MHS highlights Lifecycle Performance Services to keep automation at peak efficiency at Promat 2019
MHS introduces its Lifecycle Performance Services (LPS) division, a part of the company dedicated to maximizing uptime and reliability of automated systems, while making the most efficient use of maintenance resources.
CHICAGO (April 09, 2019) - At ProMat 2019 in Chicago's McCormick Place, MHS (www.mhsglobal.com) introduces its Lifecycle Performance Services (LPS) division, a part of the company dedicated to maximizing uptime and reliability of automated systems, while making the most efficient use of maintenance resources. At booth #N6359, attendees can see the company's complete lineup of services to maintain, support, optimize and modify systems for maximum performance and longevity.
"Today's e-commerce-driven supply chains cannot afford downtime, but the skilled labor necessary to keep them running is becoming increasingly scarce," says John Sorensen, senior vice president, Lifecycle Performance Services, MHS. "We combine a comprehensive service offering, the latest technology and industry expertise to deliver the reliable performance customers demand and reduce total cost of operations."
A recent Ernst & Young report highlights the challenges operations face transitioning to a more data-driven era, reporting that businesses do not know the contents of 54 percent of the data they collect. Rather than covering facilities in sensors, MHS focuses on the most critical assets and failure-prone areas to provide the greatest value in the most efficient framework. MHS Insights is the company's application of IoT technologies and predictive analytics to deliver targeted, practical insights to identify and resolve issues before they become critical problems.
Representatives from LPS will be on-site at ProMat booth #N6359 to guide attendees through interactive presentations of a variety of solutions and services, including MHS Insights, upgrades and modifications, supply and management of OEM parts, contract maintenance services and more.

How cameras deliver sharp images despite changing distances
IDS Imaging Development Systems offers a range of models, from a webcam-like camera in industrial quality to a tiny autofocus camera that weighs just12 grams. The 13 MP autofocus camera uEye XC closes the market gap between industrial cameras and webcams. Setting up and operating only requires a cable connection. After that, the autofocus camera immediately delivers high-resolution, detailed images and videos. With the optionally available, quickly exchangeable macro lens, users can easily shorten the minimum object distance of the camera. This makes it also suitable for close-up applications. Focus from a distance of just 10 cm. The uEye XS is even more compact and fits into almost any application with its size of just 26.4 x 23 x 21.7 mm. Thanks to its autofocus and 5 MP CMOS sensor, it delivers consistently sharp images and videos from a distance of just 10 cm. When it comes to image quality, natural color reproduction and harmonious contrast are also decisive factors. IDS has therefore equipped the uEye XS with many other practical automatic features familiar from consumer technology. This includes white balance, exposure and gain. As a result, it delivers the best possible result in every situation.
