On December 7th INDUCT is featuring in the TV programme ‘Innovatiekanaal’ (‘Innovation Channel’) on Kanaal Z. This programme gives you an overview of our activities together with three of our long-term partners: Agriplant, Case New Holland (CNH) and KULeuven. We explain how we use the Open Innovation paradigm to make innovation available for a wider audience.
Stay tuned to watch Kanaal Z: Innovatiekanaal is in the programme loop starting at 20h on Wednesday December 7th. Kanaal Z is a Dutch television channel in Belgium.
Do you recognize the situation? You want to do a measurement, and gather your PXI, a front-end and some sensors. Soon you realize that it will take much more time than you anticipated. You have to connect the power supplies of the sensors to an external power supply, and – even more annoying – one of the sensors you want to measure has a current output. Half a day later you are looking at your measurement results, and you have to admit that the signal quality is not as good as it should be. The quick and dirty wiring of the front-end maybe was not the best idea after all.
We have encountered this situation, and we grew tired of it. So, we developed a solution. Today, after elaborate testing on our own set-ups, we are ready to share it with the world. And when we say testing, we do mean testing. We stacked eight of these front-ends, and used them during a three month long experiment on an agricultural machinery. Vibration, dust, high temperatures (up to 50 degrees Celsius external temperature), our set-up has it all. At the end of those three months our front-end delivered perfect data just as at the start.
Specifications:
The front-end on the picture supports up to 16 signal connectors, but we also offer a variant with only 8 connections, ideal for differential measurements. If required, connection cables can be contained. We can even provide entire measurement set-ups, including software. Contact us for your measurement challenge!
We will shortly launch alternative versions with other connection options. Please contact us if you have specific questions or requests. You can also visit us at our booth at NIDays on September 27th.
We have moved from Zaventem to the Research Park in Leuven. This move enables us to closer collaborate with the various knowledge institutes and companies in the Leuven region. The vicinity of the university and other high-tech companies will also simplify recruitment, which is essential for our further growth.
At our new location we will have more room to build our set-ups. Besides our offices we also have a construction hall. Our new address is Romeinsestraat 18, 3001 Leuven-Heverlee.
If you are involved in measurement, automation and/or embedded design, NIDays is the ideal event for you. This conference helps you gain and share information about the latest software tools, hardware platforms and commercial technologies making an impact on system development. This year’s venue is the Crowne Plaza in Brussels. You can register here for THE LabView conference, coming September 27th.
As an Alliance member, INDUCT has a booth at NIDays. This year INDUCT will also present its first product at NIDays. Stay tuned!
