From land to water to industry

08. 12. 2025

In November, the Kolektor Mobility Group team actively participated in all key trade fairs. At the world’s leading events for agricultural machinery, nautical equipment, and industrial automation, the team presented innovative BLDC motors, drives, and e-pumps designed for electrified systems of the next generation of hybrid and electric vehicles, devices, and machines.

With the growing demand for sustainable and energy-efficient solutions, Kolektor’s products represent an important step forward. They not only meet current market requirements but also form a solid foundation for expanding the product portfolio that will be needed in the future.

Agritechnica, Hanover

This year's event once again confirmed that Agritechnica is the leading global accelerator of development for agriculture and agricultural machinery. With almost 3,000 exhibitors from 52 countries and more than 476,000 visitors from 171 countries, the event has established itself as an exceptional international hub for the industry. The seven-day event is an excellent B2B platform for the international supply industry. With the leading theme "Touch Smart Efficiency," representatives of agricultural machinery components and the entire agricultural sector once again gathered in Hanover.

At the trade fair, Kolektor Mobility presented its key technological solutions, i.e. electric oil pumps for hybrid transmission systems and ePTO devices, which significantly improve the energy efficiency and reliability of drive systems in modern agricultural machinery. One of the highlights of the exhibition were also 2–5 kW drive motors for robotic systems that set new standards for automation in land cultivation and crop monitoring (planting, weed control, spraying, etc.).

Metstrade, Amsterdam

Metstrade is the world’s most influential event for showcasing innovations and networking with experts in the leisure marine industry. At the largest edition so far, almost 1,700 exhibitors presented their solutions to more than 20,000 visitors over three days. The combination of record attendance, global diversity of exhibitors, and cutting-edge content gives participants access to global trends, a stronger partner network, new technologies, and concrete business opportunities.

At the Metstrade fair, we presented drives designed for modern marine solutions

In the spotlight of the Metstrade fair were outboard electric drives up to 1.5 kW, designed for modern nautical solutions, which we are developing in collaboration with Torqeedo (Yamaha) for Garmin and for sale through their distribution network. In addition, compact motors with a power output of less than 1 kW (BL62) were presented, which enable the efficient electrification of various devices and systems on larger vessels, including solutions for the automation of awnings and other auxiliary functions on vessels.

SPS – Smart Production Solutions, Nuremberg

SPS is an international trade fair for industrial automation, digital and smart manufacturing, covering the entire spectrum of automation solutions, from sensors and drives to advanced software solutions. Over three days, the exhibition center in Nuremberg opened its doors to the world of international automation, attracting nearly 56.000 visitors.

At SPS trade fair, the focus was on drive solutions for automation and robotics. The BL67 was presented as a 300 W drive suitable for integration into robotic joints, while the BL62 delivers 700 W of power. The BL90, designed for larger automated systems, delivers up to 1.5 kW. All solutions include integrated electronics and optional upgrades with gearboxes and electromagnetic brakes, enabling flexible and reliable applications in industrial robotics.

KVFlex feeder

Among 1.175 exhibitors, Kolektor Mobility presented not only drive products but also its automation program, specifically the KVFlex Feeder system with the integrated KV-Flex platform, a complete solution for managing vibratory feeders with advanced visual guidance for object handling in a 2D space.

An intensive year of trade fairs

This year was marked by a high level of trade fair activity and consistent participation in key industry events. In total, we carried out 45 trade fair visits, 19 of which included our own exhibition booth. At these events, we established contact with new potential partners and identified new opportunities to offer our solutions and strengthen our presence in markets beyond the automotive industry.

“The scope of the activities confirms our clear focus on active market positioning and direct communication with potential customers. It is evident that the post-COVID slowdown in trade fairs is now firmly behind us, and the growing attendance at events we participate in proves that our decision to increase visibility is both strategically justified and commercially sound,” explains Uroš Likar, Director. “We are particularly pleased that visitors can experience our products firsthand at our partners’ booths. For example, Agritechnica visitors were able to see our solutions integrated into the Tipard 500 from Digital Workbench GmbH, while Metstrade visitors were able to see the products from our partner Torqeedo.”
