Many vacuum systems still rely on analog gauges because they are simple and reliable. But digital gauges offer advantages in communication, diagnostics, and system integration. Find out when switching to digital vacuum measurement makes sense.
Designed for satellite missions in Low Earth Orbit
A report analysing a decade of data for over 1,000 large motors and generators delivered globally by ABB’s Västerås facility in Sweden shows that not aiming for the highest efficiency could be costing global operators up to $12 billion over a 25-year asset life. To mark the release of the report, we spoke with Gunnar Porsby, R&D Manager, High-Speed Synchronous Machines, ABB and David Bjerhag, Global Business Line Manager, High Speed Synchronous Motors, Generators and Condensers within ABB Motion’s High Power division.
Monitoring of hybrid communication structures in industrial environments in a single application
98% of companies are investing or planning to invest in energy efficiency. Yet, structural gaps in financing and internal capabilities are slowing delivery as rising energy costs tighten their grip on profitability
Conventional condition-monitoring systems detect bearing damage only after wear such as pitting or material loss has already occurred. HCP Sense takes a decisive step further: instead of monitoring the consequences of damage, the technology identifies its root causes at a very early stage. By directly detecting critical lubrication conditions before physical damage occurs, premature bearing failures can be actively prevented.

How automated fuel polishing and PLC control protect diesel backup power from contamination and failure
As automation systems grow more complex, machine builders are rethinking how they design and deploy motion. Nicola Pezzolato, Application Engineering Leader EMEA at Kollmorgen, explores how a new generation of servo technology is helping manufacturers simplify design, improve flexibility, and build greater resilience into their supply chains.
One platform designed to bring clarity to complex environments
More and more mobile robots are finding their way into industry. According to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), a total of 200,000 service robots were sold worldwide in 2024. 51% of this were robots for transport and logistics. Wherever human interaction, variable processes or frequent changes of location are required, humanoid robots are seen as a promising technology. In real life, however, their use often fails due to high investment costs and complex integration.

The integration of physical AI marks a paradigm shift in the manufacturing industry. It directly links AI models with deterministic control technology.
Hydrogen can be used in many ways as an energy source for industry and heavy goods transport, making it a key factor in transforming the energy supply. In addition to being produced from renewable energies, its availability is also crucial. IO-Link sensors from JUMO enable the rapid implementation and safe operation of a modular concept for hydrogen production. Author: Alexander Hof, Senior Product Manager Connectivity, JUMO
Fraunhofer project for better recycling processes of paper packaging
Reactive robotics has delivered enormous efficiency gains for industry. But the technology is reaching its economic limits: systems that only respond to the current state scale speed – but not stability. As process complexity grows, small misjudgements lead to costly downtime. Sereact is now introducing Cortex 2.0, a new generation of AI that evaluates the consequences of actions in advance and eliminates errors before they occur. The economic potential is immense.
