Industry news:
Loop signature 22: How cyclical disturbances affect a control loop
April 2024, Editor's Choice, Michael Brown Control Engineering

When tuning noisy loops, we recommend in our courses that one should eliminate the noise by editing it out, so the tuning will be done only on the true process response, free of any noise. The controller is controlling the process, and is not controlling the noise.

RS Group chooses Siemens simulation technology for DesignSpark
April 2024, IT in Manufacturing, Siemens South Africa

Siemens Digital Industries Software announced that the RS Group has selected Siemens as its strategic electronic design automation provider for its new, cloud native, DesignSpark Circuit Simulator tool, which empowers users to streamline the design process.

Chain hoist friction clutch tester
April 2024, Motion Control & Drives, WIKA Instruments

WIKA’s FRKPS chain hoist test set is a reliable and efficient way to test the friction clutch on your chain hoist.

Monitoring the voltage drop in cables
April 2024, Electrical Power & Protection, Turck Banner Southern Africa

With its new M12Plus connectors, Turck Banner is directly shifting the condition monitoring of cables subject to severe stress to the connection technology. The connectors, which come with voltage and current monitoring and a Bluetooth chip, enable measured voltage and current values to be sent wirelessly to a controller.

Seamless automation system upgrade
April 2024, Industrial Computer Hardware, ABB South Africa

ABB has launched the ABB Ability Symphony Plus SDe Series, a portfolio of hardware products that help modernise existing process control system installations with minimal risk and disruption to plant operations

Moog takes a leadership position in lunar exploration
April 2024, News

NASA is planning for a sustained human presence on the Moon, and resources such as water could eventually be harnessed from the lunar surface instead of being transported from Earth, and it has turned to industry to find ways to excavate and transport that icy regolith.

Boosting cybersecurity in substation automation systems
April 2024, Electrical Power & Protection, RJ Connect

A significant surge in distributed energy resources (DERs) and energy storage systems, along with the upward trend in unmanned substations, have made power grids a lot more complex. To address these instabilities in power grids, digital substations increasingly play an important role in power transmission.

High-efficiency switching solutions
April 2024, Operator Interfaces, Switches & Relays

Becker Mining South Africa has launched a new-generation energy distribution system that has been specially developed to enhance productivity and safety in the challenging conditions of local underground coal mines.
