Siemens Digital Industries Software has announced a collaboration with Compute Maritime (CML) to revolutionise ship design and simulation and push the boundaries of generative AI in the ship design industry.

Pickering Interfaces will showcase its range of industry-standard modular signal switching and simulation products for electronic test and verification - including fault insertion and sensor simulation modules for Hardware-in-the-Loop simulation, and RF and microwave switching up to 110 GHz - at Space-Comm Expo 2025.

A new thermal imaging telescope, Hibiscus, will sent into orbit at the end of 2026, with a unique unfolding design. Driven by maxon motors, this design achieves a compact footprint for rocket launch that is set to increase commercial viability across a broad range of applications.

Modernising existing infrastructure is a big challenge for utilities. One water company is currently undertaking a large upgrade of its telemetry assets, entrusting the project to its multi-disciplined engineering solutions provider. Part of the upgrade involved selecting reliable custom enclosures for critical network communications equipment. Consequently, the contractor approached leading enclosure manufacturer, Spelsberg.

In any robot, the precision of its motion control system is vital. Motion control capabilities make a robot's physical performance possible, and optimisation of size and weight is critical to fit the footprint of many robot types, as Antonio Herrera, Portescap's Global Strategic Marketing - Surgical and Industrial Robotics, explains.

Sugatsune HG-TS series torque hinges - or otherwise known as friction hinges - in stainless steel are now available from the FDB Panel Fittings Online store.

Skillbond was so impressed with its acquisition of two TRUMPF TruPrint 1000 3D printers that the company has also become an official reseller of these advanced 3D printers to the UK dental lab market.

Economic operators within the battery supply chain have just six months to comply with new EU rules warns TUV SUD.

Safety regulations play a crucial role in equipment selection in industries where explosive atmospheres are a risk. The ATEX directive, established by the European Union, ensures that components used in such environments meet strict safety standards. Elesa offers a range of ATEX-compliant solutions designed for industries like oil and gas, chemical processing, and manufacturing, where explosive risks are present.

What if the future of neurosurgery isn't just in the hands of surgeons? Soon, surgical robots may hold the power to transform the field, making it faster, safer and more precise than ever before. Here, Dave Walsha, sales and marketing director at EMS, investigates the role of advanced motor design in developing neurosurgical robots.
