Nanomotion, a subsidiary of Johnson Electric, has recently introduced its Beam Steering Stage. This module can be used as a single axis tilt stage or in a pair for dual axis beam steering and stabilization. The module can provide ± 5° travel, with a position feedback resolution below 0.1µrad. The overall position accuracy is rated for 14µrad. The beam steering stage operates from -40°C to +70°C and complies with military specifications.
Once again ANCA is on the forefront of innovation with AIMS – ANCA Integrated Manufacturing System. An Industry 4.0 factory wide integration, AIMS is ANCA’s solution for considering the factory as a single machine. Rather than separating workflow into many different elements of design, blank preparation, grinding, laser marking, washing, packing and shipment – AIMS streamlines the entire tool manufacturing process and complementary technologies.
Intended for the user who doesn’t require a built-in HMI display, needs a larger display, or would rather strictly use the C-more mobile app, the C-more® EA9 series remote (headless) HMI unit provides all the functionality of an EA9 touch panel without the extra cost of a touchscreen interface. The headless unit supports an HD1280x720 pixel screen resolution with an HDMI output that supplies both video and audio out.

The introduction of the new, modular IC-HH5* RFID handhelds, means Pepperl+Fuchs is now offering a portable and highly flexible solution for writing and reading different frequency RFID transponders. The latest addition to the industrial automation product range boasts an especially user-friendly design and high-performance hardware.
POSITAL’s new multiturn Hollow Shaft kit encoders mark a significant innovation for industrial motion control. Until now, almost all through- or hollow-shaft encoders have been limited to a singleturn measurement range, largely because fully satisfactory multiturn technology has been not been available.
March 20, 2024 The collaboration of Teradyne Robotics with NVIDIA adds the power of accelerated computing to robotics. The new AI capabilities will increase the application potential of Universal Robots while also powering enhanced functionality in the new MiR1200 Pallet Jack launching the week of March 18th, 2024 Teradyne Robotics, which includes collaborative robot (cobot)…
Weidmüller’s scalable engineering software, u-control 2000, adapts individually to your requirements. And, the u-control is powerful, compact and fully compatible with Weidmüller’s I/O system u-remote. This article looks at what makes u-control the heart of your automation.
Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are one of the main components of any automated system. A typical control system has inputs, outputs, controllers (i.e., PLCs), and some type of human interaction with the system, a human machine interface (HMI), for example.
June 23, 2026 Physical AI — the convergence of artificial intelligence with robotics and autonomous motion systems — is reshaping how Canadian industries operate. Across sectors from healthcare to mining, AI-enabled machines are performing tasks that were once entirely dependent on human intervention. But deploying Physical AI effectively requires more than sophisticated algorithms: it demands… Read More…
June 22, 2026 Segment and Application In a municipality, wastewater treatment plants typically stand out as the main consumers of electricity. The operational processes exhibit significant load variations throughout a 24-hour cycle, necessitating the use of AC drives to regulate pumps, blowers, and other motorized equipment in response to fluctuating demand. In one wastewater treatment… Read More…
