Sioux & PSV take robot soccer to the next level
PSV Business Magazine asked our employees what the unique collaboration is all about. -
AXYT
Sioux brings high-tech to life. It does so not only within client projects, but also autonomously. For example, it developed the AXYT; a high speed, high accuracy planar stepping stage. Ronald Plak, System Architect at Sioux: ‘The prototype is ready and with this we show that Sioux is in the forefront in the field of fast and accurate positioning and the associated system knowledge.’ -
The future of metrology
We are developing measurement and control systems for the Einstein Telescope, Europe’s most advanced gravitational wave observatory, where precision reaches the zepto scale—one millionth of a femtometer. -
Innovating cancer surgery: how data-driven insights are saving lives
What if surgeons could instantly determine whether they have removed all cancerous tissue during surgery? With SamanTree’s Histolog® Scanner, this is becoming a reality. Read on to discover how Sioux and SamanTree have partnered to bring real-time cancer tissue identification to operating rooms, making tumor surgery more precise and effective. -
Future of EDX
Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX) is a method for determining the elemental composition of materials. It is of great value in various fields, including industry, geology, and medical science. At Sioux, we develop and produce the Ultra-X. This detection system for the Spectra Ultra S/TEM, a high-end transmission electron microscope from Thermo Fisher Scientific, represents the pinnacle of EDX technology. -
Why AI is revolutionizing high-tech machine configuration
The setup process of high-tech machines shouldn’t be a guessing game. Yet, currently this process of finding the final configuration is still done manually. This is slow, expensive and heavily reliant on expert knowledge. The solution? AI-powered machine configuration using a Recipe Builder approach. It speeds up the setup and configuration process and reduces errors, making operations smoother and more predictable. Here’s how it works and why it’s the future. -
29yearsofSioux
On 1 May 1996, Hans Duisters, together with Erik van Rijswijk, founded Sioux Technologies. Software engineer Peter van Knippenbergh (60) and test architect Dirk Coppelmans (61) decided at the time, without any hesitation, to embark on this new adventure with them. Together, they look back on the past 29 years. ‘I had just started at High Tech Automation, where Hans had brought me in. During our first meeting, he told me he was starting his own company. I immediately said, 'Then I'll come with you.' I didn't doubt it for a moment,’ Peter recounts. Dirk also jumped in at the deep end with complete confidence. ‘During my introductory meeting with Hans, we didn't talk about work at all, but about our outlook on life. That's when I knew: I'm going to do this.’ -
5 signs you should invest in AI-driven machine configuration
Manually setup of machines has long been the standard, but is it still the most effective approach? As industries evolve and production demands increase, many companies are rethinking their setup processes. Here are five key signs that indicate it’s time to invest. -
How Kadaster and Sioux Technologies are digitizing the Netherlands
For centuries, Kadaster’s hand-drawn field sketches formed the backbone of land registration in the Netherlands. Rich in detail but time-consuming to process, they needed a digital transformation. With over 5 million sketches waiting to be digitized, Kadaster turned to Sioux to help reimagine the future of cadastral mapping. Here’s how we did it. -
Milestone in high-tech Assembly
5 years ago, we brought our Nederweert and Eindhoven production sites together under one state-of-the-art roof, creating Sioux Technologies Assembly. This strategic move significantly boosted our operational efficiency and capacity.
