Omron has announced the launch of the new MicroHAWK F440-F Smart Camera. This highly configurable smart camera with a 35 frame-per-second 5-megapixel monochrome global shutter sensor brings exceptional performance to virtually any machine vision application.

Edge Computing platforms enable easy scalability, allowing you to start with a small HMI/SCADA solution (single node) and add more (multiple nodes in multiple locations) as your needs grow. The experts at Stratus Technologies explain more.

Phoenix Contact is extending its portfolio of I/O systems for control-cabinet-free automation with the new generation of Axioline E communication modules. The devices satisfy both the current and future requirements for field installation.

A new encoderless, field-oriented control method (vector control) from KEB Automation provides users (maximum torque per ampere) with control over the entire speed range. This benefits servo drives for positioning applications, for example, where high concentricity is required even at the lowest speeds.

With the PTCB eFuse circuit breakers from Phoenix Contact, nominal currents below 1 A are now also electronically protected. Features such as status message and local and remote reset options provide benefits that were previously only available when protecting larger nominal currents.

IO-Link Safety technology enables safe and consistent data transmission from the control level right through to the connection of safety-related sensors and actuators in the field.

As industry’s digitalisation goals become more ambitious, and our expectations of facility data increases, how is technology for data capture and analysis changing? Stefan Reuther, member of the executive board at industrial software specialist, Copa-Data, examines the role of SCADA in Industry 4.0.
