Machines are becoming faster, more precise, and increasingly complex. At the same time, expectations for productivity, energy efficiency, and process stability continue to rise. This is exactly where our new Motion Competence Center comes in.

With this new competence center, cross-ING brings together expertise in motion control, drive technology, control engineering, and dynamic system development. Our goal is to help companies design smarter motion systems, maximize machine performance, and reduce engineering risks at an early stage.


Motion is More Than Drive Technology

Whether in packaging machinery, robotics, special-purpose machines, medical technology, or high-speed production systems, modern motion systems are far more than motors and controllers. Maximum performance can only be achieved when mechanics, electronics, software, and control engineering work together seamlessly.

Even minor vibrations, poorly tuned control parameters, or mechanical resonances can significantly limit machine performance, resulting in reduced accuracy, longer cycle times, increased wear, quality issues, and unplanned downtime.


Engineering the Entire Motion System

The Motion Competence Center takes a holistic engineering approach. Instead of addressing individual symptoms, our specialists analyze the complete motion system to identify the root causes of performance limitations.

Our expertise includes:

  • Motion architecture and system design

  • Selection and sizing of servo drives, motors, and actuators

  • Model-based control development and optimization

  • Dynamic, load, and system behavior simulation

  • Vibration and resonance analysis

  • Digital twins and virtual commissioning

  • Synchronized multi-axis motion systems

  • Integration of PLCs, sensors, and safety concepts

  • Optimization of dosing, dispensing, and positioning systems

  • Machine performance and cycle time optimization


From Simulation to Real-World Performance

A key focus of our Motion Competence Center is combining simulation with real-world validation. Using physical models, digital twins, frequency analysis, and measurement data, we identify performance limits, resonances, and stability issues long before they become costly problems during commissioning or production.

This significantly reduces development effort, shortens commissioning times, and minimizes expensive design iterations.


Your Benefits

By working with cross-ING's Motion Competence Center, you benefit from:

  • Higher machine performance

  • Shorter cycle times

  • Improved process stability
