Using flow sensors, operators can monitor compressed-air use to help identify problems early and provides data for improving energy efficiency. Compressed air is used throughout the pharmaceutical ...

Common to all types of manufacturing automation is a reliance on effective detection and measurement of real-world conditions. In the past, discrete manufacturing (production of parts and equipment) ...

A network of 74 sensors — 57 of which were ultrasonic sensors developed by the University of Augsburg (shown at top and as light blue dots in upper and low mold halves) — were used in the T-RTM ...

Recent advances in flow sensing have resulted in more accurate, durable, and economical meters. Increasingly important is the ability to interface meters with a computer for instantaneous flow readout ...

When things start getting hot, conventional flow sensors often reach their limits, for example in heat treatment applications such as high strength ceramics manufacture and cooling circuits in ...

In the injection molding of plastics, in-mold sensors, as part of a variety of process control packages, have been around for decades. But comparatively recently, similar technology has begun to make ...

Competitiveness in today’s dairy processing industry depends largely upon a combination of factors such as; the degree of automation, efficiency of production, hygienic design, effective cleaning and, ...

Note: This specialization requires purchase of a hardware kit in order to apply your knowledge and skill with real world tools. The hardware will be used to complete the lab exercises across the four ...

Like piezoresistive, piezoelectric, and capacitive sensing techniques devices, sensors based on thermal microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have enabled motion sensing in accelerometers. These ...

AutomationDirect has added ProSense FSC series mechatronic digital flow sensors that monitor liquid media and provide flow sensing up to 50gpm and temperature measurement up to 212°F. They feature a ...
