In this technical article, TDK-Lambda explains why engineers demand not only high performance and functionality but also intuitive usability from modern power supplies, and which features the Virtual Control Panel (VCP) of the GENESYS™ AC and GENESYS™ AC PRO programmable AC power sources already offers today.

Cordaware has developed new approaches to zero-trust access and real-time communication. bestzero® takes an application-based approach to remote access. Instead of establishing a full connection to the corporate network, only the applications for which a user is authorized are made available. The solution is based on the principle of Zero Trust Application Access. With bestinformed® for real-time communication, Cordaware addresses another area of IT security: communication with users in the event of malfunctions, security incidents, or other time-critical situations.

As a specialist in connectors, interconnect cables, and custom housing technology and I/O systems, CONEC offers high-performance connection solutions – for factory automation, machine building, Industry 4.0, material handling, and electronics. Do you have a specific requirement? Together, we’ll find the right solution.

Robots can help perform parallel processes and also offer high accuracy as well as reliability in fatiguing or repetitive work. Properties that are especially valuable for medical technology. FAULHABER's drive technology offers key solution components for robotics.

New industrial workstations with AMD Ryzen Threadripper deliver high computing performance, extensive PCIe expansion capabilities, and a flexible platform for image processing, AI, engineering, and data analysis. When industrial applications require high computing performance combined with extensive expansion capabilities, Spectra’s WS 6000 series provide a powerful platform for demanding tasks.

The new RECOM Power RACPRO1 series of industrial single- and three-phase AC/DC power supplies for DIN rails stands out for its high efficiency, tool-free wiring, and durability – ideal for harsh industrial environments, outdoor applications, and the renewable energy sector. With single-phase models up to 480 W and three-phase models up to 960 W, RACPRO1 covers a wide range of output power. In addition to these products, RECOM offers four-channel, adjustable e-fuses in DIN rail format with a current rating of up to 10 A per channel, as well as diode redundancy modules.

Power supply failures in automation systems can be reliably isolated. In this technical article from RECOM Power, you’ll learn how active redundancy modules block reverse currents and enable n+1 architectures, parallel operation, and alternative power paths in industrial 24 V and 48 V systems.

CONEC has developed a highly integrated M12 Push-Pull system that gives equipment designers greater freedom when space is at a premium. Imagine the challenge facing a design engineer: 16 interfaces must fit into a space where even eight used to be difficult. At the same time, machine assembly needs to be faster, connections must remain reliable in confined installation environments, and maintenance personnel should be able to work quickly without tools or lengthy troubleshooting.

The rapid design solutions using TDK-Lambda’s buck and buck-boost DC-DC converters enable a stable power supply, which is essential especially for mobile and stationary robotic components. They offer excellent load regulation, high efficiency, and a compact design in open-frame, baseplate, heatsink and ruggedized case options. The wide input range enables seamless operation with various battery voltages. Thanks to the wide output voltage adjustment range, a single converter can easily be used for different system voltages. Identical pinout across a power range from 100 W to 1500 W allows for scalable power designs. Their low weight permits a greater payload for the intended application.

The rugged Cincoze DV-1000 embedded computer supports real-time processing, communication, and positioning in maritime defense and security applications.

genua delivers another building block for greater digital sovereignty: The German IT security provider, a company of the Bundesdruckerei Group, has ported its highly secure VPN client genuconnect to Apple’s macOS operating system. Like the already-certified Windows version, genuconnect for macOS offers a very high level of protection.

As a system integrator and value-added distributor, BRESSNER Technology has built up an extensive product and service portfolio in the field of industrial hardware solutions over the past 30 years. We supply state-of-the-art hardware solutions for almost every area of application. For example, AI Solutions, Rugged Computing, Industrial PCs, HPC Solutions, Industrial IoT, Display Solutions, and Medical Hardware.

As technical devices become increasingly miniaturized, the demand is growing for efficient, high-quality fans with high static pressure and compact, ultra-quiet multi-blade blowers. The new D1225R series (distribution: Dynetics) of cost-effective, ball-bearing-mounted axial fans is available in versions for 12 or 24 V DC. They feature a unique design with optimized impeller shapes and a 3-phase BLDC motor with integrated rubber damping and a new driver IC.

Dynetics offers a wide range of small motors and associated electronics. We support engineers throughout Europe in selecting the motor with the optimal price-performance ratio for their mechatronic assignment. Many of our motors can be “customized” to your specifications.

Radial fans or blowers by Dynetics are often used to direct airflow specifically at hotspots. They provide reliable airflow performance, take up little space, and thus enable a compact system design.

An industrial PC is, first and foremost, a computer. In modern machines and systems, however, it is much more than that: It processes data, visualizes processes, communicates with other systems, and provides the technical foundation for applications such as edge computing, machine vision, IIoT, and artificial intelligence. For Spectra, the industrial PC is therefore the heart of modern automation. After all, high-performance automation requires more than just a powerful computer. What is crucial is a system solution tailored to the specific application, comprising computing, communication, and automation technology. The requirements for an industrial PC could hardly be more diverse. Robotics, process visualization, image processing, and test and inspection stations each demand different characteristics.

IoT and artificial intelligence offer enormous potential but also increase the complexity of technical systems. Rosenberger addresses these challenges with a structured Smart Engineering approach, in which all system components are designed as an integrated system from the outset. The TINO® platform for autonomous IoT asset tracking is one example of this approach. Designed to meet the specific requirements of logistics, industry, and construction, the solution offers long battery life, minimal maintenance, and flexible system integration.

In this technical article, Cincoze explains why IPCs should have an extended temperature range. Industrial computers must operate reliably in environments where conventional computer systems reach their limits. In outdoor control cabinets, vehicles, cold storage facilities, steel mills, or ship engine rooms, they may be exposed to significant temperature fluctuations.
