Series solution: Robust, inductive gauge for plant automation
The induSENSOR DTD is an inductive sensor specially optimized for inline applications with a resolution down to the micrometer range. The controller is protected against dirt and moisture by a robust stainless steel housing. In addition, the DTD achieves high temperature stability and is resistant tSource: Micro-epsilon…
Elaphe and McLaren Applied to develop in-wheel propulsion system for EVs
With a shared vision of supporting a new sector of highly efficient and hyper-responsive EVs, Elaphe and McLaren Applied will work in partnership to deliver an in-wheel propulsion system that will use McLaren Applied’s inverter technology and Elaphe’s direct-drive in-wheel motors and vehicle controls. The pair claim that the combined in-wheel propulsion system will provide […]

Tracking the West’s Growing Wildfires
Across the western United States, climate change has caused temperatures to rise, droughts to drag on, and vegetation to go thirsty. As a result, wildfires are occurring more frequently and over a longer time period each year. This phenomenon was exemplified recently in the Washburn Wildfire, which burned through the Eastern Sierras in California, including Yosemite National Park, for over three weeks in July 2022. Roads closed around and inside the park, and access was cut off to the Mariposa…
