โก๏ธ Axial flux motors are gaining traction and are still largely in the prototyping phase with limited volume production
โก๏ธ Increasing use of air coils to reduce component complexity and cost, for example by eliminating bobbins
โก๏ธ Emerging alternatives such as PCB based stators compared to conventional wound stators, with clear trade-offs in performance, cost, and scalability
โก๏ธ Innovative Traction motors without rare elements

Higher technical complexity, but also more opportunities to optimize performance, cost and manufacturability.

Company culture isnโt shown only in results, but also in the small moments: when we slow down, make time for one another, and share genuine smiles and joy.
Evenings like this remind us that a company isnโt just projects and deadlines, but above all the teamโs energy, relationships, and that feeling that itโs simply good to be part of the same story.
And thatโs the Rodex spirit we want to carry with us throughout 2026 as well.

After this yearโs SPS โ Smart Production Solutions, the answer is pretty simple: ๐ป๐ผโ
The Rodex team – Milos Petkovic, Matjaลพ Dolinar and Jaka Toplak – just returned from Nรผrnberg, all with the same takeaway: the halls were full, and people were there because things are moving, not slowing down.
Data backs it up โ industrial automation is still growing at ~9% CAGR and is on track to rise from about โฌ199B in 2025 to more than โฌ266B by 2029. AI, IIoT and reshoring are pushing the momentum.
One segment that rarely gets the spotlight but is growing the fastest?
โ
๐ฆ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ต๐ป๐ผ๐น๐ผ๐ด๐.
Inductive proximity sensors alone are growing at around 11% YoY.
The reason is simple: smart factories need far more reliable, high-precision detection points than ever before.
Whenever you see a SICK Sensor Intelligence, ifm, Balluff EMEA, TURCK, Pepperl+Fuchs Group, Baumer Group or Contrinex inductive sensor working around the clock in harsh conditions, part of that performance comes from a ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐น๐ ๐๐ผ๐๐ป๐ฑ ๐บ๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐ผ-๐ฐ๐ผ๐ถ๐น inside it.
Those coils enable things like:
โก๏ธ weld-spatter-immune detection in robotic welding cells
โก๏ธ gripper and part-present feedback on cobots and robots
โก๏ธ end-stroke detection in pneumatic and hydraulic cylinders
โก๏ธ pallet and deck-board detection in intralogistics
โก๏ธ tool presence and breakage monitoring in CNC machines
โก๏ธ valve position feedback in process industries
โก๏ธ elevator leveling and door safety
โก๏ธ reliable counting and positioning in steel mills and foundries
Big sensor brands build excellent electronics and housings โ but the sensing range, stability and lifetime begin with that tiny coil, made with tight tolerances and zero shortcuts.
Thatโs exactly what we focus on at Rodex Mechatronics ๐ฏ
If youโre developing the next generation of sensors and need better inductance tolerance, higher resistance stability, improved temperature behavior or simply zero-ppm quality, weโd be glad to talk.

This year, Rodex Mechatronics launched a dedicated program for hardware startups ready to move from prototypes or small batches to structured, medium or high-volume serial production.
Why? Because we know this stage is often the hardest โ where quality, repeatability, and a stable supply chain are essential, but in-house production is out of reach.
๐ฆ We help startups:
โข scale production without CAPEX
โข transition from 10 โgolden unitsโ to structured serial processes
โข ensure traceability, quality and full documentation
โข build a reliable supply chain with 300+ verified suppliers
The program is already being used by the first successful scale-up HW startup ๐.

Rodex Mechatronics at the โBuilding Careers Togetherโ Event in ล kofja Loka
โOh, I remember you โ you presented Rodex Mechatronics and technical professions in our class back in primary school!โ
Thatโs what a student said to us with a smile as he approached our booth at the Building Careers Together event at ล C ล kofja Loka. Two years ago, we visited his 9th-grade class and talked about technical careers. Today, he is in his second year of studying mechanical engineering.
Moments like these remind us how important it is to connect with young people early โ even during primary school. Not to persuade them, but to inspire them. To show them how exciting and creative the world of technology can be.
โIf we inspire even one student, thatโs a win,โ said our director Milos Petkovic, whose presence at the event reaffirmed the importance of encouraging young people to consider technical careers.
Events like this give us the opportunity to inspire not just one student, but a whole class โ or an entire generation. And those who understand that arenโt just building a company โ theyโre building the future.

Moving production from Asia back to Europe is often more complex than it first appears:
โน๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐น ๐ธ๐ป๐ผ๐๐น๐ฒ๐ฑ๐ด๐ฒ ๐ด๐ฎ๐ฝ๐: Key people are gone, documentation is incomplete, orโworseโstill with old suppliers. Many companies donโt even have a full picture of what needs to be transferred.
โน๐ง๐ถ๐บ๐ฒ & ๐๐ณ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ๐: Itโs a demanding process that requires patience, transparency, and flexibility from both sidesโthose shifting production and those receiving it.
โน๐ก๐ผ ๐๐ต๐ผ๐ฟ๐๐ฐ๐๐๐: You need to take it all, big and small: You canโt cherry-pick high-volume items. A real transfer means taking on everything, even the smallest parts, because, at the end of the day, youโre solving a problem.
