Here you will find everything that the designer needs for his design and the development engineer for his new development, from the draft to quality assurance in production, such as new products, their applications, new technologies or research results. Company reports as well as topics on technological and megatrends in all industrial sectors complete our range of industry news. Let's start with the news.
Jumo is building a factory in the technology park for the production of temperature and pressure sensors with a production area of around 13 m². At around 000 million euros, the new building is the largest investment in the company's history.
At 3DExperience World 2024 in February in Dallas, Texas, Dassault Systèmes celebrated the event's 25th anniversary. The annual user meeting supports the global community in the development of future-proof products and processes.
There is now more space available in Michael Koch's “Factory” for the assembly of customer- and machine-specific safe braking resistors. The new, modern hall was recently “taken by storm” by the employees.
Elon Musk files a lawsuit against OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman, accusing them of breach of contract because the company, which was originally designed as a nonprofit, is now operating for profit.
Murat Simsir took over the position of CSO at Montech on January 1, 2024. The former head of sales and project management is now strengthening the company's strategic management as part of the management team.

J. Schmalz presents the new high-speed suction cup SAXM with an extremely high stroke and a new internal structure. In this way, they ensure good adaptation to different workpiece contours and significantly increased transverse force absorption even on oiled sheets. This enables the fastest cycles and maximum output quantities, as when used in press lines. The new double sheet control DBD has a flexibly mounted sensor holder and ensures that the sensor is placed exactly on the workpiece. This reduces false signals and downtimes to a minimum when separating sheet metal.
The range of IO-Link capable ejectors is complemented by the next generation of extremely robust and powerful X-Pump SXPi / SXMPi. Through IO-Link, all handling cycles, valve activities, evacuation times and control cycles can be fully electronically mapped and controlled and monitored from a control room. The standard integrated air-saving function also ensures a significant reduction in compressed air consumption. With the single ejector SEAC 10 ECO, there is a new generation of vacuum generators with atmospheric ventilation. Compared with conventional Venturi systems, not only energy consumption but also installation costs are reduced many times over. The SEAC 10 ECO can be combined with all common tooling systems and installed quickly and easily. As a ready-configured, connectable system, the vacuum gripper FXC is presented. With only one gripper, sheets of variable dimensions, with recesses or structured surfaces, can be handled dynamically and accurately positioned.
