Beckhoff facilitates physical AI

Taking automation to the next level with natural language

The convergence of artificial intelligence and traditional machine control as the basis for ‘Physical AI’ is a key topic in industry. For this reason, automation specialist Beckhoff will be demonstrating at the 2026 Hannover Messe how large language models (LLMs) can directly influence real-world motion sequences via standardised interfaces.

High precision Components

Motors in printer for the smallest details

In the technical realm, “nano” means ten to the power of negative nine, or one billionth. In addition, parts even smaller than this are possible – for example, the intricate shapes that come out of the NanoOne 3D printer from UpNano. To produce these, light particles are fired at the starting material. This is a process that plays out over a range of thousandths of a millimeter. So that the substrate can be precisely aligned here, three compact, high-performance motors from Faulhaber ensure the correct position.
