As a pioneer for bus-compatible position indicators for monitored size changeover, SIKO is presenting the AP05 as the most compact version in this segment, now with an integrated IO-Link interface. As the core element of monitored size changeover, networked position indicators have become an indispensable part of mechanical engineering. Their ability to display the setpoint and actual value on the adjusting spindle to the machine operator greatly increases comfort for the setter. This (...)

Production areas are expensive, especially when they have to be air-conditioned for high-precision production applications. Therefore, production areas should primarily be used for machines. Due to the growing trend towards Industry 4.0 and automation, however, production areas are increasingly being lost for handling workpieces or tools. In order to reduce space consumption caused by automation in production, Röders is presenting the extremely narrow linear multi-machine automation (...)

Laser depaneling is constantly gaining ground on conventional technologies. LPKF now supplements the market-leading Cutting-Master series with a compact, fast automation system for even higher performance. In electronics manufacturing, quality, reliability, and speed are what counts. The recently presented automation system from LPKF sets new standards in speed. It can place PCBs into boxes or blisters and disposes of the remaining tabs. The system works in part fully autono-mously without (...)
