The modern automation system is like a well-trained "army", and each "department" can perform its own duties to ensure the precise operation of the system and successfully complete the "campaign" of production operations. However, as the diversity of physical interfaces in automation systems increases, different "departments" adopt different ...

Recently, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and the National Energy Administration jointly issued the "Made in China 2025 - Energy Equipment Implementation Plan", which is intended to promote independent innovation, optimization and upgrading of the equipment manufacturing industry, and lead the construction of a manufacturing power with the development of energy equipment. Nowadays, more and more ...

A sense of security is built by trust, and trust is built by transparency. At a time when promoting green health, the safety of food and drugs has become the focus of people's attention, and the non-disclosure or non-transparency of the manufacturing process will make us more suspicious of our already worried. If the production of ...

The pandemic that began in early 2020 pressed the fast-forward button for digital reinvention. For many businesses, digital reinvention is no longer an option, but an inevitability. How to correlate data at the production, IT and even management levels is the basis for optimizing the value creation process in the automotive production industry.

When it comes to position detection of machine tools, you usually think of using a grating scale to control the CNC spindle. This type of sensor principle is the most commonly used in modern machine tools and can even achieve sub-micron resolution. However, there are many other applications in metalworking that do not necessarily require such high-end and ...

In the press shop, the production of body panels, such as valves, hoods, roofs, engine molds and other components, requires high-precision stamping and metal positioning in order to protect expensive dies and stamping units and to keep the individual components intact. Assembling engine moulds ...

The continuous rain a while ago made people feel dreary, and they didn't see the sun for a long time, which made water a target and annoyance. However, water can overturn a boat, and it can also carry a boat. Hydropower stations can not only regulate the amount of water and play a role in flood control, but also make full use of the endless water resources for power generation. BTL ...

It is necessary not only to have gold and silver, but also to green waters and green mountains. In recent years, environmental protection has become the focus of the country and even the world. Clean energy, with its unique environmental protection advantages, has come to the foreground and has become an important driving force to promote the progress of human civilization. In particular, wind energy, since the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan", has gone through more than ten years ...

With the unlimited number of reads and writes and the real-time exchange of information, RFID has become indispensable. Tool management with tool recognition: The mode of automatic processing of tool-specific data opens up a new level of tool management. Avoid manual input errors, RFID can be ...

With expansion function and high IP rating, it can be used flexibly. On high-utilization machines, it is important to check and evaluate all machine parameters. This is especially true in metalworking. Modern milling or turning centers have a hydraulic circuit for changing tools and workpieces. ...

Today's automobile manufacturing "rivers and lakes" can be described as changeable, the needs of the majority of car enthusiasts are varied, and the competition between manufacturers is becoming increasingly fierce. In the past, the rigid production mode of high cost and "bulky" switching is no longer popular, and it wants to occupy a place in the fierce competition.

RFID systems from Balluff ensure battery productivity and quality in terms of hose station engagement, track and trace electrode rolls, monitoring material availability, and monitoring mixer status. It can be said that Balluff's wide range of sensors meets the high demands of a wide range of requirements and thus smoothly drives the subsequent ...

Photoelectric sensors are sensors that use optoelectronic components as detection elements. It first converts the measured change into a change in the optical signal, and then further converts the optical signal into an electrical signal with the help of an optoelectronic component. Photoelectric sensors are generally composed of three parts: light source, optical path and optoelectronic components.
