Daifuku Wynright was established in 2013 as a result of Daifuku Group’s acquisition of Wynright Corporation and is now the largest material handling company in the world.

Last year, the company generated almost $3 billion in revenue worldwide. Daifuku has approximately 6,500 employees globally, while Wynright has around 500. 

Material handling is the aspect of logistics which is mainly concerned with the movement of boxes from one place to another, usually over short distances, such as from a truck to a warehouse, and then from the warehouse to the trucks for the dispatching of goods to customers’ locations.  [Read more…] about Material world: Exclusive interview with Wynright Robotics boss

Acromag and Ctek partnership for remote asset management and cloud-based monitoring solutions

January 15, 2018 by Anna

Acromag has announced a strategic partnership with California-based Ctek, Inc. to offer complete monitoring and control solutions for customers to manage their remote assets.

Combining Acromag’s broad offering of signal measurement and conditioning products with Ctek’s expertise in cellular communication and autonomous controllers provides a simple, yet powerful distributed control system without all the integration hassles, says Acromag.

Users can quickly and cost-effectively deploy these systems without programming to connect endpoints to the enterprise, enabling visual access to operation status from anywhere, claims the company. Menu-based configuration speeds setup of data collection, reporting, and alarm functions.

MachineMetrics wins IoT breakthrough award

January 15, 2018 by Anna

MachineMetrics, located in Boston, Massachusetts, is the winner of the 2018 “Smart Manufacturing Solution of the Year” award from IoT Breakthrough, an independent organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global Internet-of-Things (IoT) market today.

“A great deal of hesitancy still exists for manufacturers to embrace the technology that addresses the new challenges presented by digital transformation,” said Bill Bither, CEO of MachineMetrics.

“With installing cloud-based monitoring systems being the first and perhaps most important step toward data-driven manufacturing, we designed MachineMetrics to help companies overcome these challenges and create a roadmap forward so they can take this initial and crucial step. We are proud to be developing the future of manufacturing alongside them.”

Infineon’s Sensorchip for CERN

One trend in mobile communications is to unlock smartphones by 3D face recognition instead of fingerprint or PIN.

Making authentication more convenient and more secure, it may soon become indispensable for mobile payment applications and mobile ID.

Infineon Technologies claims its new 3D image sensor chip, with unlock-with-your-face feature, makes the process smarter, faster and more reliable.
