Little sensing giants of wind, solar energy
Wind and solar power generation achieve the highest energy conversion when the wind blows steadily or the sun shines brightly, but sometimes nature needs a nudge.
Little sensing giants of renewable energy
POSITAL absolute rotary encoders from FRABA with gear- and battery-less multiturn technology are extremely accurate, rugged and wear-free, making them suitable for wind turbine applications.
Optical motion sensors – the touchless alternative
Vitector safety edges protect people and equipment
The VITECTOR unit of FRABA Inc. has introduced two versions of its ‘safety edges.’ Safety edges are devices that are mounted on the edges of large moving objects - such as doors - to provide a warning signal when the object comes into contact with a person or other object in its path. This signal prompts the control system driving the equipment to stop or reverse movement before injury or damage occurs.Magnetic multi-turn encoders
The Posital business unit of FRABA Inc. has announced Magnetocode MCD high-resolution absolute magnetic encoders. Units are self-powered, using a patented technology - based on the ‘Wiegand effect’ - that generates a short burst of electric power whenever the shaft rotates.

SOUTHINGTON, CT – Motion experts at The Baumer Group began working closely with scholars from the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (AI Lab) at the University of Zurich In June of 2012 to design and create the first humanoid robot that moves, acts and responds like a human being. Nine months later, "Roboy" was born and introduced to the world at Robots on Tour in Zurich, Switzerland, on March 8, 2013.
