Sensors determine correct positioning for the world of Industry 4.0

Sensors determine correct positioning for the world of Industry 4.0
An important part of automation today is the detection of objects in systems. Objects have to be reliably detected and measured, as well as verifying that they are correctly positioned. The scope of possible applications is almost limitless and is continuously expanding (for example, detecting valve and flap positions, the position of PV panels for optimal exposure to light, the position of a ship's rudder and automation tasks in the machine-tool industry).

Digital transformation topic area launched at SENSOR+TEST 2018

Digital transformation topic area launched at SENSOR+TEST 2018
  Sensor, measuring, and testing systems play a key role in digitising and networking vehicles, machines, and systems - even of entire factories and indeed the industry as a whole. They convert the actual status of the analogue world into the digital data world of Industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things. And their intelligence and communication capability is continuously growing.

Industry 4.0 needs fresh new thinking

Industry 4.0 needs fresh new thinking
Digitisation and the IoT continue to change our everyday life. Many products no longer merely consist of hardware that carries out the majority of the functions. The huge importance of the software and intelligent programming, as well as links to other devices or objects, have gained in importance. Companies like Google, Apple and Amazon have long since left the earlier giants such as Kodak, Nokia and Sony in their wake.
