Leine Linde develops and manufactures robust encoders, sensors, and system electronics for industrial applications. Known for their durability, performance, and reliability, these products are essential for measuring speed and position in the most demanding environments.

New from ifm is theVSE9xx diagnostic system. Designed to bring advanced vibration diagnostics directly to the field, ifm says the solution redefines how industries monitor and maintain machine health, enabling greater efficiency and minimising costly downtime.

PULS offers a wide range of efficient and reliable DC:DC converters which provide regulated DC output voltages of 12 V, 24 V or 48 V from a wide range of DC inputs.

In the production of solid-to-viscous materials such as gelatin, syrup and plastic, the mass is continuously compressed under pressure in extruders and extruded as a strand. During this process, the material must not heat up too much, otherwise it will burn, which would result in undesirable discolouration. For this reason, colour sensors from Micro-Epsilon are used to precisely measure the colour of the extruded materials, therefore maximising product quality.
