A frequency converter is a device that controls the speed of an electronic motor. It is also called inverter, the frequency converter performs many functions: reducing energy consumption, reducing mechanical stress on motor control applications, optimizing several applications that depend on electric motors, generating efficient and sustainable energy. Inverters indeed can produce energy from natural and renewable resources such as solar, wind and tidal energy.
A frequency converter outputs a change in the frequency of a periodic input signal.

The development of Industry 4.0 has considerably spread the use of industrial robotic automation systems, making them affordable even for small companies.
The need to increase efficiency in production and develop new business paths has meant that, in the industrial sector, robots have reached such an importance that it is almost impossible to imagine doing some jobs without their help.
WHAT IS INDUSTRIAL ROBOTIC AUTOMATION?
To understand what industrial robotic automation is and how it works, it is necessary to separately analyze the terms that compose it.
The term industrial automation refers to the set of technologies that use control systems for the automated management of industrial machinery and production lines. In this way, the need for human intervention is limited to those operations characterized by repetitiveness and complexity and in all those activities that require a greater degree of repeatability.
Industrial robotics is a secondary area that involves the use of robots to support human operators in some processes, improving their ergonomics or increasing their speed. Thanks to the robotization of processes (Robotic Process Automation) it is therefore possible to obtain production increases, lower costs, greater precision and reliability.
A robot is a reprogrammable multifunction machine capable of carrying out a series of tasks autonomously or semi-autonomously. It can, for example, perform exclusively mechanical and repetitive tasks, manage objects through previously programmed movements, or adapt its behaviour to the environmental and process context, thanks to the use of sensor and / or artificial intelligence solutions. In this case, the system acquires data, processes them and adjusts the operation of the machine accordingly.
The use of industrial robotic automation solutions, born in the assembly line to replace humans with robots and automated systems capable of taking on repetitive and tiring tasks ensuring high speeds, has now expanded to very different application realities, for example thanks to the use of artificial intelligence or human-robot collaboration solutions. The fields of application are therefore multiplying, in the light of the current and future developments of this technology, as well as the advantages for those who automate industrial processes.
WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES FOR INDUSTRIES?
The advantages given by implementing automated robotic processes are numerous, but we can mainly reduce them to three categories: productivity, precision and efficiency. For example, the use of robots can:
spare resources repetitive tasks with low added value, allowing them to be allocated to activities that have a greater impact on the company;
perform burdensome operations or safeguard the health of the human operator, replacing them in particularly burdensome and tiring tasks or in activities involving exposure to potentially hazardous substances;
reduce the risk of oversights and errors, thanks to the high and – above all – constant degree of precision of the operations. You can also accurately schedule processes, tests, updates and workflows, always knowing in advance how long they will last and how consistent the results will be;
increase business productivity thanks to potentially 24/7 operativity. Furthermore, in particular situations, such as the current one, robotic automation has made it possible to guarantee work continuity and a flexible response to processing variations, sudden staff reductions and demand peaks in the most diverse sectors.

The European Parliament has approved the right to repair: it will become law.
In the countries of the European Union, manufacturers of electronic devices will be required to specify the repairability index and the estimated life of their devices already at the time of purchase, by applying an appropriate label.
All too often it is preferred to permanently get rid of an electronic device rather than try to repair it. Thus, the old devices dangerously are piling up on the huge mountain of WEEE waste that is constantly growing every year and consumers, also thanks to the attitude shared by many producers, prefer to buy a new device: Right to repair in Europe from 2021, to reduce electronic waste.
Today the European Parliament voted in favour of approving a new regulation that will impose a series of obligations on manufacturers of electronic devices.
The most important fulfilment is certainly the use of a label that manufacturers will have to display on all devices placed on the market: this labelling will report the “repairability score” of a product, specifying what hardware problems users can solve on their own or by contacting specialised centres.
The label must also clarify the estimated life of the device at the time of purchase by the final consumer. A measure that according to the legislator should put an end to the habit of some manufacturers who use planned obsolescence to establish an “artificial expiration date” of their equipment, not motivated by any actual wear of the hardware components.
With today’s resolution, the European Union made a landmark decision and sets a milestone that will certainly be remembered in the coming years.
It is in fact a strong stance that also aims to change the attitude of end users, who are sometimes overly inclined to set aside electronic devices that might still work
79% of the European citizens interviewed in a survey said they were in favour of the introduction of the right to repair, believing that manufacturers should be legally obliged to facilitate the repair of devices or, in any case, the replacement of individual parts.
