We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Data Acquisition Systems",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Piezoelectric force sensors need no displacement from
HBM UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "Piezoelectric sensors ensure high quality in industrial processes such as repetitive press-fit processes, for example riveting, clinching, and stamping".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release SCADA system protects production against failures from
Citect: "In very large installations, host pairs of servers are used with one host pair dedicated as a standby in a separate location from the primary host pair".
In November 2007, we covered the news from InduSoft
concerning its RealTime Performance Management software
- take a look at Gather PLC, PC and ERP data in real time
which says: "Real time performance management software gathers data from PLCs, PCs, DCSes and historians, as well as ERP programs, MES and WRP software and defines KPIs".
Take a look also at the news release from Electro-Sensors, Hazard monitoring system combines multiple points,
as well as Range of rugged, affordable capacitive sensors from Load Star Sensors,
and Transient recorder cards for simultaneous sampling from Strategic Test.
