The China Mobile Research Institute and Rohde & Schwarz have joined forces to research and validate joint communication and sensing (JCAS). They plan to use the latest R&S AREG800A automotive radar echo generator from Rohde & Schwarz as an object simulator in a JCAS testing solution, thereby accelerating the research and development of JCAS and readying it for industrialization.
Lockable standard parts are increasingly common in machine and plant construction, but they are also used in event hardware for locking and securing a variety of parts. Elesa+Ganter is now expanding its range of indexing elements to include the lockable stainless steel indexing plungers GN 814. The integrated closing mechanism protects against unauthorized or accidental operation.
Conta-Clip introduces the new, inverse and modular KDSI-SR cable entry system for reliable sealing, maximum flexibility and time savings feed-through for cables with and without plugs.
Gear specialist Framo Morat presents the new speeroX gear set, in which the gearing of the wheel is relocated to the flat side. This results in a reduction of the installation space. speeroX enables high gear ratios in only one gear stage and is quiet and efficient at the same time.
Highly sensitive electronic components are the drivers of our digitalized world. Micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) open up new possibilities for miniaturization in wide-ranging application areas.
Manufacturing simulation came to the fore in the 1990s. Early products offered two-dimensional animations, but as computer power grew, so did 3D simulation. Before long, it became one of the manufacturing industry's more practical and beneficial tools. But with its rise in prominence, simulation as a tool for manufacturers did come with its fair share of raised eyebrows and misconceptions.
Vans and medium-sized trucks are the beating heart of urban goods traffic. Powered electrically, they are locally emission-free, contribute to better air quality and reduce noise pollution for residents. Bosch is now starting volume production of a new drive unit for such light commercial vehicles, consisting of an electric motor and an integrated inverter.
However unassuming they appear, their range of applications is enormous: guide rollers with ball bearings achieve smooth and dynamic movements. Ganter is setting new standards with the guide roller generation GN 753.1.
Bosch Rexroth, one of the world’s leading suppliers of drive and control technologies, will expand its presence in North America: A new plant is being built in Queretaro, Mexico. Bosch Rexroth has been successfully operating in Mexico for 40 years.
Based on a development platform that centres on machine sustainability, reliability and the market's best TCO (total cost of ownership), manufacturers opting for all-electric FANUC technology can rest assured that their investment will pay dividends, both financially and environmentally. At K 2022 (19-26 October, Dusseldorf, Germany), from booth A50 in hall 14, FANUC will shine the spotlight on its credentials as a provider of sustainable production solutions for the plastics industry.
