Schaeffler at MSV 2026: The Motion Technology Company Brings Its Roadshow Truck

August 7, 2026 / 11:32 AM

From bearings to humanoid robotics, all in one truck. Schaeffler, the company behind brands like INA, FAG, LuK, Ewellix, and Vitesco Technologies, is returning to MSV after several years away, and this time it's bringing its European roadshow: a mobile exhibition space spanning 65 square meters.

With roughly 110,000 employees across more than 250 locations in 55 countries, the company uses this space to present nearly 80 years of experience in motion technology as a single, unified concept: the Motion Technology Company.

Eight Product Areas Under One Roof

Schaeffler offers a complete portfolio of industrial motion technologies, spanning everything from the energy source to machine monitoring. The exhibition covers eight product areas that together span the full spectrum: generating and transmitting motion, controlling it, and keeping it running through service and predictive maintenance. Visitors can explore a wide range of products and real-world applications from industrial practice.

Applications Across Industries

Schaeffler's products power production lines and machine tools, as well as construction and agricultural machinery, the paper industry, and food and beverage production. In heavy industry, such as paper mills, cement plants, and steelworks, condition-monitoring systems help detect faults before they cause downtime, cutting maintenance costs in the process. In food production and on packaging lines, precision drives are what matters, able to run continuously without losing performance. Beyond traditional industry, the same technologies are also used in the automotive, energy, and automation sectors.

Cross-Industry Expertise

The current development of humanoid robots shows just how well Schaeffler can bring competencies from different industries together in a single product. The key components here are actuators, which function much like muscles, built on decades of precision-mechanics experience from bearing manufacturing, combined with sensors and electronics the company develops for the automotive industry. It's the clearest proof yet that Schaeffler can carry the same know-how across sectors, whether that's industry, automotive, or robotics.
