The sensor market has not reached its full potential yet, and according to a report by the market research firm BCC Research, the market is still expected to grow by more than ten percent by 2020. Leslie Neill, Senior Product Manager, Honeywell Safety and Productivity Solutions, investigates.

A range of Honeywell's patented IHM (Integrated Health Monitoring) series aerospace proximity sensors for harsh duty aircraft applications are now available in Europe through TTI. The IHM series are non-contact devices designed to sense the presence or absence of a target, providing on/off output, plus they can also be configured with an optional health monitoring output to the host system.

In today’s business climate, it’s a real battle to get energy saving projects funded by senior executives. Budgets are tight and resources for projects are limited. So if you want the attention of decision makers, you’d better have a good story with solid economics coupled to a solid strategy. In this article, we bundle know-how gathered from dozens of energy managers who have used Honeywell’s EnactoTM energy intelligence ...

A series of board mount pressure sensors have been released by Honeywell, they have been designed to measure low airflow with high accuracy that is suitable for use in medical devices; heating, air conditioning and ventilation (HVAC) systems; and drones.

Honeywell released new models of its MP Series durable compact industrial label printers. The MP Series printers are among the smallest industrial label printers on the market, featuring all-metal casing for improved durability. The MP Series printers can be used in almost any orientation and can be easily mounted on walls, manufacturing lines or fork trucks, making them ideal for industrial work environments where space is an issue.
