The healthy functioning of machinery is at the core of all industries. While maintenance is essential, the approach to maintenance is evolving to become more efficient. It’s not just about downtime, but the costs involved if parts are replaced at the wrong time, which can happen with scheduled maintenance. With the intelligent sensor technology and … Continue reading Real-time maintenance: The bridge to predictive maintenance →

Level measurement is a fundamental  process in almost all industries. As production processes become increasingly complex it’s more important than ever to have the appropriate tools and technology to control and monitor your processes accurately and with ease. Working in often harsh, complicated and dangerous environments with increasingly stringent regulatory guidance, engineers are increasingly in … Continue reading Outstanding results with the latest in radar test level measurement technology →

Efficiency is critical in industries such as logistics and materials handling that utilise field and warehouse services. So how do you save time, increase productivity, decrease disruptions and downtime, and improve asset utilisation all at once? To read more, download the whitepaper.

Noise presents as unwanted signals in most test and measurement instrument. In this article, we discuss two methods to deal with the noise from an accelerometer. Download the whitepaper to read more:

Australia is facing a growing demand for engineers across a range of industries. The expanding pipeline of projects – in areas such as infrastructure, transport, mining and resources, construction, defence and beyond – means that more and more skilled engineers are needed to deliver them. Further, staying ahead of the curve in new developments such … Continue reading Diversifying engineering: overcoming a national skills crisis →

Fibre optic network rollout has been a prominent part of our landscape over recent years, and the cost of the fibre rollout has been a political minefield. Speed of deployment, cost of right-of-way access, logistics cost and turn-up time all have an impact on the overall cost to build an optical fibre network. This of … Continue reading Ultra-density fibre cable technology for FTTX and access markets →

Summer is fast approaching which means that your business can get involved in demand response programs and be rewarded for how you use power this summer. Demand response has become a hot topic in recent years. Last year the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) and the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) launched a joint initiative … Continue reading Get rewarded for how you use power this summer →

With cyber incidents and reported vulnerabilities on the rise, industrial cybersecurity leaders must deploy proactive industrial endpoint detection and response (EDR) across the entire process control network. Failure to reduce industrial endpoint attack surfaces (e.g. insecure configurations, missing patches, vulnerabilities) increases the risk of malicious changes or unintended misconfigurations. This paper will examine how EDR … Continue reading White Paper: Secure the Industrial Endpoints That Matter Most →

Machines are becoming highly systemised, smaller and compact day by day due to the special requirements of end users and customers. These special requirements are becoming a challenge for the machine builders as they need to stay competitive while ensuring a robust performance for their machines. Belden is introducing a new line machine builder choice … Continue reading Belden MachFlex Industrial Cables →

As Enterprises look for increased bandwidth and ways of reducing the overall cost of cabling, the market is quickly adopting Fibre Passive Devices or ‘FPDs’ into their network architecture. FPD’s are generally characterised as passive optical components that split, combine, filter or modify optical signals. These are used to control and/or modify optical signals as … Continue reading Fibre passive devices →

Sensors and measurement devices are commonly used in industrial applications. In particular, non-contact displacement sensors are used to measure the travel range between where an object is and a reference position, and are popular for automation, OEM, research and development, test and inspection, quality assurance, maintenance and service, or process control. They increasingly contribute to … Continue reading Displacement sensor for industrial process automation →
