show review u sensors & instrumentation Live
Sensors & Instrumentation Live teamed up with DJB Instruments to deliver CPD-accredited training to help delegates improve the quality of their data
Instruments to deliver CPD-accredited training to help delegates develop their understanding of sensors and instruments to improve the quality of data. The training was driven by sensor innovation and the very latest in engineering. DJB brought together a team of speakers from
leading technology and engineering companies from around the world. TTS Systems’ John Tyrrell kicked off the Engineering Symposium seminars with the talk “Strain Gauge Load Cells – the basics of use...”. Tyrrell covered the fundamentals of load cell use to ensure that gathered data is as useful as possible. Centrateq’s Jim Flanagan followed with the seminar “Accelerometers, The Truth and more...”. Flanagan provided a fundamental overview of how a piezoelectric accelerometer operates and the key factors to ensure correct use and data accuracy. In the afternoon, Ben Haest, Quality
what we do. We create solutions, we don’t manufacture systems because we actually integrate them. We have many strengths: if people can’t afford to buy something - we rent it to them, and with test engineers becoming harder to come by we have 22 on hand to be deployed to each individual case at a minutes notice to head anywhere in the world.” O’Shea added: “This exhibition is massively
important to the industry. It gives you visibility within the sector by allowing visitors to discover your company, but also allows you to see your competitors and find out how they are operating. “Sensors & Instrumentation Live is a
great platform to look at the new generation of technology.”
Sensors and monitoring instruments for measuring pressure and SF6 gas density were on display at the Trafag stand. Amongst the products Trafag had on show was its new DPS digital pressure transmitter. The DPS digital pressure transmitter helps communications as it is fully connectable with an android app to monitor pressure and temperature. Commenting on the event, Trafag’s Robert Norris said: “We see it as a forum to meet new customers. We are always looking for new opportunities rather than catching up with our existing customer base. “It is always nice to meet our competitors too as our head office is in Switzerland so we don’t always get the chance to come together in the same room.” Top Hex returned to exhibit at Sensors & Instrumentation Live for a third successful year. This year, the company’s focus was on interfacing and communicating. The Top Hex team showcased the HART communication protocol from FieldComm Group. Top Hex’s Gary Weston and Noémi Fechete commented on the exhibition: “It’s great to meet people and to build contacts and network. Whether it is meeting people you have never heard of, interacting with suppliers and even learning

more about competitors – it is a great opportunity to forge new connections.” Visitors could see torque measurement solutions and wireless load sensors on the Sensor Technology stand. Tony Ingham, Sensor Technology’s Tony Ingham said: “There are big exhibitions in Germany, the US and India, so it is important that Sensors & Instrumentation Live continues to give people in the UK market somewhere to go for information on sensing and the supporting instrumentation.” These are just a selection of the exhibitors who displayed their products at Sensors & Instrumentation Live. The exhibition covered all aspects of the test, measurement and control fields, and covered products that could be used across a myriad of industries.
SenSing innovation - the engineering SympoSium
This year, for the first time, Sensors & Instrumentation Live teamed up with DJB
Electronics Design, discussed automation in environmental testing. On the second day, Dr James Flint, senior
lecturer in Wireless Systems Engineering, Loughborough University and head of the Communications Research Division, opened the seminar sessions with an interesting talk on power challenges for wireless sensors. This was followed by The Modal Shop’s
Marco Peres who spoke about excitation methods for experimental modal analysis.

Over at the Enterprise Hub, new to Sensors & Instrumentation Live for 2019, visitors could learn how to grow their business from the experts. Representatives from some of the UK’s top organisations and institutions came along to talk about a variety of topics including funding opportunities and access to top technology. Daniel Watson kicked off Wednesday’s proceedings with an overview of Sensor City. He talked about Sensor City’s in- house laboratory facilities and technical
The exhibition, sponsored by industry giant Mouser Electronics, brought together leading innovators and professionals
