Industry news:
Precise level control
January 2026, Level Measurement & Control

Whether in silos, tanks or process containers, the exact detection of fill levels is crucial for stable, safe and economical production processes. However, many common measuring methods quickly reach their limits in practice.

Introduction to Part 2 loop signatures and process transfer functions
January 2026, Fieldbus & Industrial Networking

The previous series of loop signature articles dealt with the basics of control loop optimisation, and concentrated on troubleshooting and ‘SWAG’ tuning of simple processes. In this new series, consideration will be given to dealing practically with more difficult issues like interactive processes, and with processes with much more complex dynamics.

Why AI will never truly understand machines
January 2026, IT in Manufacturing, Wearcheck

Cutting-edge technology and solutions powered by AI are embraced by specialist condition monitoring company, WearCheck, where the extreme accuracy of data used to assess and diagnose machine health is paramount.

Why your supply chain should be a competitive advantage
