Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are one of the main components of any automated system. A typical control system has inputs, outputs, controllers (i.e., PLCs), and some type of human interaction with the system, a human machine interface (HMI), for example.
December 9, 2025 Servo motors deliver precise, repeatable motion, and their performance is shaped by how torque, speed, and stability interact under load. One structural element that defines this behavior is motor pole count. Pole count determines how the magnetic field rotates inside the motor and how much torque the motor can produce at different… Read More…
December 9, 2025 The energy sector is under a lot of pressure. German distribution grid operators need to get their infrastructure ready for the energy transition and fast. By 2030, some 80 percent of electricity is to be generated from renewable sources. A pilot project at naturenergie netze GmbH is demonstrating how transformer substations can… Read More…
