How Unitronics is helping cooling OEMs answer that question - with a PLC, not an IT department
AVENTICS™ XV Valve Series
How automated fuel polishing and PLC control protect diesel backup power from contamination and failure
An independent jury comprising top-class experts from political and business communities, research, and the media, chaired by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Holger Hanselka, President of the Fraunhofer Society, has nominated three companies selected from the numerous submissions for the HERMES AWARD. The winner will be announced at the official opening ceremony of HANNOVER MESSE on April 19, 2026. The Federal Minister of Research, Technology and Space, Dorothee Bär, will present the award.
Why Redfish-Inside PLCs Are Reshaping Cooling, Control, and DCIM Integration
For reliable operation in environments up to 200°C
Reliable pallet and workpiece carrier positioning in automated systems
Alfa Laval is turning circularity into action with the launch of ThinkCircularity, a take-back programme that recycles materials from its ThinkTop valve control units. The pilot project has been well received by customers and partners
Valuable energy is lost in pressure reduction stations, exhaust steam pipes and condensation systems. With Energify system, the company CFT GmbH offers a simple and robust solution for the cost-effective conversion of even slight pressure differences into energy. This saves electricity costs and lowers CO₂ emissions. The system performance is controlled precisely with sliding gate valves from Schubert & Salzer.
At the Bürkert Trade Press Days we spoke with Georg Stawowy, CEO of Bürkert Fluid Control Systems about the concept of a regenerative economy.
Compact footprint with full liquid cooling and integration option to third-party EMS
Custom Coil Designs for Industrial and Robotics Systems
October marks the 50th year since ABB’s Low Voltage Variable Speed Drive was first brought to market. Developed by Finnish company Strömberg, which went on to become part of ABB, VSD have revolutionized industrial energy consumption and decarbonization
Flexible, modular workpiece transport can bring valuable extra speed to automated assembly with free pallets. Scalability is also enhanced, while built-in tracking provides traceability data to meet the requirements of demanding industries such as automotive.
Ensure accurate measurements and safe processes by overcoming the challenges of precision flow metering
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.
From Pasture to Pot: Preserving Nature’s Goodness
Compact and flexible sensor for safety, process control, and condition monitoring
With IO-Link interface and in-depth analysis for condition monitoring
Decarbonising industrial activities is key to mitigating climate change – but what happens to the carbon dioxide (CO2) we capture? Permanent sequestration can be difficult and expensive: so what if the captured CO2 could be reused to create a value stream? Whether you choose carbon capture and storage (CCS) or utilisation (CCUS), filtration technology plays a central role in achieving a high-quality end product.

Are you ready to enhance the performance and reliability of your machines? The new universal AVENTICS XV Valve Platform from Emerson is designed to meet your needs.
Integrated hardware and software for single-axis control of BLDC motors
Precise control of inert gases
Compact footprint with low power consumption
The degree of automation can vary greatly within the same plant – from very high in the core processes to almost nonexistent in the peripherals. The effort required to wire all circulating containers, external silos, manual valves, safety – critical doors, and manhole covers to the control room would be too great. The WILSEN autonomous IoT wireless sensor node establishes a connection to isolated assets – without any cables – and closes such information gaps.
Fully synchronous 16-channel data acquisition
Machines and systems are becoming more and more intelligent – and in many cases more complex as a result. This makes it all the more important that the processes in production are transparent and comprehensible at all times so that the teams in production and maintenance can make the right decisions. This is the only way to exploit the full potential of networked manufacturing environments.
Valve series features with higher flow rates in a compact design
Compact device series with enhanced functionalities and adaptability
Form A and Form B sizes for Zone 2 and 22
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...
Integrating all plant data into a single, collaborative system
The ODVA announced that process device profiles have been added to the EtherNet/IP Specification to provide automation practitioners with another critical tool to help optimize plant operations.
In this interview with Samuele Oliva, Product Marketing Manager, Dust Filtration Systems at Emerson, we reviewed what needs to be known about dust collecting systems and how to improve their overall efficiency.
New capabilities and flow rate to optimize processes in more applications
This addition to the OpreX™ Data Acquisition family is an AI-based tool for building equipment and quality anomaly predictive detection systems for GX series, GP series, and GM series SMARTDAC+™ paperless recorders and data loggers.
The reduction of the transmission pressure of natural gas networks to supply customers results in significant energy losses. Pilot project will use a turbine in the pipeline to drive an ABB generator that will recover lost energy to produce electricity
