By providing integrated networks with tested interoperability and documented in validated reference designs, the two companies help to ensure that integrated OT/IT systems can be installed, operated more securely, and supported efficiently.

A thermocouple contains two different conductors that produce a voltage proportional to a temperature difference between the ends of a pair of conductors.

As of now, product manufacturers can use the seal to promote their battery-free, wireless switches integrating EnOcean’s energy harvesting technology for wireless standards in the sub-1 GHz and 2.4 GHz range.

Sinn’s core focus will be helping companies, leveraging the MonarchFx ecosystem, to build customer-centric fulfillment systems.

Intended for basic ICS security monitoring, this version is free of charge and easy to configure. No special technical knowledge is needed. Downloading and getting started with PT ISIM freeView Sensor takes minutes.

Executives at respondent companies, ranging from manufacturers to trade contractors and oil and gas companies, are collecting more data from connected devices, integrating it with other systems in new ways, and making IoT more central to their businesses.

Common applications for the RCN 6000 encoders are large-scale rotary tables and radio telescopes which can adapt their design to the encoder while the integrated stator coupling ensures alignment of the components involved in the scanning process, even if there are deviations in the shaft coupling.

The drives now offer an expanded power range, for engineers with applications from 10 to 6,000 horsepower (7.5 to 4,500 kW). The expansion brings harmonic mitigation, regeneration and common bus-system configurations to a range of high-demand applications.

The single-phase 12 V and 24 V power supply units have an input for alternating voltage which also enables the connection to direct voltage and is particularly resistant to undervoltage and overvoltage.

The certifications are based on the IEC 62443-2-4 and IEC 62443-3-3 standards, which lay a foundation of cyber defense mechanisms for automation system networks and cover the specific requirements for developing and designing secure systems.

By Martin Grune & Patrick Kraus, infoteam Software AG How can production be optimized, where can improvement opportunities be found, which processes may even indirectly slow down operative business from the background? Overall Equipment Effectiveness (GAE) or Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) has established itself as the key performance indicator for this.

Clippard designs and manufacturers over 5,000 standard and custom products including electronic, control and isolation valves, cylinders, manifolds, FRLs, actuators, custom assemblies and much more.

Power is generated by hydro plants located in the northern and western areas of the country and by wind farms located along the east coast. It is then transmitted over long distances to urban load centers located in the southeast.

ISA has created a continuous improvement culture that sets a framework for sustainable growth and value for members, automation professionals, and customers.

The “469” series model, which enables manufacturers to cater for dynamic strain application.

The release of these two systems comes as FieldComm Group works to simplify the experience users have with industrial standards and their integration across systems and enterprises, for the industry’s transition to IIoT and Industry 4.0.

By Jonathan Wilkins, EU Automation This article explains how autonomous maintenance, one of the pillars of total productive maintenance (TPM) requires the whole manufacturing team to take responsibility for maintenance.

The Receiving/Transfer application is custom designed to suit the exact needs of the application. This includes allowing for manual control or to include the ability for automatic receiving and transfer stepswithin a facility.

Rexroth‘s IoT Gateway works to bring companies closer to the strategic goal of networking all relevant machines and systems and making processes for evaluation and continuous improvement.

The Connected Mine helps mining companies collect and aggregate data to gain end-to-end visibility into their operations and make informed business decisions to improve mining operations.
