Control technology
Intelligent current collector
Paul Vahle presented several further developments to the product portfolio.
The highlight was the Smart Collector. The system provider for mobile industrial applications presented the world's first intelligent current collector, which makes it possible to detect system anomalies before production downtimes occur.
The Kamen-based company not only demonstrated how the system solution works, but also presented planned upgrades at the trade fair. It also had other solutions in its luggage. Visitors to the trade fair were able to view the latest intralogistics product portfolio, in particular the latest control system generations and energy transmission solutions, at the stand. Vahle also presented another special feature - the Rockwell Automation iTrack, which uses the ultra-compact CPS140 kHz inductive energy transfer system together with the IO-Link Wireless from cooperation partner CoreTigo.
