Leaders and innovators from business, government and the education sector gathered for this ABB premier collaboration event. More than 11,000 delegates attended the bi-annual ABB Customer World Houston 2019 from March 4 to 7 in Houston, Texas.
In 2015, Vector Drive Systems (Port Coquitlam, BC) and Advanced Drive Systems (Maple Ridge, BC), announced a strategic merger. The companies had competed locally as Yaskawa Distributors, but the merger resulted in the creation of a new company called Stellar Power & Control Solutions. This exciting event allowed the two companies to consolidate their greatest assets, their employees, and by joining forces the new company enhanced its experience, expertise and offering.
New Brunswick Power recently struck a deal with Joi Scientific to develop an innovative technology that generates electricity by extracting hydrogen from sea water without producing green house gas emissions. But can the technology provide a legitimate alternative to our reliance on fossil fuels?
The first step when starting any Industry 4.0 initiative or digital transformation within a manufacturing environment, is to define the common goals and consistent use of terms. One goal should be to achieve real-time processing of measured values through the use of more IT and additional sensors. This will enable innovative applications, such as machine learning, process optimisation and predictive maintenance, which can only be done via big data analysis. Deviations can be recognised very quickly, increasing the reliability of these environments.
Concrete is one of the world’s most widely used materials. To make concrete, you must use cement – an industry often criticized due to its emissions.
Sakina Najmi, Vice President Marketing at Sandvik’s Applied Manufacturing Technologies division has been recognized as one of the top 20 most influential women in B2B tech for 2018.
The requirements for modern production plants are becoming increasingly complex. It is therefore essential that the drive technology used is the best possible solution for the task at hand.
Digital smart technology is changing almost every aspect of how we live, and the buildings we live in are no exception.
Maintaining ultra-clean, germ-free conditions is critically important for industrial production, particularly in the medical and pharmaceutical industry. Keeping surfaces in clean rooms germ-free is a constant battle.
There is still a major discrepancy between digitization on the one hand and data security on the other. With the advent of Industry 4.0 it is now time to reassess priorities.
What if all your operators could suddenly perform as well as your best operator? It may sound impossible; after all, the best operators in oil and gas production are usually the most seasoned.
Digital transformation provides a major opportunity to address some of the mining industry’s greatest challenges. The World Economic Forum projects that digital transformation initiatives will result in more than $320 billion of value before 2025.
If you produce industrial control panels (ICPs) for installation in the U.S. and/or Canada, you know how critical it is to confirm their safety and reliability. Workers, businesses, and communities depend on it.
Synchro, Rittal and Proax churn out a unique, complete cabling project in record time. Strategically located in the Niagara Region of Ontario, Canada, Synchro Engineering Limited has been serving Southwestern Ontario with Electrical Engineering, and Contracting Services since 1966.
Despite the fact that Multi-Tasking technology has become increasingly common in shops across the country and around the world, many manufacturers still believe such machines are costly and a challenge to integrate into existing processes and automation.
Digitalisation not only involves the networking of plants in factories, is also brings new hazards of espionage and manipulation because attackers may exploit any security loopholes. Security, in the form of data security, is therefore increasingly important. This whitepaper is to support you in understanding the central aspect of Security and to implement any approach to a solution in practice.
