Applications in the automotive sector
Heatable, flexible surfaces open up interesting possibilities for the industry. New Albea has launched a heating module on the market that can not only heat parts of the vehicle body, for example, but also interior surfaces in conjunction with conductive paints.

Sensor+Test will once again take place in Nuremberg from June 25 to 27. The special theme of this year's trade fair for sensor, measuring and testing technology is sensor and measuring technology for process automation.

With 871 exhibitors from 33 countries and 27,252 visitors, the 33rd Control was a success. Digitalized and networked QA systems, especially industrial image processing, were the focus of the world's leading trade fair for quality assurance from Schall.
For the implementation of Industry 4.0 scenarios, mechanical and vehicle engineering, process technology and the consumer goods industry are dependent on suitable sensors and their networking. Many manufacturing companies are currently working flat out to implement sensor networks in production.

The accumulation of parcels can prevent damage to the goods and ensure smooth processes in the warehouse. Wiltsche infeed conveyors offer an economical solution.

With the VS8 series from its optical sensor partner Banner Engineering, Turck offers miniature sensors for precise detection in tight installation spaces or in the vicinity of moving objects.
Worker guidance and process control. Worker assistance systems offer budget-friendly solutions for the cost-efficient production of small batches up to batch size one. Ulixes relies on a fully integrated complete solution for worker assistance.
Just as electromechanical actuators and other mechanical drive components are becoming increasingly suitable for applications with high loads, their ability to withstand harsh conditions is also increasing. Extreme temperatures, high particle loads, high-pressure cleaning, vibrations and shocks, radiation and electromagnetic interference are among the threats to reliable drives today.
At the electronics school in Tettnang, students learn in a practical way, and in the iLearning Factory 4.0 a production chain is realistically mapped, which packs plastic chips in containers, for example.Murrelektronik provided hardware for the automation technology.
