Schaeffler’s Post

Bervina's Silicon timing belt has been a game-changer in the VFFS technology industry since its creation in 1997. The revolutionary product was born out of necessity when the unavailability of lynatex led to the creation of a silicon on a PU timing belt. Despite initial reservations, the product was showcased at Hannover Messe in 2000, and Bosch India became the first company to buy it through a local distributor. Fast forward to today, the Silicon timing belt is known as the BMW of VFFS belts in Europe, thanks to positive feedback. It's amazing how a simple solution to a supply chain problem could lead to such an innovative product. #Bervina #SiliconTimingBelt #VFFS #Innovation

🤝👨👩👦 Teamwork Powering Pioneering Innovation At Magneti Zanetti, cooperation across roles has always been fundamental to our success. It is through the synergistic efforts of our engineers, technicians, and production staff that we transform ambitious visions into best-in-class magnetic solutions. Whether collaborating on advanced technical specifications, meticulously crafting prototypes, or smoothly overseeing mass manufacturing - each team member understands their vital role while also contributing diverse perspectives. This culture nurtures an infectious creativity where cross-pollination of ideas leads to advances greater than the sum of individual skills. Challenges faced are overcome through collective problem-solving rather than operating in silos. Most of all, our people feel empowered in driving progress both within their specialisms and companywide. Multiple generations have built upon this cooperative foundation to establish Zanetti as the de facto leader in magnet technology. As we continue innovating for the future of recycling and beyond, strong relationships will remain our core asset.

At the Schorndorf-based distribution centre of MAHLE Aftermarket (the spare parts and services division of the leading automotive supplier MAHLE), around 2,200 pallets are taken in and sent out every day. In total, this amounts to circa 1.5 pallets moved per second. With so much transportation to be done, the on-site material flow must be aligned and optimized for maximum efficiency – and this includes, of course, also the choice of the right energy system! Together with STILL, MAHLE Aftermarket equipped most of its large fleet with lithium-ion batteries. On the one hand, these are more powerful than lead-acid batteries. On the other hand, they allow for quicker and more flexible charging as well as cleaner and more secure handling. For the MAHLE Aftermarket team, this means – among others – that they no longer have contact with toxic fumes and acids, and that they also must no longer bother with water refills and battery changes. Normally, a fully charged li-ion battery lasts for a complete shift. And if an energy boost is needed anyway, it can be done efficiently and easily in the break, for example.

Liebherr is leading the way to closing the loop and creating a more sustainable future. Automated dismantling of EV batteries is the first step to increasing safety and lowering recycling costs.

One of the biggest challenges for warehousing and logistics companies today is space – because there is simply never enough of it! Since expanding or building new premises is rarely an option, it's especially important to get the most out of the existing space. 👍 Here too, the use of lithium-ion batteries can be a smart and gainful game changer! The reason: the easy loading process and the elimination of battery changes and maintenance mean that companies can operate their Li-Ion-powered vehicles with a particularly space-saving charging infrastructure. Fabrizio Ruggiero from MAHLE Aftermarket also sees a strong advantage here: "By doing away with replacement batteries, we no longer need ventilated battery changing zones. This also frees up valuable warehouse space," summarizes the Head of Operations at the leading automotive supplier. And he adds: "The entire handling of the charging processes has become safer and easier without the acids and their outgassing. This allows us to effectively save a lot of time and operating costs."
