The Flexy edge gateway is designed to simplify the process of extracting real-time data from machines using serial and Ethernet communications protocols by offering I/O drivers for PLC manufacturers including Siemens, Allen Bradly, Mitsubishi, ABB and others.

This book leverages the performance and documentation requirements defined in the ISA/IEC 61511 functional process safety standard coupled with the authors' nearly 80 years of safety system experience

Weighing under 400 lbs, the fixed bridge and moving table-type machine is light enough to be placed directly on existing workbenches and relocated without recalibration by a Hexagon engineer.

Digitata Networks Americas LLC is a woman owned and operated enterprise that offers intelligent subscriber-centric and network-centric solutions to monitor, audit, and control all major mobile technologies and domains, allowing Mobile Network Operators (MNO) to automate laborious operational tasks.

Through this partnership, The Qt Company and Toradex have committed to providing their customers with experience and support, when choosing the software and hardware to use with their next project.

By Yasunori Kobayashi, Yokogawa In today's competitive environment, process industry companies need to balance multiple objectives including safety, profitability and delivering value to customers. However, these objectives are often conflicting goals not aligned across departments, plants, or enterprise boundaries.

A controller uses a quantitative process model and modifies controller tuning based on how the process responds in relation to the model prediction.

This sensor features microwave sensors, which are known for high performance in unstable climates. The sensors send out waves, which are reflected by surrounding walls and objects.

Mitsubishi Electric’s portfolio of products and solutions include pre-configured diagnostic and maintenance screens, pre-configured operator screens and a pre-engineered application code library for designs. Pak/iQ is intended for bottling, pillowing and wrapping machines.

Vuzix M300 now supports 'TechSight', an augmented reality solution for distribution center workers developed by Honeywell's Intelligrated's for its Lifecycle Support Services customers.

Based on the results from the study, IFS believes digital transformation will continue to accelerate in coming years since only 5 percent of respondents expected their budgets to decrease.

Ruggedized to meet IEC 60068-2-6 (Vibration), IEC 60068-2-27 (Shock), MIL-STD-810F (Thermal Shock) and UL 62368-1 approved extends the application base of these power supplies into industrial markets.

Based on a patented microelectromechanical system (MEMS) tunable vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL), these light sources include an active power control that maintains constant output power over the lifetime of the laser.

This device can monitor digital on/off status, actuate relay outputs, and transmit or receive 4–20 mA signals over distances up to 20 miles. The I/O signals can be mirrored at other stations in the wireless network or mapped to Modbus RTU for integration into a Modbus host system.
