The winners of the 7th vector award 2020

Contest for inspiring energy solutions and e-chain systems with cables ...

Modern polymer energy supply chains are the umbilical cord of automation. They ensure the safe supply of energy, data, signals and media, whilst being continuously in motion. From cranes to machine tools, from industrial robots to laboratory technology, they can be used universally. The vector award is for creative applications involving the use of energy supply systems. In the form of energy chains with cables and hoses.

266 entries from 32 countries were submitted for the 2020 vector award . Each proposal was examined intensively – In the second stage of the selection process, the members of the jury were given the entries that complied with the strict conditions of the competition.
