More and more companies are choosing to bring back production and development from low-wage countries. E.D.&A. took this reshoring step in 2012. Now ten years later, this does certainly not do any harm to us as a Belgian electronics manufacturer. Our customers need flexibility, speed and quality, and so do we.
The downside of digitisation and the connection machines and devices to the internet is that they become more vulnerable to cyber attacks and other risks. Cyber security will demand more and more attention from both electronics developers (like us) and machine and appliance constructors (like you) in the coming years. What is E.D.&A.'s role in cybersecurity?
From Tuesday, September 23rd to Thursday, September 25th, you can visit Electronics & Applications (E&A) at the Jaarbeurs Utrecht. Stop by our booth and discover the latest developments in electronics. Also, join us on Wednesday, September 24th for our seminar: ‘Made in Europe: The Future of Electronics Manufacturing’.
Co-development is the key to shorter development cycles and faster time-to-market. Co-development for hardware and software can be implemented in various ways. However, it is not a requirement – E.D.&A. can still take care of the entire development process. How would you like to collaborate?
Why is Edge AI the game changer for machine and device manufacturers? E.D.&A. explains the major step forward for smart electronics in machines and appliances. Read more.
The shift from BLDC to PMSM motors is in full swing. While BLDC has been the standard for years, sensorless Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM) now offer clear advantages: higher efficiency, more torque, quieter operation and a more compact design. Eliminating mechanical position sensors also makes the system cheaper, more reliable and easier to integrate. Why choose sensorless PMSM?
How do EMC tests actually work — from initial preparation to certification? During our exclusive EMC event for customers and prospects on Thursday, May 28, 2026, you will get a unique behind-the-scenes look at the entire testing process. Reserve your seat now and don’t miss this opportunity to combine knowledge, insights and hands-on experience to strengthen your path toward successful product certification.
Many organizations still view the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) as something that only applies to new connected products from 2027 onwards. However, this assumption is only partly correct. As early as September 2026, a mandatory reporting obligation for cybersecurity incidents will come into force. This requirement affects all existing products, including smartphone apps and server-side applications that are part of your product ecosystem. What does this mean for you as a manufacturer of machines and appliances?
For a European equipment manufacturer, we developed a concept design to assess whether sufficient light and airflow are available to power sensors autonomously. This project fits within a broader evolution toward energy-efficient and low-maintenance IoT solutions. This hybrid energy supply combines the best of both worlds: sustainable energy from the environment and reliable backup capacity.
