Precision, flexibility and efficiency are more important than ever in electronics manufacturing. And digitalization is playing an increasingly important role. Instead of a one-size-fits-all solution, Mitsubishi Electric offers a wide range of innovative approaches tailored to specific production requirements. Whether it is sensitive PCB production, PCB assembly, electronic component assembly or quality control - each application requires a tailor-made solution.

Mitsubishi Electric has launched its MELFA RH-10CRH and RH-20CRH SCARA robots, providing manufacturers with greater flexibility in adopting digital manufacturing while addressing skilled workforce shortages. These new robots enhance industrial automation through high-speed operation, easy installation, and exceptional efficiency. Compact and lightweight, they are ideal for manufacturers aiming to boost productivity while navigating space and weight constraints.

Enhancing efficiency and reducing cost for safety in industrial automation

Mitsubishi Electric Europe announced the launch of the MELSEC iQ-R safety local IO modules, featuring the RX40NC6S-TS and RY48PT20S-TS. These components are designed to enhance the lineup, increase efficiency and reduce safety costs in industrial automation.

In the age of digitalization, the networking of machines, systems and plants is a decisive success factor. Open network connections play a central role in enabling cross-manufacturer integration and flexible production environments. Servo systems are a prime example of the benefits of such technologies, particularly with OPC-UA, OPC-UA FX, EtherCAT and CC-Link-IE-TSN.

November 1979. Dieter Orgassa unterschreibt für seine Firma Orgassa GmbH den Vertrag mit Mitsubishi Electric und wird damit offiziell einer der ersten Vertragshändler für Industrieprodukte in Deutschland. Bis heute im Jahr 2024 wird diese Partnerschaft erfolgreich gelebt. Was für eine gemeinsame Reise!

With the "Smart Manufacturing Kaizen Level" (SMKL) concept, Mitsubishi Electric presents a solution that enables companies to digitize their production facilities in a targeted and step-by-step manner. The concept is based on the Kaizen philosophy of continuous improvement and is designed to drive digital transformation in manageable, efficient steps. With the support of state-of-the-art technologies and software solutions, companies can sustainably increase their productivity, quality and plant availability and work towards a fully networked production.

There are many working environments that are dusty, dirty and demanding. This calls for a special motor that does its job reliably and for a long time. With the EM-A motor, Mitsubishi Electric has developed a series that meets exactly these specific conditions and at the same time positions itself with precise performance.

The jungle of EU regulations and directives is dense and confusing! EU Regulation 2019/2021/341, which has its origins in the European Ecodesign Directive 2009/125/EC, continues to regulate the minimum efficiency levels for electric motors and frequency converters in new systems. The European Ecodesign Regulation 2024/1781 (ESPR), adopted in 2024, looks at the big picture, including supply chains and materials. And that's where we come in. Because we rely on reluctance motors that are manufactured without the use of rare earths, making a significant contribution to sustainability. The combination of frequency inverters from Mitsubishi Electric and manufacturer-independent synchronous reluctance motors already meets the requirements of efficiency classes IE1-5 today, so you are ready for the requirements of the future.

Thanks to SMKL digitalization and powerful software solutions – Mitsubishi Electric is going digital and innovative at this year's SPS trade fair in Nuremberg. Together with its partners ICONICS, Takebishi Corporation and Mesalogic GmbH, innovative solutions for digital transformation will be presented. The focus will be on the SMKL (Smart Manufacturing Kaizen Level) concept, which helps companies to drive their digitalization in small, efficient steps and thus ensure their long-term competitiveness. To be seen in Hall 6, Stand 6-348.
