HMS receives a € 600 000 order to connect vibration sensors to industrial networks

A world leading German sensor manufacturer have placed an € 600,000 order for Anybus® gateways to connect their vibration sensors via network to industrial control customers.

This new order is for applications where data from vibration sensors, installed in industrial machines, are connected via Anybus communication gateways to connect these sensors to the control system in the factory.

"This order is for shipments, during the coming 12 months, to a leading Germany sensor company and represents an order value of 600.000 Euro for HMS. Here in Germany we see a good growth for industrial networks, backed by a better macro situation as well as matureness and acceptance of using network systems in demanding industrial applications" says Thilo Döring, Sales Director at HMS in Karlsruhe, Germany.
