  • What we learned at Automation Fair 2025

    If this tradeshow proved anything, it’s that automation continues to evolve at a pace that challenges and motivates engineers everywhere. Here are five things we learned this week at Automation Fair 2025.

  • Technology with a human face

    FAULHABER drive systems bring mobility and elevated performance to humanoid robots.

  • Emerson relaunches ASCO series 327C solenoid valve with enhanced features for improved operational efficiency

    Balanced poppet construction permits high flows at minimum power levels, making it ideal for power plants, refineries and chemical processing facilities.

  • Compact powerhouses with versatile configurability

    With a diameter of 14 mm, these portfolio additions open up new possibilities for modern, space-saving drive solutions.

  • How Smiths Interconnect helps advanced AESA radar

    Designers face five key considerations when procuring component designs for AESAs: adaptability, maximizing signal quality and range, ensuring system-level reliability, optimizing life-cycle costs and fast field deployment.

  • Durable, gas-tight polymer film set to strengthen coatings in solar cells, infrastructure

    The researchers developed an ultrathin polymer film that completely blocks nitrogen and other gases, showing potential as a protective coating for solar cells, infrastructure, and food or medicine packaging.

  • Mitsubishi Electric Automation, Inc. launches comprehensive CNC software package to monitor citizen machine data in real time

    The adapter captures live machine data, empowering manufacturers to make smarter, faster decisions without replacing existing equipment.

  • ROLEC announces its latest diecast enclosures for defense electronics

    These IP-rated diecast enclosures are suitable for electronics in tracked and wheeled vehicles, warships and fleet auxiliaries, training/simulation technology, military cranes and railways used for troop transport, logistics and supply.

  • Lenze at SPS 2025: Efficiency and flexibility for the next generation of machines

    One of the highlights of this year's trade fair appearance will be the MF motor m650, which Lenze will be presenting for the first time.

  • Injectable hydrogels offer a new way to track biological activity within the body

    The team at Washington University is working to develop granular hydrogels comprised of microparticles that could potentially be injected, spread over tissues or used to encapsulate cells to monitor or stimulate biological activity.

  • Assigning tamper-proof identities to everyday items with new hydrogel

    To create a solution to this issue of counterfeiting objects and devices, the team turned the hidden structure of a soft, conductive hydrogel into a measurable signal that cannot be duplicated.

  • Material boosts battery and potable water output

    The discovery offers a twofold benefit: improved sodium-ion battery performance and increased potable water supply.

  • Alluxa expands Learning Center with Bioz-powered content hub

    Visit the Learning Center to explore the new Bioz content hub and stay informed on the latest developments in optical coating technologies.

  • Modern approaches to bioprinting technology

    Bioprinting combines principles from biology, materials science and manufacturing to create living structures from cells. Instead of printing with plastic or metal, these systems use bioinks made from cells and hydrogels to build tissue-like materials layer by layer.

  • Skin-like organic biosensors enable real-time health monitoring

    The new biosensors, which are devices capable of converting biological responses into measurable electrical signals, feature a unique design that promises to enable the collection of reliable recordings under assorted environmental conditions.

  • Southco R4-15 rotary latch: One ergonomic key to access multiple vehicle panels

    Available in multiple head styles and a zinc-nickel corrosion coating, the R4-15 lets manufacturers match existing latches while giving operators a single, comfortable key for field access.

  • New electric method clears frost from cars, planes — No heat or chemicals required

    The deicing method dubbed electrostatic defrosting (EDF) taps into ice’s inherent electrical properties for frost removal.

  • Cloud-based MPC retrofitting for HVAC control

    This approach to model predictive control retrofitting can modernize HVAC systems and other critical infrastructure at lower cost, extending the life of legacy through smarter, more adaptive control.

  • Bifacial solar panels: Are they worth the hype?

    How do these solar systems stack up against monofacial panels for utility- and residential-scale applications?

  • SEW-EURODRIVE launches DriveTag — A smarter way to streamline inventory, logistics and material flow

    The customized barcode labeling service is engineered to simplify product identification, streamline logistics and optimize internal material flow for industrial users.
