With the PSRuni multifunctional safety relay from Phoenix Contact, up to two safety functions can be monitored with just one device. The coverage of common safety functions enables flexible configuration and adaptation to individual requirements.

Stephen Hayes, managing director at automation and control specialist, Beckhoff UK, explains how flexible manufacturing systems, supported by advanced modular automation solutions, can meet the demands of personalised medicine.

MVTec Software has launched the new version of MVTec HALCON. Version 25.05 of the standard machine vision software includes numerous improvements as well as a new technology that combines deep learning algorithms with classic methods.

Servotecnica has developed two new cost-effective standard versions of its SVTM series rotary actuators in 118- and 153-mm diameter package sizes that offer nominal output torques of 33 Nm and 49 Nm respectively. Both are equipped with a 19 bits resolution BiSS-C protocol absolute encoder.

Variable speed drives (VSDs) have become a staple across industrial and agricultural sites. But while these devices are increasingly being fitted, their full capabilities are often overlooked. Here, David Strain, technical director at Technidrive, explores the world of untapped possibilities waiting within every inverter that can unlock performance, control and energy efficiency - provided they are set up correctly.
