ADVERTORIAL TECHNOLOGY IN ACTION


The UK’s leading event for small and ultra-precision technology is back!


Magnetic Connectors R


osenberger has developed a product family which offers an intelligent alternative to mechanical connecting. Our magnetic connectors support all standard functions, including a high number of mating cycles and vibration resistance. They are also suitable for power and signal transmission. Furthermore, they come complete with the benefit of automatic magnetic connection and are easy to clean. They can thus be relied upon for correct connection even in locations that are difficult to access. A major advantage is the break- away function, which prevents damage caused by unintentional disconnection. Possible applications for the magnetic connectors include charging and synchronizing smartphones, tablets, and cameras as well as connecting printers and hard drives. Other applications include medical devices, electric wheelchairs, hospital infotainment systems, and consumer products such as kitchen appliances, data glasses, and even automation technology.

2017. The event, which covers the full spectrum of technologies, from laser micromachining through to micro injection moulding, and from MEMS fabrication, through to assembly, inspection and test equipment is moving to the larger and more accessible Hall 1. Located right at the NEC’s main entrance, the new hall will be the first point of call for visitors travelling to any of the industrial shows taking place at the same time. In addition to attracting leading names to the show, organiser Datateam Business Media is introducing a number of fresh, interactive elements designed to bring all of the technologies to life. Registration for Micro Nano MEMS will open in May. For more information on visiting or exhibiting visit www.micronanomems.com

available in real time in a cloud environment. All drive axes can be monitored from anywhere in the world via an Internet connection. The concept was first deployed in the application test center at the German NORD headquarters, where it has been thoroughly tested and has proven its reliability in a drive network utilizing standard interfaces and components. AC vector drives and motor starters controlled via Profinet simultaneously transmit live status data in


UDP packets, on the same bus line, without affecting regular control communication. The cloud- enabled drives send data about their power consumption, speed, and voltage, as well as the status word. Tunneled through a Siemens PLC, all of this information is transmitted to an IoT gateway and on into the cloud. Status data can then be analyzed for energy profiling, asset management, and remote maintenance purposes. Of course, any overload and error states can be visualized.

-blox, a global leader in wireless and positioning modules and chips, has announced two new Wi- Fi modules for industrial markets. NINA-W131 and NINA W132 are ultra low power Wi-Fi modules supporting 802.11 b/g/n in the 2.4GHz ISM band. They are the first two variants of the new NINA-W1 module series. Developed with security and quick time-to-market in mind, the NINA-W1 stand-alone modules make Wi-Fi integration easy. Their secure design makes them ideal for Wi-Fi applications including telematics, low power sensors, connected buildings (appliances, surveillance etc.), point-of- sales, and health devices.
