Ensure machine safety, security, and operational uptime with advanced network technology. 

In automation applications, Z focusing refers to the precise control of vertical positioning (along the Z-axis) to maintain accurate focus during processes like imaging, inspection, or material handling. It's critical where fine adjustments at the nanometer scale are often required.

Comparing and contrasting programmable logic controllers (PLCs), programmable automation controllers (PACs) and PC – based controllers has become a favorite pastime of the industry. However, this is a nuanced topic to say the least, and if the question isn’t positioned in a specific way, one may receive one answer from one source and a completely different answer from another.

Semiconductor fabrication is a complex process that requires precise control and high purity, as any slight deviation or contamination can lead to significant issues. Bulk Diaphragm Valves (BDVs) play a crucial role here, controlling the flow of critical inert and process gases and ensuring the smooth operation of semiconductor fabrication.

Balluff is a leading provider of sensor, identification, and network solutions that serve various industries with exceptional reliability and innovation. Their product portfolio helps companies across multiple sectors improve efficiency, precision, and overall production quality.

Robotic arms have become an integral part of modern automation, transforming industries ranging from manufacturing to healthcare.

Some applications pose significant challenges that traditional wired IO-Link systems struggle to address effectively. This is where Cable Management Basics comes in.

Techman AI Cobot series is a revolutionary family of collaborative robots that bring the power of AI and vision technology directly to your production floor.

Precision and stability are no longer just desirable in many high-tech applications; they’re essential. Whether you’re in life sciences, semiconductor, metrology, or any field where dynamic focusing and ultra-fast settling times are critical, the ability to control positioning down to the nanometer level can dramatically improve your results.

How many of your plant processes still depend on operator tribal knowledge? Any of those operators retiring soon? Yokogawa's e-RT3 Plus utilizes Factorial Kernel Dynamic Policy Programming (FKDPP) for accelerated machine learning. It can control and autonomize areas of plant operations that have been beyond the capabilities of existing control methods and have up to now necessitated manual operation. 

PLC's are complex pieces of equipment.  If there is a vendor trying to tell you that a particular PLC will solve all of your challenges and is set to meet all of your needs, that is certainly a red flag.

Valin's team will be at SEMICON® WEST this year joining Yokogawa in booth #5584. Stop by to learn how Yokogawa is applying AI in industrial controls to help improve efficiency and speed while reducing development time for semiconductor machine tools.
