A hybrid motion Automate demonstration by Emerson reveals how OEMs can benefit from the speed and precision of electronic actuation and the flexibility and compliance of pneumatic actuators and grippers in the same machine design.

Global automation technology, software and engineering provider Emerson Automation Systems (Emerson) will present its latest fit-for-purpose pneumatic and electric technologies and handling systems at Automate 2026 in Chicago.

To remain competitive, the company said that OEMs manufacturing advanced robotics and automation systems must ensure precise, reliable machine performance while meeting aggressive production schedules.

Emerson said that its Automate booth will feature the company’s latest automation technologies designed to enhance machine performance and accelerate time to market. Engineered to meet a wide range of applications and environments, the company said that these for-purpose pneumatic and electric technologies and handling systems can help OEMs optimize machine designs and improve throughput, uptime and efficiency.

Emerson provided the following details of its Automate exhibit:

  • A ballpoint pen machine reveals the comprehensive range of motion control components Emerson offers in an integrated offering. Visitors will see how the assembly machine combines and assembles all components of a completed pen.
  • A hybrid motion demonstration reveals how the combination of servo drives, motors, electric actuators and pneumatics in automation systems allows machine builders to capitalize on the strengths of both motion control technologies. With a hybrid system, the company said that OEMs can incorporate both the speed and precision of electronic actuation with the flexibility and compliance of pneumatic actuators and grippers in machine designs.
  • An interactive product wall includes a website configurator that visitors can use to specify an AVENTICS Series XV valve system. With about 100 million possible configurations, Emerson said that its AVENTICS Series XV pneumatic valves offer a greater range with higher flow rates to give OEMs enhanced design flexibility and scalability when engineering handling systems or automation systems. Using the configuration tool, Emerson said that booth visitors can specify valve size, electronics, fieldbus protocol, pressure regulators, shut-off valves, flow modules and pressure-supply modules to match their exact application. AVENTICS Series XV valves include the XV03, providing flow volumes up to 350 liters NL/min, and the XV05, which can provide up to 1,000 liters NL/min.

Emerson will feature other demos at its booth during Automate 2026, including a look at its Branson Polaris Ultrasonic welding platform.
