July 2024<\/span><span class=\"text\"><span style=\"max-height:3.63em\" class=\"line_limit\">From the founding in 1999 to our current standing as a well-respected provider of intralogistic subsystems, our journey at Dynamic Logistic Systems B.V. has been shaped by a pioneering spirit and a commitment to excellence.\nOur story traces back to 1997 when the late Mr. R.R. Hollander, co-founder of Nedcon Magazijninrichting B.V., received a pivotal request from Albert Heijn, the largest food retailer in the Netherlands, to develop an automated solution for full case order picking. This momentous inquiry laid the groundwork for the creation of the Order Release Module (ORM) and ultimately, the establishment of Dynamic Logistic Systems in 1999.\nThe first two ORM&#8217;s, deployed at Albert Heijn in 2002 and 2005, proved to be remarkably efficient, withstanding the test of time and remaining fully operational to this day. The success at AH in the Netherlands spurred further deployments at ICA, former AH&#8217;s sister company in Sweden, where an additional 3 ORM&#8217;s were built in 2006 and 2007.\nSince these pioneering implementations, Dynamic Logistic Systems has continued to evolve and innovate, refining the ORM and expanding our portfolio to include a range of efficient material handling solutions. From Accumulating Friction-Drive\u2122 Conveyors and the revolutionary DLS Trolley to Sequencers for high-speed sortation including DLS 90-degree diverts, our products simplify logistics while ensuring peak efficiency and quality.\nJoining the ROFA Industrial Automation AG Group in 2015 advanced the professional development of DLS. Our collaboration with US distributor DMW&amp;H in 2018 further expanded our reach, more permanent positioning our innovative DLS products on the US market.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\nAs we remember 25 years of growth, resilience, and innovation, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to our clients, partners, and team members who have played a key role in our success. Your trust and support have fueled our journey and inspired us to continually push the boundaries of what&#8217;s possible in intralogistics.\nHere&#8217;s to celebrating the past and embracing the future with optimism and determination. Thank you for being part of our success.<\/span><span style=\"margin-left:3px; max-height:3.63em\" class=\"line_limit\"> [...]<\/span><\/span><span class=\"custom_fields\">\n<!-- WPLP Unknown field: Custom_Fields -->\n<\/span><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_left_2697_2124\" class=\"wpcu-front-box left wpcu-custom-position\" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_right_2697_2124\" class=\"wpcu-front-box right wpcu-custom-position\" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_bottom_2697_2124\" class=\"wpcu-front-box bottom \" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/dls\/news-en\/celebrating-25-years-of-dynamic-logistic-systems-b-v\/\"  class=\"read-more\">Read more...<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/li><li id=\"wplp_li_2697_566\" data-post=\"566\" class=\"postno_3 masonry li-item-id blog_id_14\" style=\"\"><div class=\"insideframe\"><div id=\"wplp_box_top_2697_566\" class=\"wpcu-front-box top equalHeightImg\" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/morath\/news-en\/new-member-of-the-management-team-at-morath-automatisierung-gmbh\/\"  class=\"thumbnail\"><span class=\"img_cropper\" style=\"max-width:100%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2024\/01\/Logo_Morath-Automatisierung-GmbH.svg\" style=\"\" srcset=\"\" alt=\"New member of the management team at Morath Automatisierung GmbH\" class=\"wplp_thumb\" \/><\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/morath\/news-en\/new-member-of-the-management-team-at-morath-automatisierung-gmbh\/\"  class=\"title\"><span style=\"height:2.7em\" class=\"line_limit\">New member of the management team at Morath Automatisierung GmbH<\/span><\/a><span class=\"date\">4.

