[Learn How Zoned Safety Reduces Production Machinery Complexity and Cost](
Numatics, Inc.
Designing discrete pneumatic safety circuits into production machinery is complex and costly, plus requires the shutdown of the entire machine. A new approach called [Numatics Zoned Safety]( enables designers to create up to three independent electro-pneumatic safety zones within one Numatics manifold assembly. A new white paper explores how zoned safety greatly simplifies safety circuit design and reduces system components.

[Mystery of the Part-time Stud Finder](
Steve recently moved into a new apartment and wants to use his father’s stud finder to help put up a TV mount. It’s a nice summer day, so he doesn’t mind driving to his parents’ house. After retrieving it, Steve went back to his apartment and turned it on but the screen remained blank. He changed the batteries and it still didn’t work. He ended up guessing where the studs were. When he finished working, he tried the stud finder again and this time it turned on. Why didn’t it work the first time?

[Best Practices for Marking and Traceability](
"Marking and traceability requirements can be an intimidating process. Lack of compliance may lead to liability issues, increased costs, steep penalties, federal prosecution, and/or counterfeiting problems. More importantly, noncompliance could mean the loss of your company’s reputation. Manufacturers, for example, must adhere to strict marking standards with regards to position, size, and contents of the mark, leaving no room for error." [Read this article in its entirety](.
