Jewell Instruments: Case Study: The FAA operates a state-of-the-art, fullscale pavement test facility dedicated solely to airport pavement research. Located at the William J. Hughes Technical Center near Atlantic City, New Jersey, the National...

Leuze electronic: Thanks to an adjustable sound cone and small dead zone, the new Leuze ultrasonic sensors of the 420B and 412B series can be used for many different applications. If you're looking to reduce the number of different sensors used in...

Baumer: Sensor expert Baumer keeps pushing the limits of what is possible, including inductive sensors. The constant goal is to create added value for customers and open up new application possibilities. One current example is the extremely flat...

Turck's MR15-Q80 is a robust radar scanner that records and outputs environmental data in three dimensions. It is the only device with these features that is available with a J1939 interface for mobile equipment in addition to IO-Link. The 60...

Baumer: The ultra-compact multiturn encoder with a mere 22 mm in height is another highlight in the Baumer product portfolio for industrial applications. New, non-contact and fully encapsulated EB360 has been particularly designed for demanding...

Turck is adding new devices with an analog output to its existing portfolio of QR20 inclinometers with IO-Link or a switching output. The new sensors are also available as single-axis devices for static (B1N) or moving applications (B1NF) as well...

Baumer: Smart 2D profile sensors are still considered an insider tip for positioning tasks. Nevertheless, often they prove an economical alternative: easy to integrate and tough in processes. A common task in automation is quick and reliable positioning of...

Micro-Epsilon: The performance of the scanCONTROL 3000 scanners has been increased: improved algorithms and components accelerate data acquisition and output to up to 10 million measuring points per second. The profile calculation and evaluation...

Micro-Epsilon: If the installation requires measurements at a large distance, long-range laser sensors from Micro-Epsilon are used. The new optoNCDT 1760-1000 measures accurately even at distances up to 2 m and, at the same time, quickly at up to...

Leuze electronic: Small housing, big operating range: Thanks to TOF technology, the new ODT3CL1-2M compact diffuse sensor from Leuze achieves an operating range of up to two meters. The 2-in-1 sensor detects the presence of objects and at the same...

Micro-Epsilon: The new optoNCDT ILR1171-125 laser distance sensor is used for distance measurements up to 270 m and particularly impresses in outdoor measurements. Thanks to the time-of-flight principle and a high measuring rate of up to 40 kHz,...

Baumer: What is the exact object position on the belt? What is its height? Is the edge even? In lots of automated processes, this information is required to ensure smoothly running production. Most common are optical, inductive or ultrasonic...

Pepperl+Fuchs: The IMU F99 inclination sensor provides stable inclination values for mobile use on construction machinery or robots. An integrated gyroscope compensates for accelerations, enabling precise inclination measurement. This makes the...

MEGATRON: It could hardly be thinner: the HSM14F Hall-effect single-turn encoder from MEGATRON has an extremely compact design, with a housing depth of just 6.2 mm. Other outstanding features are its high resolution and long bearing life. With the...
