igus will be showcasing a range of its new products at this years Advanced Engineering Show taking place at the NEC, Birmingham, on the 11th and 12th November. The new products being showcased on igus’ stand (K72) include: tribo-tape, tribo-filament, e-cord micro, E4.1 energy chain and the CRC clean-room chain

A range of cables, targeting cable carrier applications that do not require high cycle rates, has been introduced by igus. Marketed as a cost effective alternative, the company guarantees that the chainflex M range has a service life of one million double strokes and can be used in theatres, tools and jigs, packaging machines and some machine tools.

At the Engineering Design Show 2014, igus will be debuting products including the robolink D, tribo-tabe, tribo-filament, e-cord micro, and the CRC clean-room chain on stand D20. The Engineering Design Show is scheduled to take place at the Ricoh Arena, Coventry, between the 22nd and 23rd October 2014.

Printing sensors is one way to make them cheap enough for widespread IoT applications, and Europe is leading the way in developing this technology, Sally Ward-Foxton writes for ES Design magazine.

How Bluetooth Smart Ready devices running the revised version of Bluetooth wireless technology will provide greater flexibility. By Jack Shandle, Nordic Semiconductor.

ON Semiconductor announced a new family of six N-channel Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFETs). The NTMFS4Hxxx and NTTFS4Hxxx series of MOSFETs are ideally suited as switching devices for a wide range of applications including server and networking equipment and high power density DC-DC converters, or to support synchronous rectification in point-of-load (PoL) modules.

Software which has been designed tosimplify the development of wirelessly connected smart meters has been launched bySilicon Labs. TheWireless M-Bus software, based on the European standard EN13757-4, specifies seamless sub-GHz RF communication between various types of smart utility meters, data concentrators, mobile readout devices and heat meters (heat cost allocators).

Based on u-blox’ high-performance NEO line of GPS and LEON / LISA 2G and 3G module series, the Insure, Secure and Lite vehicle management systems from Ctrack provide 24/7 internet-based surveillance capabilities including real-time and historical positional overview, automatic alerts in the case of unauthorised vehicle movement or tampering, area alerts, SARS-compliant logbook and optional remote panic button.

Broadcom has revealed that the company's cost-optimised, low-power BCM2835 applications processoris the technology behind the Droplet Robotic Sprinkler. The world's first cloud-connected robotic sprinkler system, it leverages real-time data from more than 10,000 weather stations, millions of square miles of soil samples and comprehensive plant biological information to make intelligent decisions on when, where and how much water to deliver.

Touch sensors, from Zytronic, have been deployed ininformation terminals within the Moscow healthcare system. Supplied tosystems integrator Infomatika through Zytronic'sRussian sales partner Elatec,the Infomatika terminals are designed to allow patients to carry out various tasks themselves, such as visit registration, updating personal data or booking appointments at doctors' surgeries and hospitals.
