Legacy equipment in plants can make it difficult, time-consuming and costly to extract data from the machines to help improve performance. Red Lion’s newly launched graphical panel meter, PM-50, is designed to change that.
RoboTape is a patent-pending automatic tape system designed to handle repetitive and demanding tape applications. Innovative Automation’s research and development team have invested over 15,000 hours to develop a comprehensive system for feeding and installing adhesive-backed foams, felts and attachment tapes.
The new docking frames in the Phoenix Contact HEAVYCON product family enable the time-saving installation and maintenance of slide-in systems and other applications in which the interfaces cannot be seen.
Mobile machines are becoming increasingly autonomous. They require controllers that are not only compact, but also safe. B&R has expanded its X90 control system with an option board that allows floating-ground connection of external safety devices, making mobile machines even safer.
Experience shows that demands change over the duration of a project or during the lifecycle of an application. Therefore, in addition to downloading functions from the PLCnext Store, the PLCnext Technology open ecosystem from Phoenix Contact now also offers a plug-in solution:
B&R has equipped the ACOPOS P3 servo drive with safe torque determination. This allows the use of numerous safety functions that previously would have required an external sensor. The cost of machinery directive compliance is reduced.
AutomationDirect has added more choices to their selection of cut-to-length Type J and Type K thermocouple extension wire. Thermocouple extension wire helps maintain signal integrity when thermocouple signals are required to travel long distances to reach operating instrumentation or PLC input cards.
The newest models of MEAN WELL external power adaptors for medical and industrial fields are available now, or coming soon, to Allied Electronics & Automation. These updated pieces — GST Series, GSM Series and GEM/GE Series — offer a total solution for those in the medical and industrial fields.
FANUC America recently released a suite of new mobile apps for quicker delivery of vital information. The CNC Comparison, the CNC Functions Catalog and the CNC Alarms set of apps provide key FANUC product information in a user-friendly way.
Rittal recently announced their new RiPanel online enclosure configurator – making it easy for machine and control system design engineers to individually configure industrial enclosures.
AutomationDirect has added SureFrame cut-to-length T-slotted extruded aluminum rails. Slotted aluminum rail structures are lightweight, economical, and easy to construct. This structure system is very versatile and has many uses, from stands that hold barcode scanners and label applicators to OEM machines made entirely of T-slotted aluminum rail.
Reliable Controls has introduced a brand-new generation of building controllers with the launch of the RC-FLEXair advanced VAV controller, an exciting addition to its range of simple, flexible, sustainable building automation products.
With power grid infrastructure modernization years away, companies need uninterrupted, reliable power solutions to protect and maintain operations and assets during weather-related events and unexpected outages.
Hammond Power Solutions Inc. (HPS), a major North American manufacturer of dry-type transformers and magnetics has announced the availability of HPS Titan X encapsulated transformers.
With the new EL7062 dual-channel EtherCAT Terminal, Beckhoff enables the direct connection of two stepper motors in the medium power range of up to 3 A and for a voltage range of 8–48 V.
Recently, CARLO GAVAZZI was excited to launch the Compact Low-Profile SPMA Series Switch Mode Power Supplies, which are merely 63mm deep. Designed for industrial and building automation, the SPMA Series is a compact, low-profile DIN mount solution with 3 frame sizes from 17.5mm (15W) to 70mm (100W).