August 2022<\/span><span class=\"text\"><span style=\"max-height:3.63em\" class=\"line_limit\">2022 is a very special year for us: We are celebrating our 30th company anniversary!\nThis year we\u2019re taking a look back and showing how we\u2019ve been making history since the early 1990s.\nOn 1 January 1992, Harald Bohnenberg started with the newly founded BSS Bohnenberg GmbH. With just 6 employees, BSS was initially an independent system house for control technology for logistics systems. \nFirst scooped was the goods distribution centre for the Metro non-food division \u2018Varena\u2019 in Unna.\nWith the founding of the computer technology sector a short time later, BSS rose to become a supplier of warehouse management systems. This was followed by the first BSS system with side shelf picking and double-deep storage.\nFollowing the wishes of many customers, BSS began early on not only to implement logistics systems, but also to plan them. The design of intelligent logistics solutions is still a core competence of our company.\nAs a result, BSS received its first order as general planner and contractor in 1995. BSS took over complete conception of the system up to turnkey handover for the picking centre of the company Pelikan in Hanover.\nToday, 30 years later, BSS Bohnenberg GmbH has established itself as a well-known full-service provider for intralogistics, material flow concepts and construction.\nIn the meantime, more than 150 colleagues work every day for our numerous customers and meet the increasingly demanding requirements. The company is led and managed by the directors Martin Gr\u00e4b and Vasilios Dossis.\nWe are proud of our achievements since 1992.What makes BSS special?This year we will again and again give you exciting insights into our projects and our everyday life.<\/span><span style=\"margin-left:3px; max-height:3.63em\" class=\"line_limit\"> [...]<\/span><\/span><span class=\"custom_fields\">\n<!-- WPLP Unknown field: Custom_Fields -->\n<\/span><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_left_2697_2902\" class=\"wpcu-front-box left wpcu-custom-position\" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_right_2697_2902\" class=\"wpcu-front-box right wpcu-custom-position\" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_bottom_2697_2902\" class=\"wpcu-front-box bottom \" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/bss\/news-en\/30-years-of-bss-were-celebrating-our-anniversary\/\"  class=\"read-more\">Read more...<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/li><li id=\"wplp_li_2697_845\" data-post=\"845\" class=\"postno_7 masonry li-item-id blog_id_4\" style=\"\"><div class=\"insideframe\"><div id=\"wplp_box_top_2697_845\" class=\"wpcu-front-box top equalHeightImg\" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/moll\/news-en\/a-great-representative-of-straubingens-mechanical-engineering-industry-is-quietly-saying-farewell\/\"  class=\"thumbnail\"><span class=\"img_cropper\" style=\"max-width:100%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/Rofa-Group-Moll-Abschied-Josef-Moll.jpg\" style=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/Rofa-Group-Moll-Abschied-Josef-Moll.jpg 1524w, https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/Rofa-Group-Moll-Abschied-Josef-Moll-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/Rofa-Group-Moll-Abschied-Josef-Moll-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/Rofa-Group-Moll-Abschied-Josef-Moll-768x512.jpg 768w\" alt=\"A great representative of Straubingen\u2019s mechanical engineering industry is quietly saying &#8220;FAREWELL&#8221;!\" class=\"wplp_thumb\" \/><\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/moll\/news-en\/a-great-representative-of-straubingens-mechanical-engineering-industry-is-quietly-saying-farewell\/\"  class=\"title\"><span style=\"height:2.7em\" class=\"line_limit\">A great representative of Straubingen\u2019s mechanical engineering industry is quietly saying &#8220;FAREWELL&#8221;!<\/span><\/a><span class=\"date\">14. July 2020<\/span><span class=\"text\"><span style=\"max-height:3.63em\" class=\"line_limit\">Josef Moll handed over management of MOLL Automatisierung to his successors on 1 July 2020. As the new mayor of Leiblfing, he is going to focus on the welfare of his home municipality in future.\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPicture: Josef Moll, former company owner and managing director of MOLL Automatisierung\n\t\tBack in 1985, the year in which a certain Boris Becker was the first German to win the tennis tournament of Wimbledon at the age of only 17, another young man from Lower Bavarian Leiblfing was about to soar high as well. Josef Moll preferred a torque wrench to a tennis racket, however.\nWith his competence in the craft, entrepreneurial courage, and unshakable self-confidence, he combined characteristics that were about perfect for building a company of his own. When he graduated from the master\u2019s school in Passau as Bavaria\u2019s youngest master mechanical engineer at the age of 20, he took over management of MOLL Maschinenbau in the early 1980s. At the time, the company had only four employees. MOLL was still developing and building agricultural machines at the time. It barely made ends meet. Young Josef Moll found that condition intolerable in the long run.