Leuze SmartID-Edge controls a network of identification systems and sensors for track-and-trace requirements in production and the supply chain. Secure communication between 1D scanners or 2D camera systems takes place at edge level using OPC UA and full integration of the AutoID Companion Specification. The advantage: Each object to be identified is not only represented by its code but also mapped on a virtual tag in the edge system.

Embedded RESTful API facilitates data transfer between I/O Modules and network clients
Detecting objects or measuring fill levels while maintaining full communication: Due to these capabilities, the rugged UB*-F42 ultrasonic sensor from Pepperl+Fuchs is suitable for use in a wide range of applications, including vehicle detection, consumption measurement for rolls of material, and stock level monitoring in dusty gravel silos. The devices transmit differentiated process and status data via an IOLink interface to ensure optimized control and targeted predictive maintenance.
In this IEN Europe interview with Rob Watkinson, Sales Manager at Resolve Optics, we discuss the advantages of bespoke lenses for scientific applications and the company's experience and expertise in this area
The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft will be represented at the world’s largest industrial trade show with a joint booth showcasing highlights from different technological fields.
USB3 cameras for precise capture of fast-moving objects with less data
We spoke with Marco Zampolli, IoT Automation product Sales Director from Advantech about trends in modern factory automation concepts.
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.
Dr. Susanne Krichel, Head of Global Innovation & Advanced Technology, Lapp about cabling and how it helps to drive innovation.

Industrial cameras with Sony's Starvis 2 sensors help unlock the potential of planetary imaging
Particularly in the field of precision manufacturing, many companies have neither the necessary personnel nor the corresponding vertical integration to develop mechanics and control systems in parallel. As a result, the supplier's expertise is becoming increasingly important. And this is where Aerotech's real work begins: after a detailed integration consultation, customers receive either individual components, a seamlessly integrated subsystem or a complete automation solution.
nokra GmbH of Baesweiler produces laser measuring systems for contactless measurement of geometric properties as an integral part of the production process. Since the objects being measured can become quite hot, effective thermal management is essential in such systems. This task is performed by extremely flat liquid-cooled heat sinks from CTX Thermal Solutions.
