Wiferion

Wiferion is a leading technology driver in the field of wireless power supply for mobile robots (AGVs/AMRs) and industrial trucks. Founded in 2016 by four former employees of the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems, Wiferion is headquartered in Freiburg, Germany.

Wiferion offers a wide range of innovative products and solutions focused on inductive charging systems, lithium batteries, and related energy management solutions. The main products include:

• etaLINK Charging Systems: These patented, contactless fast charging systems like the etaLINK 3000 and CW1000 are specifically designed for industrial electric vehicles and mobile robots. They enable what is known as "in process charging," which saves time and is safer than conventional charging methods with open contacts[1][3][4].

• Lithium Batteries: Wiferion supplies various types of lithium batteries, particularly the LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) batteries, which stand out due to their long lifespan, high discharge depth, and intrinsically safe chemistry. These batteries are ideal for 24/7 applications and offer a capacity of 0.5 kWh to 12 kWh[1].

• Retrofit Solutions: The etaTRAY system enables wireless, inductive battery troughs that can be easily integrated into existing fleets to facilitate automation and interim charging[1].

Wiferion is committed to advancing the electrification of the economy and focuses on tailored solutions around inductive power supply and batteries. The company places great importance on innovation, sustainability, and the continuous improvement of fleet efficiency. By eliminating unnecessary machine downtimes and integrating lean manufacturing principles, Wiferion aims to sustainably increase fleet utilization and efficiency by up to 30%[3].

Wiferion is dedicated to creating a resource-efficient and sustainable power supply. The inductive charging systems and modern battery technologies help reduce environmental impact and increase efficiency in intralogistics and robotics. By avoiding plug and sliding contacts, potential hazards are minimized and safety is maximized[1][3].

Since 2023, Wiferion has been part of PULS GmbH, a market leader in DIN rail power supplies. This partnership allows Wiferion to expand its global activities and benefit from the extensive resources and global distribution network of the PULS Group. Wiferion has already sold over 3000 etaLINK systems in more than 20 countries and collaborates with leading automation solution providers such as Safelog, KUKA, and Magazino[3].

Wiferion stands for innovative, efficient, and sustainable power supply solutions that shape the future of mobile robotics and intralogistics. With its focus on technology, sustainability, and customer orientation, Wiferion positions itself as a leading provider in its market segment.