\nIn his first year as managing director, he therefore set all gears in motion in order to be listed as a supplier of conveyor facilities the operation previously only knew from catalogues. Looking back, that decision clearly was the most important one in his entire career, laying the basis for a new, successful, and much larger company.\nAfter the successful start as a supplier for the automotive industry and the growing entrepreneurial requirements due to this, Josef Moll brought in Franz Bayer as an experienced and competent business partner. The double management started driving the company\u2019s development with outstanding success. Since MOLL quickly grew to exceed the dimensions of the old Eschlbach workshop by far, a production site with an operating area of about 36,000 sqm was built in the new industrial quarter of Leiblfing to keep up with the big players in the automotive supplier industry in terms of capacity as well.\nWhen moving into the new corporate site with 28 employees at the time, Moll had recognised that he would need to focus most strongly on services in the area of engineering in future in order to remain competitive in the long run. Based on this insight, he established an independent design department with Manfred R\u00fcth, head of design at the time and later to become his co-manager. Now, the company was able to offer everything from design, to production and assembly, to commissioning from a single source as a general contractor. This was a quantum leap from an entrepreneurial perspective.\nThe hard battle for the OEMs\u2019 favour lasted many years. Eventually, Moll and Bayer acquired their first large order beyond the 10-million-DM threshold in 1996. It quickly became clear that MOLL would prevail in this trial by fire. With such a reference under its belt, the company was able to gradually establish itself as a key player of the automotive industry. It subsequently acquired globally operating OEMs such as Audi, Volkswagen, and Daimler as new customers. Larger order volumes also required more space, of course. Moll outgrew the production capacities of its new building in Leiblfing once again after just a few years. Subsequently, he had the company\u2019s headquarters extended by building two halls (with a useful area of about 3,500 sqm) and expanded the design office (by approx. 250 sqm).\nAfter a decade and a half of constant growth, the founder suffered his first entrepreneurial setback in 2001, when a fire started by a technical defect burned the newly constructed second production hall almost down to its foundations. Thanks to the alertness and quick reaction of an employee, the remaining operating premises could be saved from the flames.\nAfter rebuilding and the subsequent expansion of the factory by production halls three and four (each with a useful area of about 2,000 sqm), the expansion course could continue unhindered, however, also on a global level. The first large order for the US market was the delivery of conveyor facilities for the BMW factory in Spartanburg\/South Carolina in 2003. In the subsequent years, the MOLL staff grew to a headcount of 140, distributed among several sites, e.g. in Leiblfing, Sindelfingen, or Braunschweig.\nAfter MOLL Maschinenbau was sold to the Austrian group EK-Finn, Josef Moll watched from afar as \u201chis\u201d company fell into insolvency, not least as a consequence of the global economic crisis in 2009. As the manager of the newly founded engineering office MAT in Perkam, Moll maintained a close enough contact with the directors of ROFA Group at the time that they could eventually be convinced to purchase and integrate newly founded MOLL Automatisierung into their group of companies.\nThe board of ROFA Group, under chairman Wolfgang Kozsar, had one condition for the purchase of MOLL, however: Josef Moll had to return as managing director. Together with Manfred R\u00fcth, Moll faced new challenges in that function in order to bring his own former company back to an economically sound footing. Backed by the group parent ROFA and with great personal commitment, he contacted his old companions to help him return MOLL Automatisierung to calmer waters. His first three years as the new \u201cold\u201d managing director were so successful that another factory hall (with a useful area of approx. 2,500 sqm) had to be built to meet the rising demand to the production capacities.\nThe Moll\/R\u00fcth duo eventually returned to the track of success for good in 2014. Since their return, they had been able to increase the company turnover by a magical fifty percent!\nAfter optimising structures and processes in the company, driving development of the IT infrastructure on the highest level, and ordering construction of another assembly hall, Josef Moll decided to pass his responsibility on into younger hands. After two years of managing the company together, he finally handed over the management to his successors Stefan Bauer and Thomas Wittmann on 1 July 2020.\nJosef Moll retiring? \u2013 Impossible! What is likely going to be his last big project is all about his home region: the Leiblfing municipality. Freshly elected as mayor there, he has a clear idea of his future creative and productive contributions, similar to the manner in which he built his company. He wants to make this vision come true in the years ahead. The chances for this are quite good. After all, he is known as someone who has always been true to his word!