NEW INCLINATION SENSOR SMX.IGS-E

The inclination sensor SMX.igs-e is the first product of a completely newly developed generation of inclination and gyro sensors by STW, which is based on the use of MEMS sensor technology. This family is part of a new, future-oriented software and hardware platform. In addition, the STW software Toolchain openSYDE is supported, which allows easy integration of the SMX.igs-e into an existing application and which is used during the initial operation of sensors.

“MACHINE AUTOMATION LAB” – STW AND FRAUNHOFER IVI SET SEAL ON COOPERATION

A fundamental basis for autonomously working machines is already being created today with innovative technologies. STW has won an important research partner with the Fraunhofer Institute for Transportation and Infrastructure Systems IVI in Dresden for the collaborative R&D project “Machine Automation Lab“. On 11 July 2019, an event was held to celebrate the cooperation, at which the research group’s logo was presented to the public in a symbolic unveiling ceremony.

DIGITAL MAINTENANCE CONCEPTS

Mobile machines are investment goods used by many different parties: Manufacturers and owners, hire companies and operators, project managers and insurers. All of these have a common interest: to use the machines as efficiently as possible. One aspect of many for efficient use, albeit an extremely important and fundamental one, is to achieve as continuous and fault-free an operation as possible, because every standstill is associated with frequently enormous costs. However, without maintenance, faults and therefore machine breakdowns are certain to occur.

BCX - INTELLIGENT SWITCHING, MONITORING AND CONTROL OF POWER

With the BCX family, Sensor-Technik Wiedemann (STW) is presenting a new generation of on-board control units for mobile machines which combine the distribution of energy in the cabin with monitoring and control functions. The BCX family unites the advantages of the tried and tested ESX control units and flexible power distribution in one device. Through the separation of active and passive electronics, customer-specific versions can also be implemented inexpensively and rapidly.

AN EXTENSION TO THE ESX-FAMILY

An extension to the ESX family of mobile central control units: The new small control unit ESX-3CS

Sensor-Technik Wiedemann (STW) is to present a new member of its ESX family of mobile central control units at the Agritechnica 2017 in Hanover. Freely programmable, compatible with regard to input and output types to other members of the ESX family, and supported through the comprehensive STW toolchain, the ESX-3CS rounds off the third generation of successful ESX control units at entry level. With the introduction of the ESX-3CS, STW is also showing a new housing concept.

SENSOR-TECHNIK WIEDEMANN BUNDLES COMPETENCIES

"What belongs together, grows together " – not so much politically, perhaps, but all the more effectively do the three subject fields which have long characterized the electronics industry complement each other: Measurement technology, microsystem technology and sensors. Sensor-Technik Wiedemann GmbH (STW), part of the bedrock of this branch in Germany, has been processing these topics for thirty years, and is now merging them into one business field.
