Tim Dickson, chief digital and information officer, Regal Rexnord, explores how businesses can turn AI from just another tool to a truly transformative part of their operations.
Nidec and Wenzel’s joint open house took place in June and featured two days of machine demonstrations, production workflow advantages and the latest and greatest in machine tool and inspection technology.
Schneider Electric has revealed the Europe findings of its Global Autonomous Maturity Report which draws on 400 senior energy and chemical industry leaders across 12 countries and four regions. The findings expose a timely crossroads at the heart of Europe’s climate strategy: the region most convinced that autonomous operations are indispensable to net zero is the region furthest from deploying them at scale. For the hard-to-abate industries that account for around 40 percent of global emissions, this gap is real and measured in megatons. It is also a competitiveness gap. As the global race to decarbonize industry accelerates, Europe’s must take this opportunity to adopt adoption of AI-powered autonomous operations risks ceding industrial leadership at the very moment that sustainable industry and competitive industry have become one and the same.
In this project, a practical measurement comparison of conventional tactile and optical systems was done. The goal was to investigate if and how good the measurement results of classic characteristics and waviness characteristics of the different physical measurement principles are comparable. In addition, it was determined whether the use of optical fringe projection measurement systems is suitable for gear metrology.
Across sectors, the same operational truth is becoming harder to ignore: downtime has a direct impact on revenue. It ripples into supply chains, disrupts mission readiness, compromises service levels and, in some environments, creates genuine safety risk.
In high-demand industrial environments like plastic recycling and extrusion, system efficiency, thermal management, and drive reliability are critical to operational success. FAE SRL, specialists in electrical panel design for OEMs in the plastics sector across Italy and Switzerland, needed a drive solution that could meet the rigorous demands of continuous operation, high power density, and seamless integration with modern control architectures.

ONYX Insight launched Ecoblade, a new condition monitoring system (CMS) providing continuous visibility and analysis of blade behavior and health, unlocking millions in savings for wind farm owners and operators worldwide in April.
Gear inspection and noise analysis are essential for ensuring quality and efficiency in modern gear manufacturing. Increasingly stringent requirements on dimensional tolerances—often in the micron range—and noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) performance necessitate advanced measurement and evaluation methods.
An excerpt from Gear Technology Solutions by Dr. Hermann J. Stadtfeld exploring the mathematics behind conjugate bevel and hypoid gears—from the fundamental laws of gearing and the conditions for perfect conjugacy to why real-world power transmissions require deliberate crowning rather than theoretically exact conjugate designs.
