Promising alternative to LiDAR systems on track to receive SIL2/PL d safety certification
According to the International Society of Automation, factories worldwide lose 5-20% of their productive capacity to unplanned downtime. With supply chain disruptions increasing, Mitsubishi Electric's predictive maintenance solutions help manufacturers identify equipment failures before they occur, maintaining operational continuity.

Kollmorgen servo motors are now available with a new generation feedback device. Offered at no additional cost over erlier models, this encoder offers four times greater positioning accuracy and uses energy-harvesting technology to track absolute multi-turn positioning even when the system is powered off.
Reduce overall system costs with high-resolution incremental encoders
For significant reduction in interference and improved network performance
The main goal of this cooperation is to develop a future ready gearmotors based on ultra-high efficiency EM-A series motors. By combining effort together with Tramec, Mitsubishi Electric is expanding its product range with components for customers seeking high-end drive solutions and improved energy efficiency.
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.

Durable components for use in a wide range of industrial tasks
Since life began some 1 billion years ago, an intricate web of cycles and relationships has developed. Sunlight is the only input, and nothing is wasted. For the electrical industry, adopting a more circular approach to manufacturing can advance sustainability and offer unique economic opportunities, say Fernando Nuño and Bruno De Wachter, members of the advisory board for electrical manufacturing trade show, CWIEME Berlin.

What is the generative economy? And how do supply chain virtual twins play a role in this generative economy? Carlijn Goedhart, Sustainability Lead at DELMIA explores these questions in greater detail.
Cylindrical proximity sensors for safety applications
From driving a pump to actuating an injector, medical devices that provide patient treatment rely on motion systems. Dependent on the profile of the medication, the environment of use, and the needs of the patient, these devices could be disposable, intended for one-time use, or reusable. This decision directly impacts the motion system specification, so to ensure a smooth development process and quality patient outcome, motion design should be involved at the earliest opportunity.
Affordable connectivity for large distances of up to 1.000 m in large plants
A hydrogen-fuelled kiln test rig is helping brick and ceramics manufacturers to support the energy transition. In a first for the UK, a kiln and furnace manufacturer has partnered with flow control specialist Bürkert to manage the precise and reliable control of hydrogen. The result for end users is increased production quality and confidence in the transition to hydrogen, enabling a more sustainable process.
Combating climate change is a serious challenge, with a nearly overwhelming array of issues to overcome. Sustainability-minded people do their best to lessen their personal carbon footprint by using public transportation, driving an EV, cutting back on energy usage, etc. But the biggest culprit in carbon emissions is actually industry, representing an estimated 23% of all greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S as the U.S. Environmential Protection Agency published.
On the occasion of the company's 80th anniversary, IEN Europe spoke to Florian Haas, VP Global Marketing from Traco Power about industrial power supplies and the demands they face now and in the future.
For modern automated systems, those responsible are faced with the challenge of finding efficient cabling solutions that fulfil both the high performance and data transmission requirements. Traditional cabling systems often provide for separate cables for these purposes, which leads to increased effort and higher costs. One Cable Solutions (OCS) solve these challenges and thus also meet the growing requirements of the IIoT.
Alessandro Gomarasca, Product Development Manager at Servotecnica, discussed with our editorial team a distribution agreement that promises to integrate skills and technologies, opening new horizons in the European market.
The newly developed D-Ankle prosthesis from Design Pro Technology makes this possible. Instead of the usual passive suspension at the foot components, the prosthesis assists its user by means of motor power. As is the case with a natural gait, the artificial foot is actively bent up and down with each step. The gait becomes more harmonious, more stable and less tiring. An intelligent controller finds the correct gait rhythm and a brushless motor from FAULHABER provides the necessary propulsion.
