In the display world, brilliant colors and fast image changes are often in the spotlight. But for many industrial, medical, or smart applications, other values matter: low power consumption, good readability in sunlight, and high design flexibility. This is exactly where e-paper displays excel – especially as custom-tailored complete solutions developed by DMB Technics.

Kontron’s new KBox B-301-RPL is a robust high-end IPC based on a µATX motherboard designed and manufactured in Germany with 14th Gen Intel ® Core™ processors.

Artificial intelligence is increasingly finding its way into automation technology. From image recognition and process optimization to autonomous control, AI applications place high demands on hardware. Industrial PCs in different form factors and performance classes provide a reliable foundation for implementing demanding AI projects successfully.

A reliable power supply is the foundation of every automation solution. The following technical article by RECOM addresses the question of which requirements power supplies must meet in industrial manufacturing. High demands such as increasingly compact control cabinets, rising ambient temperatures, shorter maintenance cycles and intelligent systems set narrow limits for conventional power supply units.

Turck's NIC-Q86-ETH inductive Ethernet multiprotocol coupler is opening up the possible range of application fields for contactless power and data transmission. The coupler transmits up to 50 W of power as well as 100 Mbit/s full duplex latency-free (less than 1 µs) data in all Ethernet protocols.

In today’s automation environments, cabling complexity is growing rapidly – increasing the risk of errors and lack of clarity. CONEC IO system junction boxes offer a structured solution for managing input and output signals, reducing installation time and improving cabinet organization.

For the power supply of trains, special current collectors – so-called pantographs – are used. These components must be regularly inspected for wear and other irregularities. Data acquisition and processing are handled by Cincoze’s DX-1100 series box PCs.

Hamamatsu Photonics introduces the new G1682x series of InGaAs image sensors for near-infrared applications. This front-illuminated range of sensors offers high sensitivity and an uncooled design, enabling rapid and accurate real-time analysis across a diverse range of applications for R and D, industrial, and original equipment manufacturer use..

The new Nuvo-11531 series from Neousys Technology is now available from BRESSNER Technology. Featuring the latest Intel® Core™ Ultra 200 processors, the series combines high computing performance, integrated AI acceleration, and an ultra-compact fanless design – making it ideal for Edge AI, machine vision, robotics, and smart automation applications.

Dynetics, the specialist in mechatronics, summarizes both the latest innovations and proven components it offers in the field of linear motors. As is well known, direct-drive linear motors produce a linear, that is, straight-line (translational) motion. Due to their high performance, flexibility, and efficiency—in terms of thrust, speed, acceleration, and positioning accuracy—linear motors are suitable for a wide range of applications. They enable rapid movements in confined spaces and are particularly well-suited for complex motion sequences.

Whether in industrial, agricultural, or railway technology – CONEC circular connectors with bayonet quick locking ensure secure connections without the need for tools. Depending on the product group, the three-point bayonet locking meets protection ratings IP65, IP67, and IP69K and is shock and vibration resistant. Field-attachable versions, print sockets, sockets with wire termination and overmoulded connectors in various coding options are available.

Industrial Transformation ASIA-PACIFIC (ITAP) 2025 returns to Singapore EXPO from 15 to 17 October as the region’s most influential platform for advanced manufacturing. As the Asia-Pacific edition of Hannover Messe, ITAP convenes over 280 exhibiting brands from 21+ countries, alongside 100+ sessions with policymakers, global experts, and industry leaders.

A good example of a space-saving axial fan is the D1225R series from Dynetics, which is available in versions for 12 V or 24 V DC voltage. This axial fan with ball bearings is characterised by an optimised impeller design and a 3-phase BLDC motor with integrated rubber damping and a new driver IC.

Dynetics has EC axial fans (EC = Electronically Commuted or Electronically Controlled) in its portfolio because they replace conventional AC fans, which are based on shaded-pole motors with very low efficiency. EC motors have a very high efficiency and maintain this even at low speeds. In most cases, they consume less than a third to a half of the power required by conventional shaded-pole induction motors, resulting in lower operating costs and shorter amortisation times.

Robots are being used successfully in more and more industries, including construction. The Cartesius urban district is currently under construction in Utrecht, Netherlands. As part of the project, around 3,000 new apartments will be built by 2030. By using two fischer BauBot construction robots, approximately 4,800 holes were automatically drilled into the ceiling of a residential building under construction.

CONEC M8x1 connectors with 2 or 3 integrated LEDs are ideally suited for sensor/actuator cabling in factory automation, mechanical and plant engineering, conveyor and packaging technology, as well as in testing and inspection systems.

The world of industrial automation is facing profound challenges. A fully connected production environment is now widely recognized as key to maintaining competitiveness. However, increased connectivity also brings greater exposure to cyber threats. Learn how MB connect line solutions can help defending operational infrastructure (OT) against cyber threats.

The demand for modular, scalable and highly available conveyor systems is growing in intralogistics. Turck is responding to this trend with a consistent IP67 concept for the digitalization of conveyor technology – from the controller to the power supply to the safety technology, all directly in the field and without a control cabinet.

The 200 W i1C series from TDK-Lambda is available in the industry-standard housing format (1 x 1 inch = 26.42 x 26.42 mm). The non-isolated buck-boost DC-DC converters (upconverters and downconverters) operate with input voltages ranging from 9 to 36 V or 18 to 75 V. The i1C series offers adjustable output voltages from 9.6 to 28 V with output currents of up to 10 A.
