In the world of manufacturing, precision is paramount. Every tiny movement of a machine needs to be carefully controlled and monitored to ensure consistent, high-quality performance and production. This is where encoders come in! Encoders are essentially sensors that convert physical motion into digital pulses or electrical signals. These signals can then be read by a control device, which is used to determine an object’s position, angle, and rotation counts – data that is crucial for machines moving exactly as they should.

Triad Technologies, LLC (Triad), a leading distributor of fluid power and automation products has opened its newest ParkerStore in Adrian, Michigan. This store marks the company’s 29th ParkerStore location.

"With locations already in Monroe (MI), Toledo (OH), and Maumee (OH), adding a store in Adrian just made sense,” says Matt Snyder, Retail Business Unit Manager. “Many customers in that market are already aware of Triad Technologies, and this new location helps us to better serve all of their fluid power MRO needs."

Many industrial applications demand complex actuation solutions that go beyond simple linear motions. You may have applications that require multiple load considerations, including radial, axial, and moment loads. This complexity makes it challenging to find a single actuator that can handle all of the necessary combined forces effectively. That’s why Triad Technologies is excited to offer Parker Helac Rotary Actuators, a line of powerful solutions designed to tackle these tough applications.

Photoelectric sensors are a cornerstone of modern industrial automation, providing reliable detection solutions for a wide range of applications. However, sensor setup can be complicated and time-consuming, especially if you have traditional sensors that require manual configuration.

When it comes to mobile and industrial equipment, efficient cooling and fluid handling are non-negotiable. Unfortunately, traditional hose solutions often involve rigid pre-formed hoses or complex metal tubing for proper routing. This can lead to increased costs, longer installation times, and an increase in the number of potential leak points in your system. Parker Hannifin is here to eliminate the hassle with E-Z Form hose, an innovative solution that allows you to be more flexible with your thermal management!

E-Z Form hose offers unparalleled flexibility, making it simple to install coolant, water, and oil suction/return lines for industrial and mobile equipment. Each hose is constructed using a helical wire design that allows it to handle extreme bends while still maintaining full flow. This versatile routing solution can take the place of tightly routed pre-formed hose and tube assemblies, which helps you cut costs, reduce installation time, decrease system
