After careful preparation and extensive beta testing with users and system integrators worldwide, the time has come: Sensor manufacturer POSITAL has released its intuitive online tool Encoder.Match.com. This new web platform, which combines a search engine, product configurator and ordering tool, is aimed at the MRO/spare parts business.
Festo’s heavy duty VTSA series valve terminal family keeps expanding – this time, it’s the VTSA-F-CB, with serial communications added to the existing parallel communications capability. That means fewer components and reduced wiring within the same installation space.
Responding to the challenge municipalities face with tightening effluent requirements, Endress+Hauser has developed a comprehensive platform approach for real time monitoring of all critical parameters and collection of true representative samples for lab testing.
The new FLIR GF77 Gas Find IR Series provides professionals with the flexibility to use one uncooled gas detection camera for gas detection and thermal inspections across chemical and industrial manufacturing, electric power utilities, natural gas supply chain, food and agricultural, and public safety.
Insulation type MTW machine tool wire is now available in 22-gauge from AutomationDirect. Existing MTW wire sizes are 20 AWG to 10 AWG. The 22 AWG wire offers an 8% smaller diameter with a 3 amp 600-volt rating which is needed for many types of terminal block connections that cannot accept larger wire. MTW wire is designed and approved for use in industrial and commercial equipment.
PLANET ICS-210xT Serial Device Server series is specially designed to convert RS232, RS422 or RS485 serial communication to Industrial Fast Thernet networking so as to extend the network distance efficiently and inexpensively. There are one 10/100BASE-TX RJ45 port and single-mode/multi-mode media available in the ICS-210xT series and its operating temperature ranes from -40 to 75 degrees C for your network needs.
Cleaning time is downtime, and Cleaning-In-Place (CIP) cycles to eliminate product buildup in a food and beverage operation may be running overly long. Another world first from Endress+Hauser – the Liquitrend QMW43 – provides continuous product buildup data to shorten cleaning cycles to what is necessary to do a thorough job while assuring both operators and consumers of consistent product quality.
Discover the new compact MV Switchgear featuring SF6-free Shielded Solid Insulation (2SIS) and incidentally touch safe system. Premset dramatically improves the most important aspects of today’s MV Switchgear. It introduces a compact (SF6-free), smart grid ready solution with the simplest installation and service procedures due to insulation and shielding of all live parts.
With precision twice that of existing energy standards, the ION9000 redefines the standard for accuracy. It resolves power quality issues faster with patented disturbance tracking technology, and provides unique modularity designed to adapt to your changing energy needs, now and far into the future.
The comprehensive power supply portfolio offers single-phase and 3-phase DIN rail power supply units with output currents from 2.5 A to 40 A: from the PS1000 series for small, cost-optimized applications and the PS2000 series for the commonest standard applications to the PS3000 series for demanding 24 and 48 V DC applications.
Connectivity between production and automation systems in process manufacturing and the Internet is constantly increasing. In order to fully protect manufacturing systems against cyberattack, B&R has further enhanced the user management features of the APROL process control system. Distributed, autonomous security cells provide simple yet efficient protection for systems against malicious software and attacks from hackers.
Industrial engineers can not only design machines and processes more efficiently but also reimagine what’s possible in design projects using new additions to the Studio 5000 design software. Rockwell Automation has enhanced the software with two key updates.
Industrial enclosures play an important role in protecting controls, circuit boards, switches and other critical machine components. To function properly, these components should be shielded from environmental elements such as dust, water, debris and extreme temperatures.
SCHUNK is entering a new era of tool clamping: In September, the sensory hydraulic expansion toolholder iTENDO, the most sensitive toolholder on the market, has been made available. For the first time, it will be possible to monitor metal-cutting processes in high resolution directly at the tool and to control cutting parameters in real time.
OnRobot has launched OnRobot Sander, an all-electric random orbital sander for automated finishing applications, including sanding and polishing. Traditional sanding automation solutions often require a background in robotics to implement and maintain. With the launch of OnRobot Sander, manufacturers now have access to a complete out-of-the-box sanding tool that’s easy to use with all major collaborative and lightweight industrial robots.
FACTS Engineering, the manufacturer of Productivity PLCs for AutomationDirect, has successfully received ABS (American Bureau of Shipping) certification for Productivity2000 and Productivity3000 PLCs.
