Expensive machine and vehicle breakdowns due to undetected faults in heavy-duty fixed flange bearings: these will soon be a thing of the past thanks to a new generation of two- and four-hole fixed flange bearings. Their special feature is that the bearings, which are made of lubrication-free high-performance plastic, are equipped with miniature wireless sensors, enabling condition monitoring and predictive maintenance.
Air traffic and shipping are no longer conceivable without radar technology. Their electromagnetic waves provide extremely reliable signals for object detection and collision protection. What has proven itself over long distances at sea and in the air is just as useful at near range: radar also ensures precision and safety when controlling autonomous vehicles and machine booms. The new radar sensors from Pepperl+Fuchs are optimized for use in the intralogistics and material handling sections, among others.

With its radar imager, Balluff scans through packages for completeness, integrity, and foreign objects. Customers can benefit from efficient, in-line quality control at the end of the line.
Collaborative robots, or cobots, are making their presence felt in ever more applications, working alongside humans wherever production requires the decision making and discrimination abilities of humans, combined with unceasing production, dexterity and precision of cobots.
Smart connectors facilitate the remote digital monitoring of installations. TE Connectivity (TE) and tacterion have partnered to develop these cutting-edge components. The first joint steps involve designing outstanding connectors for modular machines used in smart factories. Taking into account early customer feedback, the portfolio will undergo continuous expansion and enhancement.
