Cast your vote today to weigh in on the best engineering innovations of the past year
The 2025 EDGE Awardsare open for voting now through June 21. This year, we have 66 submissions across 11 categories. Our voting is done by you, the engineers in industry, to decide which product launched in the past year is the most innovative in each category.
Winners and honorees will be chosen by you for each category. The submission that receives the most votes overall will be awarded the Leading Edge Award.
AI Data Analytics:Machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL) hardware and software that incorporates or is designed to improve product quality, supply chain management, and production throughput.
Cabling and Enclosures:Hardware meant to hold controls and electronics as well as monitor the temperature, pressure, humidity, etc. inside the enclosure, such as terminal blocks and cabinet coolers.
Communications & Networks:Wireless and wired systems, modules, and software that facilitate communication between chips, modules, and systems, including I/O modules, cloud communications.
Motion Control Components:Pneumatic, hydraulic, and electric motion control components and systems, including actuators, cylinders, ball screws, motors and drives, and accessories such as fasteners, bearings, gears, belts, and chains, as well as fluids, filters, and compressed air systems.
Production Tools and Systems:This includes creation of chips, printed circuit boards, components and systems as well as all mechanical and machine tool operations, welding, soldering, and adhesives focused on metal or component joining as well as materials used to fasten and secure components.
Robotics:Single-axis and multi-axis robots for assembly, product inspection, and supply chain use as well as cobots, AGVs, and other robotic transport vehicles. This also involves software related to robotics, including fleet management and robot operating systems.
