Festo: Machine Safety – Why It Matters & How to Achieve It

For OEMs, machine builders, engineers, and plant managers, machine safety is more than regulatory compliance; it’s a responsibility to workers, a commitment to customers, and a strategic advantage. Every machine on the factory floor has two sides: its potential to drive productivity, and its potential to cause harm. Striking the right balance between performance and protection is the essence of machine safety. This article explores the key principles, regulations, and practical steps behind machine safety—from understanding new European rules to applying structured design methodologies. The goal is simple: to help you protect your people, safeguard productivity, and future-proof your operations.

Rockwell Automation: 90% of Manufacturers Say Digital Transformation Is Now Essential, According to New Global Study

Rockwell Automation has released findings from its 11th annual “State of Smart Manufacturing” report. The global study of more than 1,500 manufacturers across 17 countries shows a shift in industry focus: manufacturers are no longer debating whether to adopt digital technologies, but how to execute, scale and deliver measurable value from them. The report reflects an inflection point for the industry, as many manufacturers move beyond experimentation and toward broader deployment of digital capabilities. Fewer organizations are operating in pilot mode, while more report active use of smart manufacturing technologies to support day-to-day operations.

Emerson Launches New IIoT Platform for Expanded Wireless Visibility without Costly Infrastructure Changes

Emerson has announced the release of its Emerson Synchros Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) platform, a new suite of technologies that expands asset health visibility and improves maintenance decisions through a flexible wireless architecture designed for rapid deployment across existing facilities. Across many operations, maintaining and tracking assets still depend on periodic manual rounds due to cost and logistical issues. This often leaves gaps where developing issues can go undetected. The Emerson Synchros platform addresses this challenge by providing a more practical and scalable approach to continuous monitoring. Maintenance and operations teams can now digitize inspection points and extend visibility using a flexible wireless architecture built on WirelessHART technology.

Festo Intelligent End Plates Simplify Remote I/O System Expansion

Festo introduces intelligent end plates for the CPX-AP-A Remote I/O Platform. This solution extends system communication, diagnostics, and power across multiple machine zones. For machine builders managing modular machines with multiple zones, these intelligent end plates simplify remote I/O expansion by reducing wiring complexity for speedier setup and commissioning. With intelligent end plates EPLI and EPLI-S, machine builders can scale remote I/O systems across independent machine sections without redesigning controls or duplicating power and networking connections. The location of I/O and pneumatic valves can be optimized to the point of use. The AP architecture maintains high-speed communication, unified diagnostics, and clean grounding across all segments. The intelligent end plate capability supports modern modular and hybrid system architectures, reducing cabinet density, shortening wiring runs, and speeding up machine building.
