The General Assembly of VDMA Wireless Communications for Machines took place on May 6/7, 2025 in Frankfurt.
VDMA WCM is presenting the Wireless Communications Guide (WCG) at the Hannover Messe. This proves to be a practical tool for selecting industrial wireless technologies.
Autonomous mobile robots (AMR) are a new category of robots that are expanding the range of applications for robotics and will also play a key role on the road to the fully networked factory ("smart factory").
In an era characterized by advanced wireless communication technologies, the mechanical engineering industry is faced with the challenge of integrating not only innovative solutions, but also safety in potentially explosive environments.
Under the motto "Talk&Share", AG WCM offers a practical format for the use of wireless data transmission technologies in mechanical engineering.
Mahr GmbH presents two digital calipers on loan to umati. The handy demonstrators will make the benefits of the OPC UA interface standard tangible at events worldwide in the future.
Wireless communication technologies have developed rapidly in recent years and bring high added value for machine and plant engineering through, among other things, increased efficiency.
Overview of the structure and units of the Wireless Communications for Machines working group
Working Group 3 "Infrastructure and Configuration - Solutions" deals with reference architectures and aspects of the integration of wireless communication systems in machines, plants and production systems.
Working group 2 "Wireless technologies - comparison according to requirements" deals with the integration of wireless communication systems in machines, plants and production systems.
Working group 1 "Requirements - needs and use cases" discusses key questions for various branches of industry.
Here you will find guidelines, white papers and other current publications relating to Wireless Communications for Machines.
Description
In exactly one week, the time has come: METAV digital will be launched under the motto "Networking simply threefold". Almost 80 exhibitors from six countries will be there. It is the first exclusively digital event for the metalworking sector organised by the VDW (German Machine Tool Builders' Association), Frankfurt am Main.
