Wipro’s Automotive Innovation Center will develop and showcase solutions that leverage artificial intelligence, analytics, Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT), cloud and crowd sourcing.

The fanless design will operate in temperatures up to 140° F, up to 95% humidity. The board can be adapted to a variety of purposes with built in support for Windows 10, Windows 10 IoT, or Ubuntu Linux.

Designed with a stainless-steel probe assembly and ¾” diameter hermetically-sealed housing, these spring-loaded sensors operate in environments with dirt, water, vibration and temperature ranges of -65° to 220°F while providing position measurement with maximum linearity of +0.25% of full-scale output.

With the release of CODESYS V3.5 SP14 in December 2018, the functionality of CODESYS Control has been extended. The runtime system is now available in a 64-bit version for all ARM/Cortex-based platforms, optionally with multicore support for Raspberry Pi, and other platforms.

The 352A59 provides results during vibration testing of small structures, primarily because of its 0.03 oz (0.9 gram) mass and sensitivity of 10 mV/g (1.0 mV/m/s2) over a frequency range from 1 to 10 kHz (+/-5%).

These enhancements to the Claroty Platform are intended to fill gaps in the industrial cybersecurity market, where industrial enterprises and critical infrastructure providers have been impacted by cyberattacks targeting OT networks and broad-based attacks which “spillover” from IT networks into the operational environment.

The CFW300 features a contactor-style electrical connections (top in / bottom out). The VFD's performance can be scaled to match the application by selecting WEG vector control (VVW) or scalar control (V/Hz).

The IRB 910INV is designed for applications including picking and placing, assembly and testing, electronics small parts assembly tasks such as screw driving, inserting or mounting components, and automated inspections for quality control.

The ELM314x measurement modules are available in two, four, six and eight-channel versions. Measurements with an accuracy of 100 ppm are possible over a temperature range from 10 to 40 °C.

The competition will involve using SimCentral, AVEVA’s industrial simulation platform, to solve a problem created by the company in collaboration with Dr. Richard Turton, renowned author and industry expert in the field of chemical process simulation.

The document is an overhaul and rewrite of RC 1.0.2 (2013) that incorporates current features and functions of MTConnect and OPC UA.

The sensor, in a functional housing design, will add to EnOcean’s Easyfit portfolio of battery-free Bluetooth switches and support the company’s strategy to provide data for the digitalization of buildings using LED lighting systems as data backbone for intelligent control.

The acquisition is intended to accelerate delivery of Emerson’s digital transformation roadmap by adding skillsets in information technology/operational technology (IT-OT) and application knowledge to help integrate data from the plant floor to business systems.

The car battery plant in Kobierzyce, near Wroclaw will be capable of supplying up to 250,000 electric cars with batteries per annum. It is also the first large-scale lithium-ion battery plant for automotive applications producing all battery components, from electrodes to cells, modules and packs.

The document is an overhaul and rewrite of RC 1.0.2 (2013) that incorporates current features and functions of MTConnect and OPC UA.

An improved PID controller based on predictive functional control is developed and tested on the chamber pressure in an industrial coke furnace.

Lydon brings more than 10 years of writing and editing expertise to Automation.com, plus more than 25 years of experience designing and applying technology in the automation and controls industry. Lydon started his career as a designer of computer-based machine tool controls; in other positions, he applied programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and process control technology. In addition to working at various large companies (e.g., Sundstrand, Johnson Controls, and Wago), Lydon served a two-year stint as part of a five-person task group, where he designed controls, automation systems, and software for chiller and boiler plant optimization. He was also a product manager for a multimillion-dollar controls and automation product line and president of an industrial control software company.

This 241 page report has a comprehensive Executive Summary and Conclusions for those with limited time. 10 primary conclusions are presented then infograms with data.

As a complement to HANNOVER MESSE USA in the odd-years, Digital Industry USA will take place from September 10-12, 2019 at the completely renovated Kentucky International Convention Center in Louisville, KY.

The sensors are available in an M12, M18, or M30 design. Flush installation provided, the nominal switching distances are 2 mm, 5 mm, and 10 mm, depending on the design.
