Control Cabinet Cable Entry Systems From AutomationDirect

April 7, 2020

The KDL/D cable entry system allows cables to be installed through enclosures or other bulkhead surfaces, with the added benefit that pre-made, terminated cables can be installed without disassembling the connectors. The split-frame system enables the quick and simple installation of up to 48 cables in a single frame. Four frame sizes, starting at $16.00, fit standard cut-out dimensions and provide integrated strain relief. The KLD/D system’s robust multi-part frame design gives better mechanical stability while achieving a high degree of environmental protection.

The multi-part split-frame system clamps together with a grommet block and grommets to provide a high-density cable entry point with an IP65 environmental rating. Small and medium size grommets (from $6.00) accept cable diameters from 0.08 to 0.87 inches (2 to 22mm). Double cable and multi-line grommets accept more than a single cable. A blank grommet is also available for any unused medium openings in the grommet block.

Optional discharge plates ($29.00 each) install directly to the cable entry frame on the inside of the control cabinet and eliminate interference that can occur on cable shields.

The KDL/D cable entry system from AutomationDirect is cURus approved and backed by a 2-year warranty.

Universal Robots Launches ActiNav, the World’s First Autonomous Bin Picking Kit for Machine Tending Applications

The complexity of automated bin picking is well-known throughout the industry, requiring huge efforts in both integration and programming. Today, most bin picking products are solely focused on the vision aspect of bin picking and often require hundreds of lines of additional programming to bridge the gap from “pick” to “place” – especially if the “place” is not just dropping into a box or tote but accurately inserting the part into a fixture for further processing.
