"Engineering motion you can rely on."
German-engineered linear motion and positioning systems, including ERO Botics linear robots for precision machine tending and pick-and-place.
ERO Technologies designs and manufactures linear motion and positioning solutions, ranging from standard catalog components to complete automation systems and customized OEM modules. The company organizes its offering into three divisions. ERO Linear delivers configurable linear motion slides and stages with hundreds of variations for applications such as microscope cross tables, camera focus units, conveyor adjustments and precision measurement axes.
ERO Botics builds linear robots in 2- to 7-axis configurations that target machine tending, pick-and-place, dosing, inspection and optical processes, positioned as a faster, higher-precision and lower-cost alternative to articulated 6-axis arms. ERO Fuehrungen develops complete custom positioning systems for OEMs and machine builders in laser systems, semiconductor equipment, metrology, aerospace, automotive, optics, grinding, milling and engraving. Products are developed and manufactured in Germany under a "Made in Germany" standard, with the company drawing on over 60 years of Black Forest engineering heritage. ERO Technologies Inc. provides local US sales and engineering support from Gastonia, North Carolina, coordinating with the German engineering and production teams to serve customers across general machine building, automation and special-purpose machinery.
The company offers technical consultation during selection, configuration and development phases, and supplies documentation and CAD data on request. ERO is certified to DIN EN ISO 9001:2015. Its work is led by President Lukas Dieterle, supported by engineering, product management and application engineering teams.

ParaZero Technologies has introduced its DefendAir platform, designed to intercept first-person view (FPV) drones autonomously before they can strike military vehicles. This system utilizes a non-explosive net-based interception method, creating a 360-degree defensive envelope around assets. The platform aims to enhance protection for both moving and stationary high-value military targets without the weight penalties of traditional armor. The rise of low-cost FPV drones has prompted militaries to seek effective countermeasures, as these drones have proven capable of damaging expensive military equipment. ParaZero's DefendAir addresses the limitations of conventional protective measures, such as steel cages, by offering a more agile and responsive solution. The system's ability to detect and neutralize threats rapidly is crucial for modern battlefield scenarios, where speed and precision are paramount. ParaZero is currently collaborating with Tier-1 defense companies to refine the DefendAir technology for operational requirements. While the company has not disclosed specific partners or a timeline for deployment, the focus on active counter-drone systems reflects a broader trend in military strategy, emphasizing the need for innovative solutions to counter evolving aerial threats. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
