The performance of the SP+ High Speed Generation 3 precision gearbox series from the alpha Advanced Line opens up new opportunities for machine manufacturers to make their machines more powerful, more efficient and more robust. They combine exceptionally high continuous speeds – roughly twice the current market standard – with improved controllability and thermal characteristics that have been significantly enhanced.
Galaxie® GA: A spur gear stage installed upstream allows for the compact integration of a wide variety of industrial motors and gearbox variants from the Wittenstein product range, to suit each application. The modular design also enables the incorporation of coaxial or right-angled input stages. Another, often decisive, advantage is that the hollow shaft of the Galaxie – essential in many applications – is retained in full, regardless of the chosen input stage or connected motor. This way, media, cables and other functional elements can continue to be routed centrally through the gearbox.
As regulatory expectations evolve, including those introduced by the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), organizations are being asked not only to develop secure and safe products, but also to demonstrate how software has been developed, verified and maintained throughout its lifecycle.
Safertos and its Enhanced Security Module (ESM), highlight how cybersecurity and functional safety are increasingly becoming assurance challenges as well as technical challenges.
Used in industries including industrial automation, automotive, aerospace, medical technology and rail transportation, Safertos provides a dependable software foundation for safety-critical embedded systems where reliability and deterministic behaviour are essential. Supported by a Design Assurance Pack (DAP) containing traceability, verification evidence and lifecycle artifacts, Safertos helps organizations establish confidence in their software foundations while supporting certification, compliance and audit activities.
