EDITORIAL The Tracks have been set Dear Readers, as the greatest national economy in the world, the USA, and its adjacent states of Canada and Mexico, are some of the most important countries regarding automation potential, and thus of course also drive and fluid technology. Specifically as an export market, they still play an important role. Where the US automotive industry and its suppliers were in an extended phrase of stagnation in the last few years, they are now investing in production technology more strongly again. This noticeable economic recovery not only influences the US-internal economy, but also opens up new opportunities for companies from other countries. North America is on a good path, even though the economic development isn’t going as consistently as we would like it to. The country has set the tracks, though, to become a future market both for engineering in general and drive technology in particular. The subject of energy efficiency has taken over a very important role now. Additionally, “Industry 4.0”, the “Internet of Things” and increasing automation are growing more and more relevant in the USA. This in turn gives globally acting companies access to the country of unlimited opportunities. This issue of MDA Technologies will deal with the US market for drive and fluid technology. The MDA North America (www.mda-na.com) – the new trade fair for Motion Control, Power Transmission and Fluid Technology – is at the focus. It will debut in Chicago from 8 to 13 September. The strategic partnership with the IMTS and the Industrial Automation North America makes the event as a whole one of the largest production technology trade fairs of this hemisphere. The show impressively documents how important small gears, bearings and motors are for the sustainability and productivity of machines and plants. Come and have a look. We wish you lots of fun reading. If you want to get the next issues as an E-paper free of charge, register under www.mda-technologies.com. It pays off!
