Customers in Europe can pre-order the 6½-digit Keithley DMM6500 for immediate shipment on 16 April 2018. The DMM6500 is a modern Bench/System digital multimeter (DMM) ideally suited for design engineers and production test engineers, delivering more measurement functionality and a price that will not break the budget.

  A high performance SWIR camera with very special abilities has been introduced by FLIR Systems, the FLIR A6262sc. Using a proprietary VisGaAs detector, that provides extended spectral coverage down into the visible range, enables the FLIR A6262sc to make measurements through glass.

The SecuriTEST IP from IDEAL Networks enables technicians to install, test, troubleshoot and document IP/digital, HD coax and analogue CCTV camera systems with a single tester. As IP/digital CCTV security systems become more common, technicians typically need to take a myriad of different testing equipment to each installation or maintenance job.

Scienscope International has announced that Milwaukee Electronics purchased two X-SPECTION 6000 systems – one for their facility in Oregon and one for their facility in Mexico. With manufacturing facilities in Wisconsin, Oregon and Mexico, Milwaukee Electronics offers both U.S. regional support options and a migration path to a low-cost manufacturing solution for mature products.

It’s widely understood that improving the efficiency of equipment and processes will make a business more competitive and reduce operational costs. However, this is easier said than done, as identifying the areas that need improving can be challenging - especially in sugar plants, where many managers have grown accustomed to high energy usage and carbon emission levels. Robert Glass, ABB’s Global Food and Beverage Communications Manager, explains how to reduce sugar plant carbon emissions.

A certification under NSF/ANSI 169 as equipment for food products has been achieved by Titan Enterprises for its 800 Series turbine flowmeters and Beverage meter. This accreditation is especially important for manufacturers of food production and handling machinery who can now include an 800 Series or Beverage meter secure in the knowledge that it has met NSF-standards for food production.

The testing of performance on high voltage motors and generators is usually carried out to determine benchmark data following a major repair. However, increasingly, customers are requiring this information as part of a problem diagnosis or to verify performance figures for a component when its essential data has been lost.

UK-designed and manufactured Earth Testing Cable Reels have been introduced by Cliff Electronics. These long-life, high-reliability cable test reels are intended for professional R2 and earth bond continuity testing and are compatible with a very wide variety of test meter brands.

When it comes to the industrial applications that require a high degree of positioning precision, norelem has bolstered its offering of positioning solutions with the addition of several new measuring and display devices. Designed specifically to gauge both the position and angle, the devices help to provide the required level of accuracy in a plethora of mechanical engineering and sawing applications and play a vital role in the production of high precision components.

The ADC‑10 was Pico Technology’s first data logger product. It was launched in 1991 with a simple scope and logging software package for MS-DOS, so that users could achieve the three fundamental purposes of logging software: set up the logger, view the graphed data and save the capture to disk. These packages later became known as the PicoScope and PicoLog software.
