Automated guided vehicles (AGVs) depend on compact, precise and safety-oriented sensor technology - otherwise they cannot navigate in space and move to the target positions. Rotary encoders from TWK, for example the newly developed TRK 38, prove themselves in this area of application.
Apply and deepen the theory taught in the degree programme in practice. This is possible together with TWK. In cooperation with the University of Applied Sciences in Wedel, students and high school graduates have the opportunity to make important contacts with companies during their studies.
In addition to new generations of TRK/TRN/TRT encoders and the new model of a non-shaft-mounted speed sensor NBT-D - there is another way to reliably detect and monitor the speeds of machines or systems in a functional way: The newly developed electronic cam controller NOCIO/S3 with IO-Link interface. It also offers two independently operating switching contacts with SIL2/PLd level, which switch in the event of overspeed or underspeed and can thus initiate safety functions in the system.
