Precise and robust protection in compact design
Optical encoder for DC-Micromotors with maximum precision
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.
Encapsulated supercapacitor units for industrial environments
FF Series filter fans for reliable thermal Management
After years of use, many traction batteries still have a residual capacity of between 70 and 80 percent. While this may be too little for further use in vehicles, some cells could still serve well in large storage systems for households, businesses, or utility providers. Shredding used modules or entire high-voltage storage systems would thus waste valuable resources.
The largest oil producer in the Caribbean used Cogent DataHubTM software in a recent project to modernize their SCADA systems and integrate new IoT-enabled well-monitoring devices
NVIDIA announced the GA of Jetson Thor, and Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) is spotlighted for it’s role in accelerating the development of humanoids.
For fast, stable and precise short-range measurement
Adaptive, real-time control in a high-mix, temperature-sensitive environment - this was the challenge faced by Rutland Plastics in automating the insertion of M8 brass inserts into plastic assemblies with a heat-staking process.
For remote monitoring and data visualization in smart manufacturing
Real-time handling of process data at its point of production is an integral aspect of tomorrow’s automation system, enabling a more resilient operating environment for plant owners. ABB’s Kim Fenrich, Global Product Marketing Manager - DCS Platform, explains how edge computing complements the functional separation of core operations from a parallel layer of digital applications for monitoring and performance optimization.
Robust, flexible and easy to assemble for a wide application range
Innovative design for wireless, embedded and instrumentation systems
For precision positioning of heavy loads
Extension of high density modular and minimodular connector range
Functionally safe, reliable performance in the toughest industrial environments
By leveraging a digital twin and the AI-powered, fully automated software solution from Factor4Solutions, Stadtwerke Karlsruhe were able to reduce the annual energy consumption of the existing refrigeration system at the GartenCarée complex by 20 percent within just the first six months of operation – significantly increasing its efficiency. And the full potential is far from reached: for an entire year of operation, the utility expects energy savings of up to 40 percent.
IEN Europe interviewed Norman Hartmann, co-founder and CEO of Workerbase GmbH, who introduces the benefits of the Connected Worker Platform concept.
Compact designs with a wide range of electrical parameters
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. Author Dr. Christopher Anhalt is Vice President Product Marketing, Softing Industrial Automation GmbH
Maximum productivity requires not only precision manufacturing processes, but also smooth disposal of the generated waste materials. This is exactly where the new, fully automated waste disposal solution from KABELSCHLEPP Hünsborn comes in, which has just been successfully commissioned at the factory of agricultural machinery manufacturer AGCO Fendt in Asbach-Bäumenheim, Germany. The intelligent conveyor system ensures a smooth flow of materials – with minimum use of personnel and maximum efficiency.
Field-oriented control for energy efficient operation
For proactive maintenance of air systems and detection of energy saving potentials
High-performance DAQ system for evaluation and testing in different industrial areas
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.
Da Ros Srl, an Italian company, specializes in manufacturing agricultural machinery for nursery and vertical farms. One of their tools, a transplanter, provides assistance in day-to-day operations, as do the FAULHABER drive systems that are incorporated in this machine.
Easy-to-install single-axis condition monitoring sensor
Compact motor with built-in Industrial Ethernet interface
Video streaming with 5 MP resolution and highest ingress protection
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.
