Ultrasonic sensors from Leuze: Multifunctional, compact and economic pricing! Its 60th anniversary already indicates that Leuze is a reliable link for detecting and signalling in industrial automation. This is partly due to many patents and its presence in many machines, along conveyor belts, in factory halls and so on. Besides the many possibilities with optical sensors, Leuze would especially like to underline that this is not the only thing they do. For example, the latest addition within their range of ultrasonic sensors is a completely new series of switching and measuring ultrasonic sensors HTU 200 and DMU 200 that helps you when an optical or inductive sensor can't cope! Equipped with IO-Link and available in standard length, but also many "short body" shapes available.

Whether it's chocolate, beer, meat products, chemicals, cheese or stacks of bricks: it doesn't get any better than Leuze has installed sensors somewhere to detect whether things are going well.

ELC safety light curtains from Leuze: an economical, modern solution and, not unimportant in these times, fast delivery.

Leuze, the expert for innovative and efficient sensor solutions in industrial automation, has officially appointed itsme as a Value Added Partner (VAP). This is Leuze's first VAP in the Netherlands. On 20 September last, the tangible proof of this warm link was handed over in Raamsdonksveer by Eric Leenards of Leuze.

Although the provisioning of care homes is often well organised, on the flip side there is sometimes still room for improvement, especially where hygiene processes are concerned. With that in mind, Jop van Haaren, director and owner of Less2Care from Raalte, set out to work ten years ago. The result? The VacuSan: an automated solution for the safe vacuum sealing and disposal of used incontinence materials. The electronic parts of the operating system are delivered as a kit – a customer-specific package – by itsme. “As a customer you don’t need to worry about it anymore.”

Design and delivery of industrial turnkey projects, automation of operating systems; Mario Claes, owner of Etec Systems in Balen \(Belgium\), has been drawing on a continuously growing source of experience since fourteen years now. Each situation reveals unique challenges. Each solution contributes to an ever expanding range of knowledge

On the outskirts of Hengelo-Zuid tons of waste are given a new purpose each year. Through incineration, separation and composting, energy and raw materials are extracted and find their way back to society. With the heat that is released during incineration, Twence generates enough power to provide half of all households in the Twente \(region in the Eastern Netherlands\) with electricity. In order to guarantee the continuity of all the plants, operators carry out regular inspection rounds in the installations, so good visibility is important. In switching from fluorescent lighting to LED, Twence enlisted the help of itsme.
