges of digitization, especially for SMEs.

Representatives from medium-sized companies met in Buchen at the third Triple M-eeting to discuss paths towards digitization.

WEISS China now has a new, considerably larger location in the Shanghai Robotic Industrial Zone in Gucun.

In addition to its current locations in India and the USA, Ecotech IT Solutions now also has a permanent location in Germany. 

LS One is the direct-drive transfer system specially designed for tasks with maximum precision and flexibility. It is pre-programmed, pre-parameterized and pre-commissioned.