\nAs managing director of MOLL Automatisierung, Josef Moll will be remembered as someone who\u2026\n\nstill knew all employees in person and always considered their private lives in everyday work\ngave every employee the feeling that they were an important part of his company\nspoke his mind and convinced others on technical and interpersonal levels\nalways strove to maintain a balance between private life and work\nalways considered social commitment essential\nplaces importance on values and traditions, in particular those of Bavaria\nwas, all in all, a down-to-earth managing director throughout the time that he was responsible for the company, with great passion, empathy, and enthusiasm that is rare in these days!\n\nThe entire staff at MOLL Automatisierung, including managing directors Stefan Bauer, Thomas Wittmann, and the board of directors of ROFA group, thank Josef Moll for his many wonderful years of cooperation, and for more than 250 secure jobs in the Straubing-Bogen district.\nThank you, \u201cSepp\u201d, and all the best for your future!<\/span><span style=\"margin-left:3px; max-height:3.63em\" class=\"line_limit\"> [...]<\/span><\/span><span class=\"custom_fields\">\n<!-- WPLP Unknown field: Custom_Fields -->\n<\/span><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_left_2697_845\" class=\"wpcu-front-box left wpcu-custom-position\" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_right_2697_845\" class=\"wpcu-front-box right wpcu-custom-position\" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_bottom_2697_845\" class=\"wpcu-front-box bottom \" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/moll\/news-en\/a-great-representative-of-straubingens-mechanical-engineering-industry-is-quietly-saying-farewell\/\"  class=\"read-more\">Read more...<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/li><li id=\"wplp_li_2697_656\" data-post=\"656\" class=\"postno_8 masonry li-item-id blog_id_5\" style=\"\"><div class=\"insideframe\"><div id=\"wplp_box_top_2697_656\" class=\"wpcu-front-box top equalHeightImg\" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/mlr\/news-en\/new-automated-guided-vehicle\/\"  class=\"thumbnail\"><span class=\"img_cropper\" style=\"max-width:100%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/Plattformwagen-Caesar_PN-1_MYk.jpg\" style=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/Plattformwagen-Caesar_PN-1_MYk.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/Plattformwagen-Caesar_PN-1_MYk-300x155.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/Plattformwagen-Caesar_PN-1_MYk-768x396.jpg 768w\" alt=\"New Automated Guided Vehicle\" class=\"wplp_thumb\" \/><\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/mlr\/news-en\/new-automated-guided-vehicle\/\"  class=\"title\"><span style=\"height:2.7em\" class=\"line_limit\">New Automated Guided Vehicle<\/span><\/a><span class=\"date\">17.

The automated guided vehicle (FTF) is an upgrade of the &#8220;Caesar&#8221; series of MLR System, which are already used by well-known car manufacturers.\n\t\tThe new platform truck dimensions are 1,700 mm \u00d7 900 mm \u00d7 280 mm and is transport loads up to 1,000 kg. For convenient loading, the flat vehicles are equipped with a lifting unit that can be jacked to 177 mm if required. The drive concept with two combined travel and steering axles allows unlimited mobility in all directions. According to the Ludwigsburg-based company, these are the best conditions for high flexibility with little space available.The automated &#8220;Caesar&#8221; platform truck travels at a speed of up to 1.5 m\/s, has a modern energy concept and allows long running times with short loading cycles. Safety equipment such as personal security scanners, blue spots and 3D cameras for obstacle detection meet the highest standards for accident-free operation, also in interaction with people. Matching the design and colour scheme of its parent company ROFA, the new transport vehicle &#8220;Caesar PN-1.0 MYk&#8221; now comes in blue.<\/span><span style=\"margin-left:3px; max-height:3.63em\" class=\"line_limit\"> [...]<\/span><\/span><span class=\"custom_fields\">\n<!-- WPLP Unknown field: Custom_Fields -->\n<\/span><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_left_2697_656\" class=\"wpcu-front-box left wpcu-custom-position\" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_right_2697_656\" class=\"wpcu-front-box right wpcu-custom-position\" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_bottom_2697_656\" class=\"wpcu-front-box bottom \" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/mlr\/news-en\/new-automated-guided-vehicle\/\"  class=\"read-more\">Read more...<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/li><li id=\"wplp_li_2697_519\" data-post=\"519\" class=\"postno_9 masonry li-item-id blog_id_4\" style=\"\"><div class=\"insideframe\"><div id=\"wplp_box_top_2697_519\" class=\"wpcu-front-box top equalHeightImg\" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/moll\/news-en\/progress-through-know-how\/\"  class=\"thumbnail\"><span class=\"img_cropper\" style=\"max-width:100%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/moll-vorsprung-durch-know-how.jpg\" style=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/moll-vorsprung-durch-know-how.