Rockwell Automation announces the advancement of the FactoryTalk Optix portfolio through DataReady smart machines. This update to the FactoryTalk Optix portfolio enables contextualised machine data that's ready to deliver operational value.

Miniaturisation is an important aspect of industrial transformation. It ensures efficient and sustainable processes, because 'smaller' solutions save space and energy. Pilz supports this aspect with safe sensor technology solutions: The new PSENmgate safety gate system combines the classic safety locking device PSENmlock and the control element PITgatebox in a compact solution.

The popularity of height-adjustable desks for ergonomic working is growing fast. Cable routing inside the desk is essential to avoid cable clutter, snag and tripping hazards. Now igus has the perfect solution: the OfficeChain OCO.32.37.0.

The AGV5D from Aerotech is a 5-axis laser precession scanner specially developed for laser micromachining. The combination of scanner and 5-axis laser motion system makes it possible to create high-precision bores, contoured slots and other complex geometries with dimensional tolerances in the sub-micrometre range.

FDB Panel Fittings introduces a Surface-Mount Slam Latch Set made by Weston Body Hardware. It offers a fluorescent 'mushroom' inside safety release which is widely required for large-size insulated enclosures, such as cold stores or containerised units, where a surface-mounted latch is preferable to avoid breaching the integrity of the door.

Baumer continues to develop its range of smart sensors including options that withstand harsh outdoor conditions and are resilient to chemicals, dust, extreme temperatures and wet environments. The latest addition to the Baumer range is the UF401V.
