Central control of all the devices of a production system with Device Type Managers (DTM)
You do not need to be an expert to be able to install a printer for a PC without difficulty. Usually all that is required is to have the relevant driver installed to prepare the data for the print job, and then you can start...
Plug and play in production monitoring: Intelligent sensors ensure rapid setup times and drastic cost savings
The "Transducer Electronic Datasheet" (TEDS), which has proved itself consistently in test bench technology, offers interesting options for minimizing setup times, particularly in the manufacturing environment.
Strain gages or piezoelectric sensors? A comparison
Different principles of measurement are involved in measuring mechanical quantities such as force, strain, pressure and torque. But the most common technologies for this application in the industrial environment are
the...
Force strain and pressure transducers based on foil type strain gauges as well as the piezoelectric principle for the use in industrial applications
Sensorics in industrial processes more and more require both fast date processing and at the same time very accurate measurement. This is because manufacturers expect consistently reliable quality control in their production. HBM...
Can haptics be measured?
Actively sensing the size, contours, surface texture, weight, etc. of an object by using all skin senses and depth sensitivity is referred to as haptic perception. The sum of a person’s haptic perceptions makes it possible for...
