With its “Smart Process Gating” muting process, which does not use signaling sensors, Leuze electronic is qualified as a winner of the 2019 GIT Security Award for the “Best of Industry Award 2019”. In 2019, the “Best of Industry” awards will be presented by “MM Maschinenmarkt” for the fourth time. A jury of experts and […]

Many systems and machines require safety devices to prevent unauthorized access or intervention during operation. A simple light grid is in many cases not sufficient, for example to prevent the escape of noise, heat, dust, etc. from inside presses, robotic cells or injection molding equipment. Conversely, in the food and pharmaceutical industry, hygiene requires that […]

Industrial sensors continue to get smaller and smarter while the environments in which they operate continue to grow bigger and more demanding. With thousands of pieces of equipment operating in close proximity to one another, their power supplies quickly become cross-contaminated. As a result, the regulated voltage levels may only bear a vague resemblance to […]

New sensing solutions from Sensata Technologies, a world-leading manufacturer of sensors for industrial applications, are helping designers of hydronic HVAC systems to provide the essential pressure and temperature controls for a successful system design. A hydronic HVAC system utilizes water as the primary fluid to transfer energy throughout the building. Water has outstanding heat transfer […]

The solution for gas, humidity and temperature sensing remotely from the main control board is now available worldwide through Sensirion’s distribution network.

Pin-compatible upgrades for legacy Hall sensors

Flow sensor solutions for ventilators that include connectors and cable interfaces were launched in February 2019. They enable patient-side measurement of inhalation and exhalation flows. The different standardized variants are available to medical technology OEMs free of development and tooling costs. They are the product of the cooperation between the sensor manufacturer Sensirion AG and […]

In the last years the spray nozzles at windscreens have seen quite some development. The jet now comes as a fan jet or spot jet. A homogeneous spray mist application onto the intended angle range is now accurately guaranteed with fan jets, as is the point-shaped jet application on the front cameras by means of […]

Usually the color checking of color paint during production primarily is done in a laboratory. A paint sample is taken, and the color of this sample is then checked by way of a thin paint layer in dry condition. This process of course takes some time, time in which paint production might run out of […]

IO-Link inductive sensors with Smart Sensor Profile are easier to integrate into existing systems and can enhance maintenance strategies. Contrinex announces a new generation of cloud-ready sensors that takes standardization to the next level. Thanks to their Smart Sensor Profile (SSP), data from these new inductive IO-Link sensors has a highly uniform structure for greater […]
