Canton Fair is a key symbol of China's opening-up and a core platform for international trade cooperation, honored as "China's Top Expo". It will open in Guangzhou on October 15, 2025, with a total exhibition area of about 1.55 million square meters.
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.

Digitalization is opening up new possibilities in robotics and mechanical engineering. Networked ecosystems, intelligent components and smart services are the key to unlocking huge potential in terms of productivity, efficiency, process reliability, maintenance and availability. Gearboxes play a special role in this. Nabtesco, the world's largest manufacturer of precision gearboxes, knows the challenges and offers unique solutions for the digital transformation of industry.
Enabling SIL2 designs with pre-built templates for reliable performance in demanding, safety-critical applications
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.

Robust and compact with an arc-free design and extended switching cycles for a long and safe product life
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.
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.

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.
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.
