Cast your vote for the most innovative solution – TechAward World of Automation 2022

As a visitor, you also come to a trade fair to be surprised. For example, by the latest innovations and developments. The WoTS 2022 offers an excellent opportunity for this: with the TechAward 2022, a prestigious prize per world for the most innovative solution to produce smarter, faster, more autonomous and/or more efficiently. With extra attention for sustainability this year, with a separate Green TechAward.

The online TechAward gallery is open this week and you can cast your vote. In the run-up to WoTS 2022, we will explain the various entries. This time: the decentralized, cabinet-free automation platform from Murrelektronik, the world's smallest electronic safety interlock from Schmersal and the new TDLAS gas analyzer from Endress+Hauser: the most robust and accurate way to measure moisture in gas.

iVario-X: Decentralized automation without a control cabinet Vario-X from Murrelektronik is the first automation platform that brings sensors and actuators to the field in a decentralized manner and without a control cabinet. The automation platform is also highly flexible, modular and enables manufacturer-independent integration. The Vario-X thus offers a solution for the most pressing issues in automation: increasing digitalization, shorter development cycles, sustainability and the shortage of skilled workers, Murrelektronik states.
AZM 40: the smallest electronic safety lock in the world The AZM 40 safety lock from Schmersal Netherlands is the smallest electronic safety interlock in the world and meets the trend towards miniaturisation in mechanical engineering: To save material and costs, machines and other production resources are becoming increasingly smaller. Due to its compact design, it is particularly suitable for smaller safety doors and flaps on which other magnetic locks cannot be mounted or can only be mounted with difficulty due to their size.
J22 TDLAS Gas Analyzer: Most robust and accurate way to measure moisture in gas TDLAS is known in the market as the most robust and accurate way to measure moisture in gas. In the new J22 TDLAS from Endress + Hauser TDL technology is combined with the highly trusted Endress+Hauser Heartbeat Technology that provides diagnostics, monitoring and self-verification. This ensures a continuous health status of the gas analyzer, resulting in fewer failures, lower operating costs and improved reliability.
