As CPUs grow more powerful, high-density cooling becomes increasingly important. Heat pipes are a sought-after solution in this area, their performance can only be increased by keeping an eye on the overall system.
How Unitronics is helping cooling OEMs answer that question - with a PLC, not an IT department
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.
PAUL RAUSCHERT STEINBACH GMBH has implemented Mitsubishi Electric's GENESIS energy management platform, transforming monthly compilation of 20-page spreadsheets into real-time energy insights and reducing peak consumption analysis from hours to minutes.

As the largest foreign exhibitor at Embedded World 2026 in Nuremberg from March 10 to 12, Taiwan will present a broad range of AI-driven innovations in electronics and computing.
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.
As the robotics sector steadily moves from science fiction to factory floor, a new generation of humanoid robots is emerging to reshape industry, healthcare, and daily life.

Intrinsically safe copper-based Ethernet to ATEX Zone 1
Electronics exposed to radiation can be prone to failure. Satellites and medical devices such as CT scanners are especially sensitive. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS in Dresden are working on an open-source tool that can be used to better prevent radiation-related loss of function.
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.
High protection against dust and humidity in industrial applications
NORD DRIVESYSTEMS accomplished the comprehensive relaunch of the central myNORD customer portal. The digital self-service solution focuses on an efficient and transparent procurement process.
Precisely tailored to the requirements of automated industrial processes
When it comes to the world of motion control, it’s easy to take your feedback device for granted. After all, it’s a small part of the system and is typically tucked inside the motor housing, out of sight and out of mind. However, the impact this seemingly minor component has on a system’s accuracy, performance, reliability, and ease of integration is hard to overstate.
Never change a running system – a wise saying in the IT world that is also followed by other disciplines. Nevertheless, it is often worthwhile to challenge existing concepts, as shown by the example of power electronics. Suitably dimensioned thermal management solutions can significantly improve the performance and life of electronic components, together with increased cost-effectiveness.
PLC Control Meets IIoT Cloud
With design engineers across the globe constantly innovating to meet growing demand for solutions that support an increasingly digitalised environment, expediting product/ solution development times is imperative for business success at both OEMs and system integrators. Increasing numbers are turning to solutions pre-certified for cybersecurity to save time and provide confidence in robust levels of protection against online threats.
