IIoT systems add value within a plant, but they are also a natural fit for data gathering in the field.

A wide range of industries is showing significant supply chain issues. However, the Michigan-based manufacturer of Gemco linear position sensors, AMETEK Factory Automation, has proven they can still deliver in a timely manner.

Encoder-maker POSITAL remains committed to supplying customers with absolute encoders with bit parallel communications interfaces.

Ericsson worked in close collaboration with autonomous mobile robot manufacturer Milvus Robotics and a global manufacturer of sensors and sensor solutions for industrial applications.

To develop drive systems with sensor technology for industrial automation, Nanotec Electronic invests in Kraken Innovations.

A major Midwest utility embarks on a multi-year replacement of all their Remote Terminal Units.

Engineers looking for precision, flight-qualified sensors ready to solve mission-critical fluid measurement problems involving air, gas, liquids, pressure and temperature should read the new Capabilities Brochure from FCI Aerospace.

Growing demand for real-time data analysis across geographies and increasing adoption of IIoT technology to improve performance will push projected growth through 2026.

If you're a machine builder or user maintaining hundreds of machines, then failures are the things you dread most. You know you need Predictive Maintenance, but the cost is often prohibitive. This article discusses a retrofit approach that uses an edge device to continuously measure a machine's critical parameters and send the sensor data to the cloud.

Zyter, Inc., a leading IoT-enablement platform, announced today it has formed a strategic partnership with Juganu, an Israel-based, smart infrastructure company.

The widespread adoption of machine vision makes image sensors that can detect light outside the visible spectrum increasingly useful, since the aim is to augment human sight rather than duplicate it.

At PackExpo this year in booth #C-2160, SICK is presenting numerous demonstrations and one educational session that highlight how intelligent sensors can help you create the factory of the future that includes robotics, quality inspection and digital transformation.

Wiliot is showcasing its revolutionary platform and IoT Pixel technology that brings actionable intelligence to reusable packaging in support of more sustainable, transparent supply chains.

ADAS and robotic vehicles will drive the LiDAR market from US$1.8 billion in 2020 to US$5.7 billion in 2026.

Barrier-busting AS1 introduces industry first cross platform 3D laser scanner for portable measuring arms and laser trackers.

There is a huge base of installed machines in the world, typically referred to as “brownfield." This represents a tremendous opportunity for a predictive maintenance solution that can be “bolted-on” existing equipment to provide condition-based monitoring. For this solution to succeed, it must include: support for many machines in a single eco-system; simple, quick and remote commissioning; flexible choice of attached sensor devices; and built-in security.

The international FRABA Group has announced the creation of two new business units: UBITO and CREDEMUS.

Strong numbers and momentum point to a positive new year.

High-Speed Cyton CXP-4 transmits data of 13 subsurface images at various depths captured at 720 frames per second and 2116 DPI with no latency.

There has been an increased focus on creating or improving automated manufacturing lines to comply with COVID-19 social distancing recommendations, while not compromising work safety and production stability. Linear Displacement Transducers (LDTs), often referred to as linear position sensors, play an important role in today's sophisticated, automated machinery.
