RC-Reporter works to bring clarity to building performance analytics with readable, reliable, and rational reports, delivered automatically by email, or integrated directly into building control systems.

HANNOVER MESSE USA will highlight the entire scope of Industry 4.0 and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) solutions from digital ecosystems to engineered parts & solutions; automation, motion & drives; energy solutions, augmented reality, AI & robotics; and more.

The first testbed for the rail transportation industry, the LTE for Metro Testbed shows the feasibility of adapting LTE for Metro technologies for the urban rail sector.

New technology is making it possible for these OEMs to re-engineer their processes and operations, better support their customers, and capture increasing aftermarket business.

ABB, a supplier of industrial robots, and Silicon Valley AI start-up, Covariant, announced a partnership to bring AI-enabled robotics solutions to market, starting with a fully autonomous warehouse order fulfilment solution.

The EMpro tracks energy parameters such as voltage, current, and power at the machine or system level. It then communicates that data locally, or transmits it to cloud-based services, creating an IIoT energy-monitoring solution.

Process historians were once simply software packages that stored and presented real-time process data, but today historians are being used for much more.

The 3FG15 gripper has a maximum stroke of 150mm that can easily handle multiple processes. The three-finger design with a 15 kg (33 lb) payload provides a strong, stable grip for both form fit (internal) or friction fit (external) gripping.

The congatec Embedded Vision Platform is designed for embedded vision applications such as automated checkout systems in retail, surveillance and access control systems in facility management, industrial inspection systems for quality assurance, augmented reality for maintenance, and image processing in mobile and portable medical technology.

This solution is designed for Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) devices, Edge Controllers, and high-end real-time hardware and workload consolidation.

To maintain a constant (rated) flux density, the applied voltage must also be changed in the same proportion as the frequency (per Faraday’s law).

The encoders can satisfy needs in a range of industries, including entertainment, material handling, mining and automotive manufacturing.

To fight the coronavirus, China completed construction of two new field hospitals in Wuhan in just 10 days. Power management company Eaton and its partner electrical contractors and distributors were part of the construction project at the Huoshenshan and Leishenshan Hospitals that delivered an additional 2,500 hospital beds to the front line of this global health emergency.

Multi-conductor flexible control cable from AutomationDirect is now available in 20 AWG unshielded models with 3 to 25 conductors including ground.

The Local Hand Station is suitable for applications such as large penstocks, where it is difficult to access the actuator due to height, in chamber applications where the actuator is located below the ground and space is limited or for control when the actuator/device may be in a hazardous location.

Honeywell Forge Energy Optimization is an autonomous building solution focused on decreasing energy consumption.

The WIN5 works with load cells in weighing measurement systems and is designed for simple industrial applications.

Although few engineers now hesitate to use wireless for monitoring purposes, wireless valve control has not enjoyed such success.

“5G for Business” is devoted to the fifth-generation wireless technology, its application to different fields and sectors, and related opportunities to the city’s business. The first issue is dedicated to the theme of 5G and its use in immersive technologies, including artificial intelligence (AR), Virtual Reality (VR) and 360 ° video.
