Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are an interim product. PHEV cars are particularly valuable to traditional automotive companies buying time as they figure out how to make desirable battery-electric cars the end game. Manufacturers continue to launch many PHEVs but these are more complicated than alternatives, and large recalls are occurring.

Palomar Technologies and the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Systems and Device Technology IISB, have announced their joint research initiative in the area of high-quality, void-free power module packaging for electric vehicles.

A new cleanroom laboratory, built by applied research organisation, Franhofer IPA, has opened - helpingigusramp up its motion plastics development.igus, whose UK headquarters are in Northampton, are motion plastic experts and a global manufacturer ofenergy chainsystems and polymerplain bearings.

Embedded technologies are indispensable for dealing with socio-political challenges such as climate protection, demographic development or increasing resource efficiency. In key branches of industry they also form the basis for most of the innovations.

Covid-19 has put a stop to many events this year, but PCIM Europe continues in a virtual form, with the conference and exhibition accessible via a virtual platform over two days (Tuesday 7th and Wednesday 8th July). Here is a guide to what is available from exhibitors and conference speakers.

Full Spectrum LED products outperform conventional solutions, according to a study into the visual impact and perceptual performance of LED lighting by the Fraunhofer Institute for Building Physics (IBP) in Stuttgart.

I have always been interested and somewhat fascinated by machines, especially the ones that are used to build other machines. I have good memories of my visits to an enormous foundry or a ship factory. This dates back 30 years when I was working in a machine shop as a high school senior. I loved the industrial saws used to cut 2” thick sheets of mica or the G-code programmed CNCs. Enough of this and back to the topic of the Fourth Industria...

The PCIM Europe advisory board, led by Professor Dr. Leo Lorenz, ECPE, Germany, has selected this year’s winning entries from over 370 papers submitted. The Young Engineer Awards have been granted to exceptional contributions by young professionals. The Best Paper Award was presented to the best paper overall. For the first time, these presentations can be experienced free of charge during the virtual format of the PCIM Europe.

KI-PREDICT, a project funded by the BMBF, aims to use artificial intelligence (AI) at various levels of the manufacturing process to enable condition-based, predictive maintenance for factory equipment and to monitor product quality on the fly during production.
