New from Emerson is the Rosemount 802 Wireless Multi-Discrete Input or Output Transmitter, which has eight discrete input/output (I/O) channels, each one configurable as an input or an output.

The 'hammer demo' for Contrinex's robust 700 Series inductive sensors is surprising and compelling. To illustrate how these sensors differ from typically brittle inductive sensors, a 700 Series M30 inductive sensor, embedded into the head of a mallet, is used to hammer two-inch nails into a block of wood. After this abuse, the sensor still works perfectly.

ifm says its new PQ series press sensor sets new standards in performance, reliability, and versatility in food and beverage manufacturing applications.

Leybold has developed and oil-free vacuum solution for sustainable beer bottling, reducing costs while ensuring a high level of hygiene.

Contrinex manufactures photoelectric sensors as small as 4mm in diameter. These fully functional, self-contained photoelectric sensors are offered in various sensing technologies. An exceptional subset of the M5 sensors is the diffuse sensors with a sapphire lens, which UK representative Plus Automation says provide unparalleled performance in a compact housing.

Maximise floor space and cost savings by combining the capabilities of Fortress Technology metal detectors and checkweighers into a robust, hygienic and fully integrated system.

Titan Enterprises' popular Pulsite Link pulse and analogue converter, a successful addition to Titan's line of liquid flow measuring instruments, is now available with the useful additional design feature of an LCD display.

With Make UK revealing that we've dropped out of the top 10 manufacturing nations for the first time (down to 12th), our position is vulnerable unless we significantly increase our level of automation. Oliver Selby, Head of Sales for FANUC UK, outlines six key design considerations for seamless automation integration.

IDS Imaging Development Systems introduces a new 3D camera in the Ensenso product line. With its compact, industrial-grade design and the combination of a very short working distance and a large field of view, the Ensenso B is particularly suitable for bin picking applications.

Across process applications, maintenance teams are in a constant battle to maintain operational productivity and minimise downtime. Although maintenance team resources are often stretched, implementing data-driven diagnostics can enhance their capabilities, as Burkert Industry Manager, Greg Wainhouse, explains.
