S
uch was the success of the 2013 Sensors & Instrumentation
exhibition that many of the exhibitors booked their return whilst still at the show. The 2013 event received high praise from visitors and exhibitors alike, with comments ranging from, ‘a great show’, to ‘a truly exceptional exhibition’. As such even more exhibitors are wanting to attend this year, as show organiser Kathryn Ambrose commented, “Due to unprecedented demand, the Sensors & Instrumentation show has expanded. We have seen demand outstrip supply, and have therefore, increased the floor space to
from strength to strength and this year promises to be a great show.” Alongside the extensive exhibitor list,
which includes Micro-Epsilon, Bronkhorst and Kistler Instruments, there will also be an extensive seminar programme running over the course of the event, covering a number of key industry issues from a host of knowledgeable speakers. The exhibition will be co-located with
the Machine Building Show, Micro, Nano, Mems and TCT Live, with Interplas and PPMA taking place at the same time. Ambrose continued, “Not only do we have more exhibitors than ever before, but the co-location will
Stand C46: Kistler Instruments will be showing its range of production, test and measurement products at the Sensors & Instrumentation show including KiTorq, an adaptable torque measuring flange system with universal, intelligent stator; maXYmos, manufacturing process monitoring and product testing systems; CoMo Torque, which provides accurate power monitoring
of rotating systems; plus a wide range of piezoelectric sensors for acceleration, force, pressure and torque. Kistler has a range of sensors and associated electronics and systems for R&D, manufacturing and quality assurance in a range of industries from metal processing to plastics moulding.

Stand D18: Binder has added to its range of M12 connectors with a new series of 8-pole, X-coded connectors. With data transmission of up to 10Gbit/s they are well suited for applications using industrial Ethernet protocols such as PROFINET for security, CCTV and passenger information systems. The high bandwidth is achieved by isolating the four pairs of
wires from one another with a cross or X-coding shield. The X-coding conforms to the industry standard IEC 61076-2-109 and is specified for broadband transmission by Ethernet protocols including PROFINET. Operating temperature range is -40 to 85°C.

Stand B22: First Sensor will be presenting its new digital Blue Eagle camera line with a very light sensitive HDR-CMOS image sensor and thermal and mechanical stability for use in automotive and mobile OEM applications. The megapixel cameras are well suited for high brightness differences and low light conditions.
The cameras offer a wide range of digital data interfaces for
easy and flexible integration into automotive onboard networks and driver assistance systems. Further, the cameras can be powered via Power over Ethernet (PoE), Power over APIX (PoA) or Power over Coax (PoC), in addition to standard DC power supply.
