Why partner with I&W Engineering

“As an innovative engineer, I had the idea to build the asparagus harvesting robot of the future. When I realized that no suitable drive existed on the market, it quickly became clear that I had to create one myself. I&W Engineering was born out of pioneering spirit – which is why we understand people like you, who develop and advance products with true innovative power.”

Frequently Asked Questions​

Our electric drive systems are designed for operating voltages from 24 to 800 V DC. This covers a wide range of applications, from compact mobile robotics solutions to high-performance off-highway vehicles and specialized industrial machinery.

The I&W electric final drive is a compact, integrated drive unit that combines a high-efficiency electric motor, a safety brake, and a precision-engineered planetary gearbox in one sealed system. It is particularly suited for autonomous vehicles, robotic platforms, agricultural robots, and off-highway machines where power, controllability, and compact design are crucial.​

Our drive systems are supplied as standard with IP65 protection. For more demanding environments, variants with IP67 or higher are available on request, depending on the specific application, operating conditions, and sealing configuration.

No, we supply from quantity one. For series customers, we offer attractive tiered pricing, framework agreements, and technical support for integration and further development.

Delivery time depends on the product type and level of customization. Standard products are typically delivered within 4 to 6 weeks. Customized versions may take 8 to 12 weeks, depending on project scope and complexity. For urgent requests, prototypes, or short-term project needs, we are happy to explore individual solutions – just contact us directly.​

Yes, tailor-made solutions are part of our core business. Whether special mechanical interfaces, software integration, or tuned performance parameters – we design and manufacture custom electric drives precisely matched to your application and requirements.

Sustainability and durability are central to our product design. Our drives are modular, maintenance-friendly, and engineered for repair or later refurbishment. On request, we also evaluate return and recycling options at the end of the product lifecycle.
