TE Connectivity PLC last week launched a 3D Industrial Applications Tool. The company designed the tool to provide customers with an immersive and intuitive way to navigate through realistic industrial settings and see TE’s products in action within the various environments.

“The latest 3D tool is designed to be an intuitive journey that allows users to explore TE solutions through familiar applications and terminology, bridging the gap between their needs and our comprehensive portfolio,” said Vincent Menager, an integrated marketing analyst at TE Connectivity.

“It’s not just a selection guide; it’s a gateway to understanding how TE’s solutions can be integrated into our customers’ designs and processes,” he added.

TE focuses on nine applications

Galway, Ireland-based TE Connectivity offers a range of connectivity and sensor systems that it has tested in some of the harshest environments. Since 1941, the company’s systems have worked in transportation, industrial applications, medical technology, energy, data communications, and the home.

TE consolidated its platform around nine focus applications: automation control, automation sensors, networking devices, motion and drives, robotics and warehouse automation, semiconductor manufacturing equipment, battery energy storage systems (BESS), electric vehicle charging, and climate solutions.

With approximately 53 industrial applications and more than 120 different product cards, TE said users can find its products in action and access 3D representations, images, videos, and links to web pages.

TE Connectivity marks progress in 2025

In 2025, TE has worked to expand its product portfolio and its infrastructure. Last month, the company expanded its rapid prototyping capabilities into two existing U.S. facilities to help medical device manufacturers get their devices to market faster.

TE said its new PROPELUS Prototype Centers in Plymouth, Minn., and Wilsonville, Ore., bring advanced engineering capabilities to existing manufacturing sites. This includes quick prototypes, 3D printing, polymer extrusion, and material testing.

In August, the company launched its Ultra Low-Profile (ULP) PCIe Gen 7 connectors and cable assemblies to enable the data speeds and electrical performance that data centers and AI applications demand. The connectors deliver PCIe Gen 7 electrical performance in an ultra-low-profile mating height of 8.7 mm (0.3 in.). TE’s design offers data rates of 128 gigatransfers per second, and can fit into tight spaces, such as beside a CEM connector slot, under heatsinks, or near chips.

In June, TE announced the MULTIGIG Transceiver platform. With increased modularity, TE said this latest offering features a rugged, lightweight design to meet the evolving demands of data-intensive applications.

This highly modular system offers design engineers in aerospace, defense, and marine applications more flexibility to place fiber optic transceivers for optimal performance. The company, which has offices in Middletown, Pa., said this expands accessibility of fiber-optic cables for faster data transmission across critical systems.

Iván Hernández Dalas: 4 Show Floor Takeaways from CES 2019: Robots and Drones, Oh My!

Image
We’ve had some time to recuperate from the madness of CES, in which more than 150,000 attendees and thousands of exhibitors displayed their latest gadgets, gizmos and yes, even robots, on the CES show floor. Last week’s reporter’s notebook focused on the collection of startups around the Eureka Park area of CES, but several of the same trends were evident on the main South Hall 2 area of the Las Vegas Convention Center, where drones, robotics, AR/VR, and gaming took center stage. While most of our time was spent at CES hosting the Service Robots Arrive in Daily Life event, we did have some time during the week to visit the show floor and record observations. Here’s what we saw on the show floor, as well as some of our own individual meetings: 1. Underwater drones make a big splash On the main floor, there was no busier aerial drone booth than the DJI booth, but that is expected given the company’s dominance in the space. But once you got past that, you noticed a lot more drone co...

Iván Hernández Dalas: How automation and farm robots are transforming agriculture

Source: EOS Data Analytics Agriculture is becoming the most high-tech industry today. All the top-notch technologies are finding a place in the way we produce, harvest, and distribute our crops. And in all cases, farm automation and robots are not an affordable luxury, but a necessary minimum due to tackling the rising global food demand. Agricultural robots can mitigate labor shortages by automating tasks like planting, harvesting, and weeding, while also supporting sustainable practices. Combined with satellite imagery tools for data-driven farming, these innovations can make precision agriculture more efficient, resilient, and environmentally responsible. According to the United Nations report , by 2050, the world will need 70% more food to feed nearly 9.7 billion people. Considering this demand, farm robots and remote sensing are the cornerstone of the proper work of the supply chain. Smart machines arise for the farm Farm robots are no longer experimental concepts — they ...
