Hydraulic applications rely on fluid power or the use of pressurized fluids to generate, control and transmit power. These types of systems can produce high power and high forces in small volumes and have long service lives. Fluid power is used in a wide range of industrial applications including self-propelled scissor lifts, injection molding, machine tools, steel making and metal extraction, paper industries, textile machinery, disability lifts and security and parking barriers.
 
Pressure sensors are critical components in these systems, where they are used...

In developing the uEye XLE family, camera manufacturer IDS kept the focus on integrating essential camera functions, thus consistently optimising the cost of the models. Their versatile design, a practical USB3 interface (SuperSpeed USB, 5 Gpbs) and support of the USB3 Vision standard ensure a wide range of application fields – for example in manufacturing, measurement technology, traffic monitoring and agriculture. The compact industrial cameras can be ordered as of now.

Thanks to different housing variants (single-board with different mount...

Haydon Kerk has developed a Dual Guide Rail specifically for the Xenex Robot application. The Xenex robot uses ultraviolet light to disinfect and sanitize the surrounding area.

The Haydon Kerk Dual Guide mobilizes the UV light as it ascends and descends out of the robot. A field-friendly solution for Xenex’s disinfecting robot – helping hospitals reduce infection rates by 50-100% and contributing to the fight against COVID-19.
 

A fast measurement speed, achieved within tight cost and size constraints while integrating the primary conductor in SO packages without compromising the necessary insulation, is often as critical as the other high performances for current measurement in motor-drive applications.

A unique sensor from LEM International with an integrated primary conductor achieves optimum temperature accuracy, measuring from -40 to +125 °C in a surface mounted SO8 or SO16 package.
