igus South Africa says it is gearing up for a dynamic display at KwaZulu-Natal’s Industrial Technology Exhibition (KITE) 2025 taking place from 22 to 24 July at the Durban Exhibition Centre. The company will feature its latest innovations in low-cost automation (LCA) and smart machine integration.

Its exhibit will include displays of live robotic systems in real-world applications such as pick-and-place, assembly, computer numerical control loading and other applications.

“Our goal at KITE 2025 is to give visitors an immersive look at how igus technology can boost operational efficiency and reduce downtime,” says igus’ Ian Hewat. “We’ll be demonstrating components and complete solutions from our durable polymer range. These will include everything from energy chains, cables, linear guides and wear-resistant bearings to fully functional robot arms powered by igus’ robolink modular system.”

The company will also showcase its RBTX online robotics marketplace, which is a platform featuring over 500 ready-to-integrate robotics applications and components aimed at helping companies to design and build customised robotic solutions.

Attendees will also be able to use igus’ newly launched AI smart assistant robot adviser, that can be used to select the correct automation components online.

“Visitors to the stand will be able to interact with the AI assistant in a hands-on demo environment, learning how it uses real-world application data to recommend complete robotic systems. The AI chatbot takes the guesswork out of automation. Even without prior experience in robotics, users can simply describe their application and the AI will suggest a suitable robot arm, camera or gripper combination. It’s part of our mission to remove the barriers to automation,” says Hewat.
