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.
We spoke to Travis Cox (Chief Technology Evangelist, Inductive Automation). He has been with the company since 2004, connecting industry experts, promoting innovation and open standards, and showcasing the capabilities of the Ignition platform.
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.

Today, vision sensors can be used to implement first-class solutions for many sensor tasks in production, quality assurance, logistics, packaging, and beyond. Raw data sensors offer the greatest possible flexibility in terms of adaptation to special requirements and customer wishes. On the customer side, however, this is associated with a comparatively high programming effort. The SmartRunner Explorer 2-D and 3-D device family from Pepperl+Fuchs shows that this does not have to be the case.
