Sensors now smart and wireless – New generation of wireless sensors with optimised power consumption and installation flexibility
Cabled sensors reach their limits in many applications involving robotics, toolmaking, mould design or handling technology. Wireless sensors can provide a flexible alternative – especially when they are self-calibrating with minimum energy input. A new sensor generation shows how this technology has developed, and which application fields it is opening up.

Non-contact is better – Machine safety in dust Ex zones
Safety switches used in explosive environments have to meet two different complex sets of requirements: those for explosion protection, and those for machine safety. Engineers have the choice between different designs and different active principles. At the Powtech, the steute business division Controltec will be demonstrating the various available technologies – one of which plays a particularly prominent role.

Bin surveillance
MATERIALS REQUISITION – An automated wireless material requisition system (AMS) maintains an accurate overview of all stock in e.g. materials supermarkets and stations used in automotive manufacturing, as well as other intralogistics applications. Within this system, a range of wireless sensors developed specifically for such use cases detects pallets, load carriers and fill levels.

Robot-controlled tool construction for precision casting – Production of turbine blades
A wireless connection to a rotating robot gripper – the industrial engineers at Doncasters Precision Castings in Bochum have now single-handedly realised this type of signal transmission. Their chosen solution deploys a wireless sensor from steute: it signalises the operational status of a gripper which removes clusters from a suspension track. Here an overview of the technology.

Track stock levels in assembly and logistics processes
With a wireless-based automated material requisition system, material flow becomes transparent, even for parts which are not inventory-managed. The nexy system from steute is ideal for this purpose. At the LogiMAT, the manufacturer will be showing how the latest nexy version can also perform other tasks.
