In a research project, Kistler is investigating the possibilities of fully automated optical quality assurance in injection molding production. In addition to the system design, the project is looking at how data synchronization and the adaptation of neural networks can be automated.
AMA Association for Sensors and Measurement
In the first quarter of 2024, sensor and measurement technology companies generated sales growth of 2% compared to the previous quarter. This was the result of the quarterly survey of the AMA Association's 450 members on economic development.

Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence launches a handheld 3D scanning technology that adds convenient functionality for flexible measurement to its range of inspection devices for the manufacturing sector.

The 'Flir A6301' is a high-sensitivity, cooled MWIR thermal imaging camera developed by Flir for inspection and 24/7 automation applications to increase production line efficiency and improve product quality.

This year's AMA Innovation Award from the AMA Association for Sensors and Measurement (AMA) honors the development team around Stanislav Aksarin. The prize was awarded at Sensor+Test 2024 in Nuremberg.
Whether conveyor belt, industrial robot, hydraulic unit, motor or pump - the failure of individual components can bring the entire system to a standstill. This makes condition monitoring all the more important - for example using a condition monitoring sensor.

Hexagon has developed the high-performance strip light scanner 'SmartScan VR800'. It is based on a completely revised platform.

Until now, it has not been possible to test the quality of plasma coatings inline and non-destructively. Instead, the state of the art is random quality testing using time-consuming laboratory procedures. A new type of sensor changes this.
The winners in the 'Measurement technology' category could not be more different: a handheld device for force measurement, a current collector system and a pressure transducer impressed the readers.
In January 2024, the AMA Association for Sensors and Measurement (AMA) surveyed its members on the economic development of the past financial year. According to the survey, companies generated a 6% increase in turnover compared to the previous year.
