The marine industry's push toward greener operations is gathering real momentum, and passenger ferry operators in the United States are among those feeling the pressure to act.
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.

3D printing in companies is booming. Design engineers are printing special components and wear-resistant parts themselves without further ado. However, the projects stand or fall on the quality of the printing material, warns Jonas Burk, Head of Additive Manufacturing at igus. The fact that 3D printing with high-performance polymers from igus is worthwhile is not only proven by the service life tests. Customers can also manufacture their products more economically and faster than injection moulding.
High machine availability is enabled by the integrated IO-Link interface, which provides access to sensor parameters, diagnostics and process data.
Danube Dynamics and Aspöck Systems automate complex lamp inspections using adaptive AI and IDS industrial cameras to ensure accuracy, flexibility and full traceability under real production conditions.

The Essen-based company Greenflash, in collaboration with STABL Energy, has implemented an intelligent energy system for their joint customer, the duo Giga Coating and System Trailers in the Emsland region. The combination of photovoltaics and energy storage using recycled electric car batteries is controlled by the new AI-based software Greencore AI from Greenflash. This offers advantages to energy-intensive industrial enterprises such as Giga Coating and System Trailers that were hardly viable on this scale in the past.

The first phase of the autumn session of the Canton Fair has started, showcasing innovations until 19 October.
The world's largest business event in terms of scale, with over 30,000 exhibiting companies spread across 1.55 million square meters will take place in Guangzhou, China.
Canton Fair is a key symbol of China's opening-up and a core platform for international trade cooperation, honored as "China's Top Expo". It will open in Guangzhou on October 15, 2025, with a total exhibition area of about 1.55 million square meters.
The deployment of robots in factories worldwide reached and passed 4 million last year, representing a doubling of robot density over the past seven years. Author: Amy Taylor, Director, Marketing – Industrial, SiTime
After years of use, many traction batteries still have a residual capacity of between 70 and 80 percent. While this may be too little for further use in vehicles, some cells could still serve well in large storage systems for households, businesses, or utility providers. Shredding used modules or entire high-voltage storage systems would thus waste valuable resources.

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.
The first phase of the 137th Canton Fair, with the theme of "advanced manufacturing", kicked off on April 15. As of April 19, 148,585 overseas buyers from 216 countries and regions visited the fair.
The supply of a 3,000 hp frequency inverter for large shredder plant at S. Norton Group in Manchester helps with significant reduction in energy consumption
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.
Polaron’s AI model explores thousands of material designs for next-generation batteries in under a day - a task that takes current state-of-the-art simulations around 50 years. This achievement wins the annual multi-million-pound Manchester Prize from the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology in the United Kingdom.
China Import and Export Fair, also known as the “Canton Fair”, is the World’s No.1 Expo in terms of scale. Canton Fair will see its 137th session to be held from April 15 to May 5, 2025 in Guangzhou, China
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.
The China Import and Export Fair, also known as the Canton Fair, is the world's No. 1 expo in terms of size. The 137th edition of the Canton Fair will be held from 15 April to 5 May 2025 in Guangzhou, China.
The Application Park will be one of the highlights of HANNOVER MESSE this year and present new and exciting robotics applications.
