Novel sensor detects oversized ore in real time
In partnership with engineering firm AMOG Consulting, Omniflex has developed an oversized ore detection system for the global mining industry. The system uses sensors on the tray and machine-learning techniques to detect the size of ore rubble as it loaded into haul trucks to be carried from the blast site to the crushing plant. This information is wirelessly communicated through Omniflex’s gateway in the cab of the truck to the driver and ...

ZF increase e-bike speed sensor portfolio
With the increasing popularity and growing trend of e-bikes, bicycle system suppliers have set goals to optimise power and performance of their drive systems. In order to support the driver in the best possible way, sensors are needed to deliver the required data and therefore adapt the engine's power support. An essential component is the ZF e-bike speed sensor for measuring the current speed.
