Learn how load cells help AMRs and AGVs measure payload weight, detect uneven loading and provide real-time feedback to onboard control systems

How Load Cells Help AMRs and AGVs Detect Overload and Uneven Payloads

An autonomous mobile robot may know exactly where it is—but does it know whether its payload is safe to carry? Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) and Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) increasingly move materials through warehouses, factories, hospitals, laboratories and other industrial environments. …

What NASA’s Artemis Testing Reveals About Aerospace Data Acquisition

Testing a launch vehicle involves much more than measuring vibration during lift-off. Engineers must validate structures, propulsion systems, avionics, electrical power, ground equipment and recovery procedures—often while collecting thousands of synchronised measurements under extreme conditions. NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) and …

How to Troubleshoot Printed Circuit Boards Without Schematics

A Practical Guide for Maintenance and Repair Teams When a printed circuit board fails, the first question many technicians ask is, “Where are the schematics?” Unfortunately, in many industrial environments, the answer is often the same: unavailable. Whether maintaining legacy manufacturing …

For medical electronics repair, maintenance, and R&D teams, Huntron Access Probers provide a precise, flexible, and efficient approach to PCB testing. By combining micron-level probe placement, automated workflows, and integration with existing measurement tools, these systems help ensure reliable diagnostics while keeping pace with the complexity of modern medical devices.

Power-Off PCB Diagnostics for Industrial Maintenance Teams

Industrial maintenance teams are responsible for keeping production equipment running with minimal downtime. When circuit boards fail, troubleshooting must happen quickly—even when schematics are unavailable or equipment cannot be powered safely. Huntron power-off PCB diagnostic tools use Analog Signature Analysis (ASA). …
