Mouser: Mitigating Growing EMI Challenges from High-Efficiency Power Systems
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) can be an annoyance to radio listeners, but in industrial environments, EMI problems are increasing as today’s power systems scale up to improve efficiency. On this larger scale, the effects are more damaging than poor reception. Today’s power systems are designed for efficiency. A common tactic is the use of variable-frequency drives for motors, allowing speeds to be optimized while minimizing power consumption. Such systems increasingly depend on silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) components rather than traditional silicon, due to their wide-bandgap characteristics, which permit better performance in high-voltage, high-temperature, and high-frequency applications. The result is lower power consumption and higher power density, which are important in challenging applications such as EVs.

Moxa: The OT Operator’s Guide to Security & Uptime – Answering 3 Core Questions
Maximizing productivity and minimizing downtime are constant pressures for industrial operators in their quest for operational excellence. To accomplish this, a key strategy is to harness data’s potential by connecting more devices on the factory floor—from legacy machines to modern sensors. However, this increased connectivity presents a significant challenge. Although it enhances efficiency through visibility, it also exposes critical operational assets to new cybersecurity risks. Furthermore, the complexity of managing this expanding network often falls on OT teams who are already struggling with limited personnel and resources. The real test is to gain the advantages of a connected plant floor without sacrificing security or overloading your staff. By streamlining your industrial network operations, you can effectively achieve this balance. To help you get started, we will address three common questions about industrial network deployment and maintenance, exploring ways to achieve better control and visibility with more efficiency.
Augmented Reality Modernizes Technical Support in Manufacturing
Machine downtime hurts. It hurts productivity and profits – and it causes frustration. Every minute that slips by with a machine unable to operate negatively impacts the bottom line. So, it’s no surprise that manufacturers are looking for the most cost-effective and time-efficient way to get the technical support they need to deal with downtime and repairs.
Proax: What Causes Phase Loss or Imbalance & How to Detect It with Monitoring Relays
Understanding phase loss and phase imbalance. Three-phase electrical systems are the backbone of industrial and commercial power distribution, prized for their efficiency and reliability. However, these systems are vulnerable to phase loss and phase imbalance, which can result in serious consequences like equipment failure, costly downtime, and safety hazards.
Stop Costly Mislabeling Before It Starts: Smart Label Roll Verification for Food Packaging
A single mislabeled product can trigger an FDA investigation, force a costly recall, and damage your brand reputation. In food and consumer goods packaging, getting the label right isn’t just about quality—it’s about protecting your business from million-dollar mistakes. The solution? Automated label roll verification that catches errors before the first product is ever labeled.
ABB: Digital & AI – Accelerating Industry
ABB has been part of digital industrial innovation ever since the first computerized control systems were introduced back in the 1950s. Today, their solutions enhance efficiency, safety, quality, and reliability of industrial operations, helping customers unlock data-driven insights to make smarter decisions. Of all digital innovations, AI holds perhaps the most potential to create new value through contextualization of industrial data. It is truly transformative, particularly with the rapid advancements in Generative AI (GenAI) seen in recent years. The power of digital and AI makes its adoption a strategic priority for industry. But this adoption must work alongside customers’ existing infrastructure and minimize the risk of disruption. At ABB, their deep industry knowledge is combined with innovation expertise to deliver practical, scalable solutions such as ABB Genix Industrial IoT and AI Suite. Their digital portfolio empowers ABB’s customers to get more from their existing infrastructure, while accelerating innovation. It’s an exciting time: with digital and AI, they are just getting started. Read on to discover how ABB is helping their customers to turn potential into performance.
