SPS Connect – This Year It’s Purely Virtual

October 13, 2020

Rising infection rates and travel restrictions due to the Covid-19 pandemic meant that many of this year’s exhibitions and events were cancelled or postponed. After intense discussions with exhibitors and trade visitors, the automation industry’s international exhibition SPS – Smart Production Solutions – in Nuremberg was cancelled.

However, the automation sector won’t miss out entirely on a platform for professional exchange.

This year SPS will take place virtually from 24.11. – 26.11.2020 as SPS Connect.

The digital format focuses on networking between exhibitors and visitors and on a varied programme of presentations with high-calibre speakers and experts covering automation’s trending issues. 

Pilz will also be part of the industry’s digital meeting place and will be presenting the latest exhibition highlights and innovations online at SPS Connect.

As visitors you will benefit from a real-time exchange with the experts on the latest innovations in the fields of Industrial Security, Sensor Technology, Industrie 4.0, and Robotics.

SPS Automation Middle East in Dubai will also be exclusively digital this year. Interested parties can visit Pilz on a virtual exhibition stand in Dubai from 18-19 November 2020 and exchange ideas about their automation solutions with the experts.

Everyone is looking forward to a personal and lively exchange at industry’s digital meeting place.

Experts from the automation world will be gathering at SPS – Smart Production Solutions, Europe’s leading exhibition for electrical automation. Why not take this opportunity to find out about the industry’s new products, innovations and trends?

Three Connectivity Tips from Moxa for Switchgear and UPS Power Quality Monitoring

As more electrical devices are deployed in industrial applications, the need to protect these critical systems increases. Unexpected power outages lead not only to higher maintenance costs of electrical equipment but also to lower operational efficiency, productivity, and overall business revenue. To ensure a stable power supply, facility managers need to monitor power quality so that electrical devices are protected from unwanted interruptions and damaging fluctuations.

SCHURTER: FPAC RAIL – 3-Phase DIN Rail-Filter

SCHURTER launches a new FPAC Rail 3-phase filter series for DIN rail mounting. Thanks to the slim housing (44 mm), it takes up very little space on the mounting rail in the control cabinet. The single-stage filter is available with standard or high attenuation. A metal base plate ensures an excellent ground connection to the rail. Space is almost always at a premium in control cabinets for industrial applications in the 3-phase range (e.g. motor drives, control systems). SCHURTER addresses this problem with a complete new filter design that is just 44 mm in width.

RS Offers MEAN WELL’s Energy-Saving VFD Series Motor Drives

RS now offers MEAN WELL’s energy-saving VFD Series variable frequency motor drive modules. The VFD Series was inspired by an International Energy Agency (IEA) report that revealed electric motors and the systems they drive as the single-largest end-users of electricity — accounting for a staggering 43–46% of global electricity consumption that’s overwhelmingly driven by industrial (64%) and commercial (20%) market segments — and stated that cost-effective efficiency improvements could reduce this sum by around 25% and, in turn, global electricity demand by about 10%.
