  "account": "In Trumpf's Ditzingen development center, the revolution in robotics begins not with a spectacular-looking robot, but when machines start making decisions on their own. While robotics is not the core focus of the family-owned company, which specializes in laser technology, they strive to stay ahead of the latest technologies and work closely with research and academia. The secret to Trumpf's success lies in making robots and machines more intelligent, enhancing their capabilities to complement and improve existing systems like sheet metal machines. The Chinese competition has increasingly posed a challenge to Trumpf's long-standing world market leadership. To counter this, the company is focused on developing intelligent industrial robots that create competitive advantages. Contrary to popular images of a human-like machine, Ralph Lange, the robotics chief at Trumpf, emphasizes that a robot only needs to have the necessary features to be effective, regardless of the number of arms, head, or any other parts. The intelligence can reside within the robot itself or in the cloud.",
  "summary": "Für Trumpf reicht es nicht mehr, nur die besten Laser zu bauen. Was im Kampf gegen chinesische Konkurrenten zählt, sind Gesamtsysteme mit Robotik. Trumpf erobert das neue Feld mit KI.",
