Smart sensor nodes are the “canaries in a coal mine” for the industrial IoT, sensitively monitoring industrial equipment for vibrations, electrical current and voltage changes, temperature, sound, and ...

Capable of withstanding vibration and shock in the harshest industrial environments, the PX209 cable-style and PX219 connector-style pressure transducers are available with 0 to 5 Vdc, 0 to 10 Vdc, or ...

Connectors and sensors may be physically small, but they sit at the heart of some of the biggest transformations happening in ...

Using factory automation to improve overall efficiency is a primary focus in today’s manufacturing industry. Organizations are shifting in this direction not only because it increases their bottom ...

Industries and R&D sites depend on sensors to measure, monitor and analyze vibrations. Unfortunately, the best ways to get accurate and repeatable vibration data are not clear to many engineers; they ...

MSS sensors of model type 171V62AQ from the vendor can now be AND-linked without using a special interface or connecting each sensor to a central control unit. The vendor has modified the sensors with ...

For several years now, case studies have been showing that predictive maintenance delivers the most bang for the buck for manufacturers of all sizes. This is hardly surprising given that adding a few ...

digid, a specialist in nanoscale sensing technology, has announced a full engineering and integration service.

Part 1 of this series addressed the advantages and disadvantages of various vibration sensors; Part 2 examined signal conditioning and system hardware selection and configuration. I’ll wrap up by ...

Capacitive sensing provides a robust alternative to traditional mechanical switches. However, some applications cannot accommodate the physical implementation of a printed circuit board directly under ...
