Sensors: Manufacturer, reports, information at INDUSTRIAL Production

Precise dosing needle measurement

Reliable complete solutions from a single source, reliable processes and precision at bdtronic in Weikersheim: The company has been developing process solutions and plant systems in the fields of dosing technology, impregnation technology, hot riveting, plasma pre-treatment and automation for around 40 years.

Operation of ultrasonic welding devices

Ultrasound separates and connects

The best processes and procedures are of little use if they are complicated to operate, the documentation is time-consuming or the connection to the automation technology is cumbersome. This also applies to ultrasonic welding and cut-off welding.

Digitalization in sensor technology

Three questions for... Philip Bellm

Philip Bellm, Managing Director of Captron Electronic, sees the challenge not only in developing new products but also in applying the newly developed technologies to existing products.

Strategic growth

Dutch subsidiary for Di-Soric

Since January 2019, the former Di-Soric sales partner Digitron has been operating as Di-Soric B.V., based in Uden, the Netherlands. The new subsidiary is intended to expand the local presence in the Benelux region.

Position switch

Reliable position detection

Schmersal supplies a further developed generation of position switches from the PS series for even more flexibility, easier handling and less stock-keeping effort.

Igus communication module

Predictive maintenance also offline

The Icom.plus module enables predictive maintenance, and the user can decide how he wants to integrate the data obtained: from an offline version to connection to the Igus server for automatic spare parts ordering.

Camera sensors

High efficiency in bin picking

Robot-guided "bin picking" increases the degree of automation and flexibility of industrial production. A major German automotive supplier has therefore opted for the Powerpick3D bin picking system from Isra Vision.

Business figures 2018

Jumo continues to grow

Jumo, based in Fulda, was also able to benefit from global growth trends in 2018. Consolidated turnover increased by 14 million euros. However, global risks are dampening expectations for 2019.

Capacitive buttons

Multi-talents for switching and operating

Modern capacitive buttons can do more than their mechanical predecessors. They are extremely robust and durable and can take on additional tasks similar to a touch panel.
