Infrared radiation is not observable with the unaided eye. However by using thermal vision cameras it becomes possible to visualize the invisible radiation in applications with gasses, hotspots, 24/7 operations, etc.
Stopping machines results for a company in much unnecessary downtime and costs. Continuously monitoring conditions with thermal imaging cameras for example in machine factories and in the steel-industry ensures that machines will last longer, that disruptions are prevented and that costs are saved.
Gas leaks can pose a threat for the safety of employees and for the efficiency of your business processes. With the FLIR gas detection (thermal) cameras you are able to visualize hundreds of invisible gasses rapidly, easily and safely.
Plastic is currently considered as one of the biggest and most indispensable raw material for the production of products that we use in our daily life. However, from all that plastic just a little fraction is recycled. Happily, there are more and more techniques available that can realize an efficient and effective plastic recycling process so that a bigger share of the plastic can be recycled.
For the plastic recycling industry applies: the better sorted on detail level, the higher the decrease of the end product. Checking the quality and color is essential in the business. To guarantee the quality a LAB color measurement system can offer the solution.
Many systems for the recycle process are aimed at the separation of colors and raw materials. The innovative TagTec-systems makes it possible to expand this distinction with a selection in the earlier use of the original plastic products.
The photoelectric sensor does not turn on, does not switch or performs false detections. In this article the most common issues with these sensors and ways to solve them are consicely described. With the help of special accessories you can get the most out of your sensor and automation!
The mooring of ships on and off the berth does not only require a lot of caution but also precision. In this article we discuss the increase in ease of this process with the help of distance lasers that are synonymous with precision and accuracy.
The chassis of a car, the antenna in a smartphone and a cotton sweater can for the manufacturer be tracked an be traced back with an identification number. Because of an innovative confluent of chemistry, industry and technology it is possible to mark and thus identify the origin of raw materials.
In this article we will discuss the HSC safety edges from Haake. These safety components are used for machine safety, generally in access technology such as industrial gates.
Pyrometers or infrared temperature sensors are sensors for easy, safe, fast and non-contact temperature measurement of objects and surfaces in industrial processes. However, in order to measure temperature accurately, it is necessary to know the emissivity of the surface that has to be measured.
We are going to talk about the differences and the applicability of photoelectric retro-reflective sensors with a polarized and a normal reflector. Finally, we give an idea of what is the best choice for your application
In this article we discuss the differences between the ultrasonic- and laser-based measuring principles, the challenging applications that emphasise those and an overview of possible solutions.
Curious about how you can save time and money with the help of a laser projector? Then read on. In this article you can read how a laser projector works, what you can use it for and what the advantages are.
Door security for companies is crucial to protect employees against dangerous situations. This is possible with the Haake HST® Trapped Key Interlock systems and to give you a better idea in which application a specific configuration of the Trapped Key Interlock system is applied, we give some examples.
In this article we will discuss the different types of light curtains from Telco Sensors and why they are a leading edge in the applications and industries for which they are intended.
In this article we look at perhaps the most popular industrial term recently: Industry 4.0. Firstly, we discuss: "What is industry 4.0?". Then an overview is given of the opportunities and threats that this development brings with it.
In this article the bending of the sound cone of an ultrasonic sensors by means of a bending reflector. This allows an alternative mounting of the ultrasonic sensor.
IP protection degrees; Everyone will have seen or heard of it once. Often with regard to the smartphone or a light in a bathroom. IP- protection degree can also be called the sealing class. But what is it? In this article is explained that these classes are, what they stand for and what the importance is for the industrial automation.
What is color? How does a color measurement work? Which industrial applications include a color sensor? Those are questions we answer in this article!
