Why is Schaeffler’s system design approach so important moving forward?

The trend toward miniaturization in humanoid robotics is unlocking higher agility, lower power consumption, greater sustainability, and cost reductions, making humanoids more practical, scalable, and efficient for real-world applications. As compact actuators, motors, and reducers continue to advance, humanoid robots will become faster, more dexterous, and more widely adopted across industries. In general, lighter humanoids are faster. What additional areas outside of humanoid robotics can benefit from this type of electromechanical actuation? I already see a lot of parallels between humanoid actuators and automotive active suspension actuators. With L3+ autonomous vehicles in our future, comfort requirements are increasing and approaching humanoid actuators in the legs and arms from a requirements standpoint. can think of a few other applications that would have similar requirements for actuator bandwidth, back drivability, safe state, etc. Why is Schaeffler’s system design approach so important moving forward? Based on the automotive suspension parallel, I would extend your question to include automotive and e-Mobility applications. I think we have the tools and business processes to pull ideas from various parts of our business to develop holistic solutions and not just component solutions. We’ve seen such successes in a short period of time with transforming current sensor technologies from ex-Vitesco into relevant force sensors for humanoid actuators, and we have many similar irons in the fire right now. I think our humanoid display at CES is going to evolve significantly over the next couple of years.
