E-mails, instant messages, printed greeting cards: communication in the business world quickly takes on an impersonal flavour. A robot from the company Spline Product Development in Arizona wants to change this. Thanks to maintenance-free linear technology from igus, it is able to write cards in human handwriting, making messages more emotional and ensuring greater resonance.
igus announces the acquisition of elko Verbindungstechnik GmbH. With this step, the company is expanding its assembly capacities in the field of drive technology. At the same time, the motion plastics specialist from Cologne is now even closer to its customers in southern Germany, the centre of the German machine tool and automotive industry.
