Intelligent Motors Equipped with Microcomputers
The idea of using built-in computers to control motors without the aid of external equipment is not a new one, but it has taken until now for computers with the level of performance necessary to control motors in real-time to become small and cheap enough for this idea to become reality.
Using Biometrics in Industrial Control Systems
The State of Industrial Cybersecurity Report 2018, from the Kaspersky Lab, found that 54 per cent of respondents who had experienced a cyber-attack on their industrial control system (ICS) noticed damage to their products or services. Industrial control systems are critical to business success, so how can we protect them better?
The ix Industrial Interface Opens New Opportunities
As miniaturization advances, devices get smaller and smaller, as do the circuit boards upon where the sockets are mounted. As a result, the connector's dimensions of 7 mm to 11 mm become comparatively large and the product designer must ensure sufficient space is allocated.
Advance the Manufacturing of Tomorrow by Investing in the Workforce of Today
If manufacturers don't find a way to develop the current workforce and arm employees with the skills needed to work in modern manufacturing plants, it's anticipated that more than two million jobs will go unfilled.
AI and Robotics Revolutionizing Brewing

The Evolution Of IoT Sensor Data (& How It Benefits You)
A sophisticated data-collection device, the sensor is a crucial-and fascinating-component of the Internet of Things (IoT). This article explores the evolution of sensor technology, the main challenges facing the industry today, and how IoT sensor data analytics can transform the way your building works.
Best Practices for Preventing Electromagnetic Interference in Robotics
If robotics developers don't understand EMI and take steps to prevent it, the resultant issues could cause robots to behave unexpectedly, such as requiring frequent restarts, showing a limited radio frequency range, moving unintentionally or affecting other nearby robots.
The Future of Manufacturing Comes to Pittsburgh in 2020
The Smart Manufacturing Experience will provide manufacturers an opportunity to engage with the most advanced smart manufacturing technologies that they can deploy quickly to boost productivity, increase sales, improve efficiency and reduce costs
Make Your Manufacturing ERP System Instantly Simple To Use
To begin with, the first thing that process manufacturers can do in this regard is to make the current ERP system more mobile. By increasing the mobile capability of the ERP, one refers to having a solid mobile application, or adding a well-functioning mobile component to the ERP system.
Ultra-Precision Motion Control - Key Considerations for Supplier Selection
As the demand for more and more exacting motion control increases across numerous industry sectors, it is vital that before investing, customers are informed enough to make sure that they select the right solution for their specific application.
6 Steps Midsized Manufacturers Can Take to Protect IIoT Environments
Midsized manufacturers, with revenues between $10 million and $1 billion, are also increasing investments in IIoT. Typically, their focus is on IIoT solutions that employ sensors on plant floor equipment, boosting productivity and efficiency, reducing downtime - and increasing exposure to cyber risks.
IoT Solutions That Are Revolutionizing The Manufacturing Industry
Business is changing, and so is the manufacturing industry. Here is just a brief assessment of five key manufacturing developments, business practices, and key considerations that have sprung up, or that are being indelibly influenced and revolutionized by the IoT.
Factories Can Save Up to 90% in Valve Monitoring Costs With Wireless IoT Sensors
The wireless sensor doesn't need any cabling. This retrofit angle sensor can be attached to several types of manual rotary valves, including ball and butterfly valves.
