New ways to interconnect the PROFI-world

Automation engineers frequently need to bridge the gap between different protocols and networks used in a plant, but they also need to enable communication between equipment within the same network family. For example, in the PROFINET and PROFIBUS-world, there are many devices and sub-systems that cannot necessarily communicate with each other. It may be necessary to connect different physical formats such as copper and fiber optics or couple/de-couple I/O data between two controlling networks. With their recently upgraded Anybus X-gateways, HMS Industrial Networks can offer ways to get heterogeneous PROFI-equipment connected.

Realizing the Internet of Things

Oxford school has online control of heating, ventilation, water, lighting etc. At the EF International Language Centre in Oxford, system integrator Global Electrical Solutions Ltd. has installed a building management system to keep track of heating, ventilation, water, lighting etc. By connecting Netbiter Remote Management gateways to Rockwell control panels in the building, users can see current temperatures, levels, and consumption online. They can even turn on lights or open windows remotely – truly realizing the Internet of Things.

THK

Joint exhibition at CES 2019 - The ARGUS BOARD, our uniquely developed microcomputer board and its product prototype.

THK CO., LTD. (Headquarters: 2-12-10 Shibaura, Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Akihiro Teramachi) will be exhibitingproduct prototypes at CES, the world’s largest consumer electronics trade show, to be held on January 8–11, 2019, in Las Vegas, Nevada (USA). During this exhibition, we will present our own uniquely developed microcomputer for IoT and industrial applications: the ARGUS BOARD series. ARGUS BALANCE, a sensing chair detecting breathing and other body information; ATMOS II, a human shaped sensing object detecting our surrounding environment; and SENSING SCAPE STUDIO, where we transform environmental information into media art, are some examples of how our sensing design aims to "Transform Your Life" and enrich how we live.

Optimised information flows increase productivity Syngineer brings worlds together

Engineering disciplines must grow together in the Industry 4.0 era. But how can current departmental boundaries be overcome? Syngineer ensures that designers from electrical and mechanical engineer-ing “talk to one another”. The cloud-based tool facilitates better communication while simultaneous-ly optimising interdisciplinary cooperation for developing machines and systems.

INTERROLL

Interroll presents a new infeed for crossbelt sorters

Sant’Antonino, Switzerland, November 19, 2018. With the addition of a new infeed, Interroll is expanding its modular platform solutions for particularly efficient material flow. It is perfectly designed to work with Interroll crossbelt sorters. The new infeed modules combine higher infeed speeds with reduced space requirements to offer a substantial potential increase in goods flow in automatic sorting systems.
