igus is launching its TH3 series hygienic design energy chain that has been developed for machines used in the food and beverage processing and packaging industries. An open design, which received a Red Dot Award (Product Design 2017), makes it very easy to clean, while rounded corners and simple, threadless connections avoid dead spaces where debris and germs could build-up. The structure of the e-chain has no surfaces lying on top of each other, which prevents plastic-on plastic-abrasion and material shedding; instead, the flexibility comes from bending of plastic beams without exceeding their elastic limit.

RS Components has introduced a new evaluation kit from Sensitec for the development of linear and angular measurement-based motion-control systems.

The Molex Brad Ultra-Lock system is designed to bring the ease of a push-pull connector to IP67/IP68/IP69K-rated sealed connections in industrial environments. The M12-compatible Brad Ultra-Lock technology provides a seal that surpasses the performance and reliability of traditional threaded connectors.
