A space-saving, robust solution with fibre-optic sensors detects seal failures, preventing greater transmission damage and enabling reliable controlled shutdowns.
In order to save costs and time, more and more industrial companies are focussing on the possibility of monitoring and controlling devices and systems remotely. Web and cloud-based services are ideal for this: an internet connection makes it possible to control and operate industrial systems as if you were on site and long journeys by service personnel are no longer necessary.

Humanoids are considered to be the next big thing in robotics: China has set out specific targets for its plans to mass-produce humanoids, tech companies in the US and Europe are announcing significant funding. The vision is to create general-purpose robots based on human motion mechanics. The International Federation of Robotics has released a new positioning paper that provides valuable insights about trends, opportunities, and potential limitations of humanoids.
Maximum visibility for use in compact, mobile systems
New release brings more features for diagnostics of PLC-controlled systems
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.
Whether you’re talking about hybrid regional jets to next-generation air taxis it’s increasingly clear that the future of flight is electric, and electromechanical (EM) actuation is playing a central role in making this a reality. As aircraft systems move away from hydraulics and pneumatics in favor of all-electric architectures.

OPC UA is widely used as a data exchange standard that bridges the gap between OT and IT. A key part of this standard consists of extensible information models and companion specifications. However, many solutions based on OPC UA fail to exploit the potential of these information models and companion specifications. This editorial explains the benefits offered by OPC UA information models and how information models interact with the other components in an IoT solution.
