Brainboxes has added 4 and 8 port options to its Ethernet to Serial port device range. As with all our Ethernet to Serial port devices these new products are designed to provide easy, fast and reliable connections between networked computers and devices with serial ports- be it across the desk or across the world.

AdaCore today announced that Airbus Military has successfully certified the Airbus Military Aerial Refueling Boom System (ARBS) on the A330 Multi Role Tanker Transport (MRTT).

Imec and Holst Centre have developed very sensitive integrated sensing elements for gas detection. The polymer-coated microbridges in high-density arrays can detect ppm-level concentrations of vapors using on-chip integrated read-out techniques. The demonstrated technology is very suitable for miniaturization of electronic nose devices thanks to the low power consumption (

Festo has launched an intelligent multi-axis control module for electric drives. The new CPX-CMXX module is a highly integrated plug-in unit designed for use with Festo’s renowned CPX series of multifunctional control terminals. The module is particularly easy to configure and set up using Festo’s FCT software tool, and helps dispense with the need for a considerable amount of system wiring, making it a very elegant drop-in control solution f...

Festo is supporting the PPMA show by demonstrating how automation technology of the future can employ principles adapted from nature. As the innovation leader in pneumatic and electric drive technology, Festo sponsors a Bionic Learning Network of leading academics, research institutes and partner companies to explore, understand and find applications for lessons from nature. Applications developed from this knowledge network include new adaptive ...

Vehicle testing and benchmarking is often limited by the use of human test drivers. Some tests require high precision and repeatability over a series of tests which is often difficult to achieve even for experienced test drivers. In order to achieve more repeatable, reliable and precise test results, integrated robot drivers can be used. SEA Ltd. has designed and manufactured an Automated Test Driver (ATD) which incorporates their steering, brak...

Burkert’s new ELEMENT system provides a complete systems approach, linking clean line valves, sensors, positioners and valve actuators in a simple architecture to solve total control loop processes. With unlimited modularity, ELEMENT saves processing time by offering total control solutions for media from slurries to steam, and from de-ionized water to hydrochloric acid.

At the WiMAX World Conference, Analog Devices is demonstrating the first two devices in a family of RF transceivers for WiMAX certified terminals that will help lower the cost and drive the wide-scale deployment of broadband wireless access. Based on the 802.16 standard, WiMAX terminals provide wireless broadband connectivity and are low cost alternatives to wired solutions such as DSL and cable modems.

Analog Devices is expanding its iSensor intelligent sensor product family with a new six-degrees-of-freedom (6 DoF) inertial sensor. The ADIS16365 IMU (inertial measurement unit) combines high-performance, simplicity, and an improved data interface that delivers faster response times and lowers power consumption relative to other IMUs in its class. The ADIS16365 makes complex motion sensing design significantly easier and more cost-effective for ...

Analog Devices, Inc is helping industrial equipment designers improve system performance and maintenance costs through vibration detection/isolation/correction. With today’s announcement of the new ADIS16227 iSensor vibration monitor, equipment designers have a fully integrated vibration analysis solution capable of autonomous operation. This enables the earliest detection, identification, and isolation of possible vibration sources from eq...
