Predictive maintenance prevents unplanned downtime. Fixed maintenance intervals, however, are preventive in nature, as true prediction requires real-time system status information and intelligent data evaluation. The Digital Twin Starter Kit from Bosch Digital Twin Industries and Pepperl+Fuchs offers an easy way to get started.
Robust and versatile encoders from MEGATRON optimize the intralogistics of autonomous transport vehicles. Whether with integrated CAN bus connection, locally programmable teach-in function or energy harvesting: the encoders offer maximum flexibility for the respective application.
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) has been the hero in the fight against friction and wear for years. However, there is also the other side of the coin: as a persistent material, PTFE is currently the focus of the discussion about a possible PFAS ban by the ECHA. Even if there is no ban, the motion plastics pioneer igus has good reasons to look for alternatives. With new formulations, extensive tests and adapted production processes, igus already offers its customers a wide range of PTFE-free products. Author: Dr-Ing. Magnus Orth is Head of Material Development and the Technical Centre at igus.
he Packaging Competence Centre (PCC) is a joint venture between packaging machinery manufacturer Gerhard Schubert GmbH and Berlin-based packaging consultancy Berndt+Partner Group. The new organisation brings together experts in the fields of regulation, packaging design, materials and automation technology to support manufacturers to develop and implement sustainable packaging.

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.

Electricity from renewable sources plays a crucial role in the energy transition. As sun and wind are only available depending on the time of day and the weather, green electricity cannot be generated at all times. This makes battery storage systems indispensable for a stable grid in the future. These storage systems are highly complex technological systems that require a great deal of expertise. LAPP is an expert in the necessary connection solutions and offers companies a comprehensive service.
The German sensor company and the Swiss measurement and automation technology specialist have agreed on a strategic partnership. Endress+Hauser will take over worldwide sales and service of SICK’s process analyzers and gas flowmeters, with a joint venture to be established for their production and further development.

Monitored changeover is an opportunity to optimise machines, reduce sources for potential errors and making them intuitive and quick to operate.
It is not a revelation to anyone in the industry that energy is the largest operating expense, accounting for the majority of utility costs. In manufacturing processes using compressed air, air compressors consume approximately 12% of the total electrical energy, and over the lifespan of an air compressor, 80% of the cost is energy use, and 20% is the cost of the unit including maintenance. Energy...
Smaller manufacturers are the fastest-growing area of industrial robotics today, driven by the need for new collaborative robotics systems.
Grasping and plugging cables is child's play! For us humans, yes. However, automated processing of such flexible parts presents robots with considerable challenges. Nevertheless, the potential is huge; in terms of efficiency and quality as well as in terms of relieving employees, for instance when it comes to handling large, heavy cables.
Air traffic and shipping are no longer conceivable without radar technology. Their electromagnetic waves provide extremely reliable signals for object detection and collision protection. What has proven itself over long distances at sea and in the air is just as useful at near range: radar also ensures precision and safety when controlling autonomous vehicles and machine booms. The new radar sensors from Pepperl+Fuchs are optimized for use in the intralogistics and material handling sections, among others.
