Phoenix Contact is extending its range of device connectors for the transmission of data, signals, and power. The new M8 and M12 versionsare suitable for direct integration into SMT soldering processes.

Epson announces the launch of its new CX-A series, a high-performance range of 6-axis industrial robots designed to deliver higher precision, faster cycle times and increased reliability across a wide range of manufacturing and logistics applications.

Digi International has announced the launch of Digi IX25, a next-generation industrial cellular router platform designed to deliver secure, scalable connectivity for critical networking infrastructure.

With a new offer, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS provides more freedom in system design: A modular system comprising decentralised drive electronics and efficient motors offers full consistency.

Greg Wainhouse, Regional Business Development Manager - Industrial Water, at Burkert, looks at the role of chlorine sensors in food processing and manufacturing applications.

As high-speed packaging lines and robotic systems continue to increase in speed, precision and autonomy, weighing is evolving - from a simple control point into a core element of modern automation architectures, delivering actionable real-time process data. The new PW22i IO-Link single-point load cell from HBK provides precision, speed and intelligence - embedded at sensor level.

Precision bearing specialist Carter Manufacturing has generated a wealth of research and data relating to TiC Titanium Carbide coated bearings and their crucial benefit to the extreme demands of aerospace systems.

Are you still relying on cotter pins or traditional fasteners to secure your assemblies? While these methods have been used for generations, modern designs demand solutions that save time, reduce complexity, and secure components against axial and radial forces. Rotor Clip retaining rings (circlips, snap rings, and spiral rings) offer a more advanced approach.

Renishaw has launched its absolute multi-DoF (multiple degrees of freedom) optical encoder system, that combines one or more of the company's RXMA30 1.5D scales with its market-proven RESOLUTE absolute encoder readheads.

The instinct to over-specify drive technology is understandable, but it carries hidden costs, says Karl Walker, market development manager at Beckhoff UK. Here, Karl offers advice to machine builders on matching drive performance to real application requirements, from basic conveyor axes through to high-dynamic multi-axis systems.
