Motion control solutions for machine builders at Machine Building North 2026
Designing machines today means balancing performance, energy efficiency, footprint and engineering effort. Machine builders are under pressure to deliver flexible solutions that scale — without adding complexity to their drive architecture.
At Machine Building North 2026, Lenze shows how machine builders can simplify drive architecture, reduce energy use and prepare for CRA requirements — in one focused event day.
Visit us to discuss how the right drive architecture helps you simplify machine design, reduce lifecycle cost and prepare your machines for future requirements — including cybersecurity and regulatory compliance.
Cybersecurity and compliance by design: what CRA & NIS-2 mean for OEMs
Cybersecurity requirements are becoming an integral part of machine design. Machine builders need solutions that support compliance without disrupting engineering workflows.
Lenze integrates security functions into its automation products and follows development processes aligned with known standards and regulations. This supports machine concepts that can meet requirements such as the NIS‑2 directive and the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) — from design through operation.

Smart drive architecture for efficient, scalable machine design
You want to reduce energy consumption, cabinet space and engineering effort — without locking your machine into a rigid architecture.
By combining energy‑efficient motor‑drive systems (IE5/IE6) with consistent engineering and FAST application software, you can simplify commissioning and scale motion performance from single axes to compact multi‑axis concepts.Structured approaches such as decentralized drives and shared DC‑bus systems help reduce wiring effort, cabinet space and system complexity — while keeping machines flexible for future adaptations.
The focus is not on components, but on how drive architecture choices shape energy use, commissioning effort and long‑term machine flexibility.