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/moll-vorsprung-durch-know-how-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/moll-vorsprung-durch-know-how-768x506.jpg 768w\" alt=\"Progress through know-how\" class=\"wplp_thumb\" \/><\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/moll\/news-en\/progress-through-know-how\/\"  class=\"title\"><span style=\"height:2.7em\" class=\"line_limit\">Progress through know-how<\/span><\/a><span class=\"date\">13. February 2020<\/span><span class=\"text\"><span style=\"max-height:3.63em\" class=\"line_limit\">Electric mobility, car sharing, autonomous driving: The automotive industry is currently undergoing a profound transformation. As a supplier of conveyor systems and special machinery, MOLL Automatisierung GmbH has recently been able to play a major role in the reconstruction of automobile plants. And the Leiblfing-based company also sees itself well prepared for the coming years.\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tImage: Managing directors of MOLL Automatisierung GmbH (from left to right: Stefan Bauer, Josef Moll, Thomas Wittmann)\n\t\tThe change has long been reflected in forecasts: by 2030, it is predicted, that every third new vehicle registered in Europe will be electrically powered, and in China it is even expected to be almost every second. Alternative mobility concepts such as car sharing are said to make up ten to 15 percent of total car sales by then. Technical advances in the field of autonomous driving will significantly change the design and functional equipment of vehicles over the next 15 to 20 years. For many automotive suppliers, this means drastic changes in their business models, combined with the risk of losing their place in the race between technologies and their various suppliers.\nMOLL Automatisierung, the Leiblfing-based supplier of conveyor systems and special machines, a member of the ROFA Group, has been able to adapt to this technological change in time. &#8220;We are currently in the privileged position of being involved in the reconstruction of automotive plants of all well-known OEMs. In 2019, this has brought us a total turnover of well over 100 million euros&#8221;, sums up Managing Director Josef Moll. In view of the increasing competition from China or Eastern Europe, we must keep an eye on the market, but there are still areas where the quality work of German engineers is in demand. In 2019, this has brought us a total turnover of well over 100 million euros&#8221;, sums up Managing Director Josef Moll. In view of the increasing competition from China or Eastern Europe, it is true that we must keep an eye on the market, but there are still areas where the quality work of German engineers is in demand.\nIn particular, Moll sees problems in the area of simple conveyor technology: &#8220;It is becoming increasingly difficult to keep up with foreign competitors in terms of price. This means that our product portfolio must be adapted to the new situation. We need to invest more in special mechanical engineering and automation technology, because here in particular, engineering know-how and product quality still count more than the price itself&#8221;.\nMarriage stations &#8211; the assembly of body and chassis &#8211; is one of the driving forces of MOLL Automatisierung. In this business sector, projects in Germany, South Africa and Mexico generated a sales of over 30 million euros in 2019. &#8220;We delivered our first marriage in 2003 for BMW in Dingolfing. Since then, we have developed into one of the top 5 suppliers worldwide. Our goal is to expand our position in the coming years and become more or less independent of developments in drive technologies. Because one thing is certain: even an electric car consists of a body and a chassis&#8221; jokes Moll.\nAccordingly, the company is aggressively facing the current economic downturn in the automotive industry. Moll: &#8220;Many suppliers are currently struggling with order bottlenecks or short-time work. On the other hand, after the final expansion of our production facilities, we can concentrate on expanding our engineering and building up the necessary know-how in this way. We hope that this will give us a decisive advantage in the upcoming years&#8221;.<\/span><span style=\"margin-left:3px; max-height:3.63em\" class=\"line_limit\"> [...]<\/span><\/span><span class=\"custom_fields\">\n<!-- WPLP Unknown field: Custom_Fields -->\n<\/span><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_left_2697_519\" class=\"wpcu-front-box left wpcu-custom-position\" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_right_2697_519\" class=\"wpcu-front-box right wpcu-custom-position\" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><\/div><\/div><div id=\"wplp_box_bottom_2697_519\" class=\"wpcu-front-box bottom \" ><div class=\"wplp-box-item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spie-automation-solutions.com\/moll\/news-en\/progress-through-know-how\/\"  class=\"read-more\">Read more...<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Electric mobility, car sharing, autonomous driving: The automotive industry is currently undergoing a profound transformation.
