keep users safe from potentially harmful bacteria (COVID- 19) and are ideal for a host of multi-user HMI applications. Using the latest infrared touch technology users are pro- tected from cross contamination as the touch registers a finger, gloved finger, or artificial pointing device 5~25mm away from the display’s surface. Two built-in touch haptics “light” and “sound” plus one external haptic (loaded onto your hard drive) “visual” ensure users understand their touch been registered. There are currently five sizes available 21.5”, 27.0”,

hysik Instrumente customers are reaping the benefits of the company’s recently launched, low-cost, remote set-up service, designed to make initial


installation even easier than before. With ongoing travel restrictions worldwide due to the COVID-19 pandemic, on-site services are currently difficult, if not impossible, to access, a situation that is unlikely to change in the immediate future. Customers taking advantage of this latest service receive:


• remote set-up support at a convenient, prescheduled time • two hours of telephone support and screen sharing with an expert • system optimisation and tuning tailored to their application and environment. Richard Moss, Director of Global Services at PI, said: “We are delighted to offer affordable remote support to our cus-


tomers, helping them to get exceptional performance and results right from the beginning. This new service overcomes the challenge of organising on-site support in difficult circumstances, and saves our customers time and money.”

Smart Touch Displays in a compact format W


ith the uniTFTs series, Electronic Assembly offers a range of small touch displays that give every switch or control unit the


operating convenience of a tablet. With integrated graphics con- troller, extensive graphics functions and numerous interfaces, the displays are ready to run without additional peripherals. Only three fingers wide is the smallest variant from Electronic


Assembly's new uniTFTs series. Nevertheless, this capacitive touch display has a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels on its 2.0 inch screen diagonal. In addition, this series is currently also available in 2.8 inch (320 x 240), 3.5 inch (480 x 320) and 4.3 inch (480 x 272) diago- nals.


The brilliant color displays are using improved IPS-Panels with AACS technology (All Angle Color Stability).


Contrast and colors are retained even at extreme viewing angles. Unlike commonly used TN-Panels these displays do not have an inverse tilt effect.

Certainly, the promises of super-fast data 5G rates, ultra-low latency and vastly increased network capacity are essential for the high-quality connectivity demands of the industrial sector. But will 5G live up to expectations? 5G has the potential to offer a strong foundation for IIoT technology and to play a key role in driving the future


Is 5G the Answer to Connectivity for Industrial IoT? A


of Industry 4.0. In time, it may even become the standard wireless technology of choice for industrial connectivity. Although the technology is still evolving, for businesses to stay competitive it is essential that they explore the new possibilities presented by 5G. In addition, to steer future development and ensure that their specific industry needs are met, it is increasingly impor- tant that they engage and collab- orate across the 5G value chain. At Plextek, we have been researching the benefits of 5G for our clients and would be happy to discuss your requirements with an initial chat: u hello@plextek.com#

They then receive the picklist directly from our ERP system and present the items to our kitting stations within our EPA making it easy, fast and efficient. This new machinery, along with our smart feeders at our CEM sites, ensure full traceability throughout the procurement and manufacturing processes. All of this smart automation ensures we provide a quality service to our customers.
