Are we over-complicating a simple idea?
With an increasing modularity in PLC components, it means that principle life has been getting easier for systems integrators of late, with the ability to implement complete automation systems on a single backplane.However, with a host of new PLC modules making it feasible to implement full control of a complete production line without ever leaving the PLC rack, are we at risk of over-complicating a simple idea?

Magnetic sensing in clothes dryers
Clothes dryers have had a history of being energy inefficient ranked only behind the refrigerators and freezers.
Sensing in ovens, stoves and range hood
The kitchen is said to be the most important room of a home, while cooking is the centre and focal point when using the kitchen. The design of ranges, which includes the stove and cook top have improved with better cooking features and efficiencies. Electric ranges are the most popular while gas controlled ovens are also available.
Liquid level switches support higher supply voltages
As it strengthens its widely-used Optomax portfolio of accurate, cost-effective and reliable infra-red (IR) liquid level switches, SST Sensing is now offering the Optomax Industrial series.These devices offer the same functionality and operational performance as customers have come to expect from standard Optomax switches, but with the added advantage of greater overall electrical robustness and flexibility.
IEC 60067-19: What is it and what does it mean?
Have you ever wondered what IEC 60067-19 means, or could mean for you? Well here, Dr. Martin Killeen of the AEMT (Association of Electrical and Mechanical Trades) outlines the requirements of the international Repair, Overhaul and Reclamation of Hazardous Area Equipment standard IEC 60079-19, and highlights how it impacts on both the service provider and the end user.
Shell UK Chair to deliver keynote at All-Energy 2018
Shell UK’s Country Chair, Sinead Lynch, will be delivering a keynote address in the opening plenary session of All-Energy and the co-located Smart Urban Mobility Solutions (SUMS) on 2nd May 2018 at Glasgow’s SEC.
Boosting rescue efforts during natural disasters
Directing evacuations, reducing damage and saving lives in the aftermath of major disasters like wildfires, chemical blazes or volcanic eruptions are set to be improved thanks to a new drone that provides crucial air quality data to ground-based emergency services in real time.
Machine analytics bring OEM expertise into the digital environment
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) has increased the availability of information throughout the enterprise by orchestrating data from multiple sources and applying machine-learning applications. However, the power of new IIoT tools toimprove machine performanceis limited when those with access to information are not experts on the machine, leaving powerful machine information untapped.
Wide area network gateway for agricultural applications
A range of 4G LTE CAT1 enabled Cellio LoRa Gateways have been introduced by Device Solutions for wide area, long range, end-to-end monitoring of agriculture, cold chain, gas distribution and transportation. The Cellio solution encompasses the hardware, software, wireless connectivity, cloud storage, and monitoring apps for smartphones.
NASA to hold satellite servicing tech transfer industry day
We have lived in a generation of 'one and done' spacecraft, up until now.Barring a few notable exceptions, spacecraft launch alone, operate alone and are decommissioned alone. In an average year, several billion dollars’ worth of satellitesthat could be refueled or repairedare retired because there is no way to service them in space.
