Timeline
Events
- 2026-06-18 - Capability - Dunkermotoren expands modular motion-control platform
OEMs can combine motors, gearboxes, encoders, brakes, electronics and software within a standardized architecture. The platform is designed to support application-specific configurations without restarting each drive project as a fully custom design. Aligned mechanical and electronic components reduce integration risk when scaling a machine family across different axes and duties.
