The CEE E-Trans programme "Electric Construction Machinery 2026" (Off Road Construction Machinery) led by ADEME, supports the acquisition, electric retrofit and certain charging infrastructure for construction machinery. The construction site component is open from 30 June to 31 December 2026, subject to the availability of funds. For agricultural machinery, a first session has closed and the Government has announced a second succession by the end of 2026, with the objective of increasing the total budget to 10 million€.
At BIBUS France, quality of life at work is more than just a good intention. It is built day by day through concrete, meaningful actions that are accessible to our teams.
Linear motion technology is undergoing a significant transformation. Rising energy-efficiency requirements, digitalization, and the growing need for flexible manufacturing are driving the adoption of electric actuators and intelligent motion systems across a wide range of applications. At the same time, pneumatics continues to provide a cost-effective and reliable solution in many industrial environments. This article explores the key trends shaping the future of linear motion technology and explains why hybrid systems may become the winning approach in the years ahead.
Used in many industrial applications, they allow for controlled, smooth and effortless movement, while reducing wear and tear on equipment. In this article, we explain what gas springs are used for and how they concretely optimise your systems in everyday life.
At BIBUS France, we are celebrating more than 40 years of partnership with Bansbach, the world leader in gas springs.
The Regan Vest bunker in Denmark once operated as a secret Cold War facility and today serves as a museum. One of the biggest operational challenges was the daily movement of its multi-ton bunker doors. During the project, the THOMSON Electrak® HD electric linear actuator provided a reliable and simpler alternative to traditional hydraulic systems.
The Kollmorgen Essentials pre-optimized motion control system provides simpler commissioning and faster integration in industrial automation environments. Built on AKM2G servo motors, AKD servo drives and Single Cable Technology, the platform reduces cabling complexity and simplifies PLC integration with EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP and PROFINET support.
How can manufacturers reduce physical strain on employees, increase productivity, and improve workplace safety?
The traditional debate between pneumatic and electric systems has significantly changed in industrial automation. Modern production lines increasingly rely on hybrid solutions, combining the speed of pneumatics with the precision of electrification. This article explores why optimization — rather than competition between technologies — has become the real focus of modern industry.
The logic behind industrial investments has changed significantly in recent years. In the past, replacing an aging system with a new machine was often an automatic decision. Today, however, rising energy costs, high investment expenses, and the risk of production downtime force companies to evaluate much more carefully whether a complete replacement is truly necessary.
