Micro-Epsilon: The new optoNCDT ILR1041-150 laser distance sensor enables reliable distance measurements of up to 150 m. Thanks to the time-of-flight measuring principle, integrated IO-Link communication, and robust design, the sensor is ideal for...

Heimann Sensor: In cooperation with our sales partner Boston Electronics, Heimann Sensor CEO Dr. Jörg Schieferdecker will be exhibiting at the SPIE Defense + Security exhibition 28-20 April, 2026. The exhibition takes place at the Gaylord...

MEGATRON’s shaftless magnetic angle sensors are cost-efficient, low-maintenance and free from mechanical wear. Even so, many users still opt for encoders with shaftsout of concern about potential integration risks. To address this, MEGATRON...

MEGATRON's new 848 series of wear-free Hall effect fingertip joysticks feature a flat and an extremely robust design. These input devices are ideal for use in control consoles, driver's cabs and applications with high mechanical requirements.

SONOTEC: With the SONOFLOW CO.55 SD V3.0 flow meter, SONOTEC presents precision, process control, and uniqueness at the premiere of the Single-Use Event Basel on March 19, 2026, in Basel, Switzerland. Just one week later, bioprocess engineers will...

Micro-Epsilon: The optoNCDT laser sensor portfolio provides precise displacement and distance measurements in industrial automation processes. The sensors measure any surface without contact and with high accuracy – in factory automation,...

POSIC launches the miniature rotary absolute encoder kit AP9600C, which provides the absolute position in SSI format with a 22-bit resolution and a maximum speed up to 20’000 RPM. The highly miniaturized encoder measures only 20 x 20 x 3.5...

Micro-Epsilon: In the production of metal wheels using the so-called flow forming process, thickness values must be detected reliably and precisely after each forming step. The manufacturer uses optoNCDT laser sensors for this task. They are...

Micro-Epsilon: Fiber optic sensors such as the optoCONTROL CLS1000-AU-PP and the CFS4-A30 reflex sensor are used to monitor for breakage of metal belts. Thanks to their short response time, high switching frequency and large detection range, they...

MEGATRON: The highly compact design is the defining feature of MEGATRON's MBA and MKA rotary encoders. Thanks to their various configurations, these Hall effect absolute encoders are ideal for applications where space is limited. The MBA has a...

Turck: With the B25 Wide Beam Sensor from its partner Banner Engineering, TURCK offers a robust solution for the precise detection of even the smallest and most transparent objects. The wide beam sensor was developed for applications in which...

Micro-Epsilon: In modern production, process automation plays a crucial role in creating cost-efficient and high-quality products. High precision is particularly important when assembling complex and flexible components such as cable harnesses....

Micro-Epsilon: The optoNCDT ILR1040 laser distance sensor measures large distances up to 10 m, and up to 60 m with a reflector. It is used in the fields of automation, construction machinery, logistics and renewable energies. The sensor delivers...
