Enclosure assembly: why external support can save time and costs

4th March 2026

For OEMs and integrators who rely on industrial enclosures to protect their devices and control systems, assembly is another task to add to the project timeline. Fitting items ranging from DIN rails and terminals through to keypads and labelling, assembly can also be a resource-intensive activity. Instead, outsourcing enclosure assembly can streamline operations, especially when it’s managed directly by the enclosure manufacturer.

Enclosures for concrete: streamlining electrical installation to meet demanding construction schedules

24th February 2026

The government’s new homes and construction initiatives mean that speed of development is essential. To achieve these goals, concrete is playing an important role, with off-site manufacturing optimising efficiency. Across all building developments, fast and secure electrical installation is fundamental, but when working with concrete, effective and reliable integration of electrical enclosures and conduits is an even more important process.

Electric linear actuators deliver precision and reliability in harsh environments

Electric linear actuators are increasingly preferred over hydraulic and pneumatic systems for applications requiring precise, repeatable linear motion, even in extreme environments. Fully sealed housings protect internal mechanics and electronics from dust, moisture, corrosion, and shock, while maintaining consistent force and precise positioning. With the right specification, electric linear actuators are well suited to high-force, heavy-duty industrial operations, as well as hygienically sensitive applications such as food & beverage production.

The mechatronic approach to designing motion as a system

When people talk about mechatronics, it’s often framed as something futuristic — the next big leap in automation. In truth, it describes something engineers have been working toward for decades: designing machines where the mechanical, electrical, and control systems work together as one.

Chlorine filtration in dialysis – how advanced sensing is raising the bar

In 2022, more than 30,000 people in the UK were undergoing kidney dialysis. For every one of those patients, water quality is not a background consideration but a frontline safety issue. Dialysis machines rely on large volumes of treated water, and any trace contaminants that remain can pass directly into the bloodstream. Among the most critical of these contaminants is chlorine.

Why hybrid exhausts fail (and how the aftermarket can help)

12th February 2026

Hybrid vehicles are often seen as a smart compromise for the modern driver. They promise lower emissions, improved fuel efficiency and quieter running – especially in urban environments. However, while hybrid technology brings clear advantages, it also introduces some less obvious challenges, especially when it comes to exhaust systems.

How Portescap empowers humanoid robots

11th February 2026

As the robotics sector steadily moves from science fiction to factory floor, a new generation of humanoid robots is emerging to reshape industry, healthcare, and daily life. These machines are designed to do more than automate – they’re built to move like us, work alongside us, and, at times, even stand in for us.
