To improve efficiency of its stamping processes for future production runs, Ford Mexico worked with Altair to explore the possibility of using Altair's machine learning and predictive analytics solution to support its business objectives. Authors: John Fisher, Senior Sales Director EMEA, Altair & Alberto Ochoa Frías, D&R and Stamping Process Engineer, Ford
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.

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.

Robust and versatile encoders from MEGATRON optimize the intralogistics of autonomous transport vehicles. Whether with integrated CAN bus connection, locally programmable teach-in function or energy harvesting: the encoders offer maximum flexibility for the respective application.
Smaller, more efficient, and aesthetically enhanced OPV modules for sustainable, battery-free IoT and industrial applications
Leuze SmartID-Edge controls a network of identification systems and sensors for track-and-trace requirements in production and the supply chain. Secure communication between 1D scanners or 2D camera systems takes place at edge level using OPC UA and full integration of the AutoID Companion Specification. The advantage: Each object to be identified is not only represented by its code but also mapped on a virtual tag in the edge system.
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.
