Automated labelling can significantly increase the speed at which products, components, cables and even laboratory samples can be identified. Brady offers a complete, automated labelling solution that includes industrial-grade labels, automated label printing software and automated print & apply systems.

Reliable labels are selected or designed to stay attached and remain legible in your working environment. They are automatically printed by smart label printing software and print & apply systems that can be fully integrated in your environment, and driven by your existing data.

Energy prices declined 7.3% in February, led by coal (-34.8%) and natural gas in the U.S. (-27.2%). Non-energy prices changed little as a group.

Replacing mechanical systems within a car with electric systems is not a new concept in automotive design, as evidenced by power windows, electric seat adjustment and push-button ignition. A host of drive-by-wire systems currently in development are extending that to primary, operational automotive functions, employing circuitry to replace heavy, cumbersome mechanical and hydraulic systems. In particular, steer-by-wire has proven attractive for its design benefits and for its potential to enable Automated Emergency Steering (AES). This is where Paragraf’s sensors can help.

PLAST GROUP expands its Oradea site with a new performant technology to carry out the painting process in a sustainable and efficient way, massively reducing the environmental impact.

Plast Group, with headquarter in Italy, is a leading supplier of plastic components and injection molds able to meet the requirements of the most demanding markets, with more than 45 years of experience. In 2016, Plast Group decided to extend production in Oradea, Romania due to strategic beneficial logistic position.

Ford will introduce lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries to the Mustang Mach-E line-up 1 in Europe this year, as part of the company’s commitment to making EVs more affordable and accessible to customers.

Ford has also announced it is investing $3.5 billion to build the first automaker-backed LFP battery plant in the U.S. – called BlueOval Battery Park Michigan – which will open in 2026.

BMW Group and Valeo are taking their long-existing relationship to the next level with a new partnership. After the major announcement of their collaboration for ADAS domain controller, sensors and software for parking and maneuvering for BMW's upcoming platform generation "Neue Klasse" (the next generation modular platform for the BMW vehicles), the BMW Group and Valeo announced their cooperation for the co-development of fully automated parking technologies up to Level 4 (fully automated driving/parking, with no supervision needed by the driver).

HELLA, the automotive supplier operating under the FORVIA umbrella brand, has surpassed the mark of 500 million electronic accelerator pedal sensors. The first accelerator pedal sensors rolled off the assembly line more than 25 years ago. Accelerator pedal sensors detect the position of the pedal and transmit the corresponding command to accelerate or reduce engine power to the engine control unit.
