 Sensors now smart and wireless – New generation of wireless sensors with optimised power consumption and installation flexibility

Sensors now smart and wireless – New generation of wireless sensors with optimised power consumption and installation flexibility

Cabled sensors reach their limits in many applications involving robotics, toolmaking, mould design or handling technology. Wireless sensors can provide a flexible alternative – especially when they are self-calibrating with minimum energy input. A new sensor generation shows how this technology has developed, and which application fields it is opening up.

 Non-contact is better – Machine safety in dust Ex zones

Non-contact is better – Machine safety in dust Ex zones

Safety switches used in explosive environments have to meet two different complex sets of requirements: those for explosion protection, and those for machine safety. Engineers have the choice between different designs and different active principles. At the Powtech, the steute business division Controltec will be demonstrating the various available technologies – one of which plays a particularly prominent role.

 Robot-controlled tool construction for precision casting – Production of turbine blades

Robot-controlled tool construction for precision casting – Production of turbine blades

A wireless connection to a rotating robot gripper – the industrial engineers at Doncasters Precision Castings in Bochum have now single-handedly realised this type of signal transmission. Their chosen solution deploys a wireless sensor from steute: it signalises the operational status of a gripper which removes clusters from a suspension track. Here an overview of the technology.
