Moxa: Go Small with Big Gains

Moxa: Go Small with Big Gains

Moxa has recently unveiled the EDS-2000-EL, with extra small switches to free up valuable space inside your machines and cabinets, allowing you to accomodate more devices for growing network demands. The EDS-2000-EL switches allow you to enhance data flow efficiency simply by flipping the DIP switches to enable QoS and BSP, which reduces the chances of data loss and increased operating costs for your applications.

 

 

 

PNOZmulti Configurator – the Original Tool for Your Safety Circuit Configuration

PNOZmulti Configurator – the Original Tool for Your Safety Circuit Configuration

Software Version 10.11 enables you to use the real-time Ethernet SafetyNET p RTFL to configure safe data exchange between PNOZmulti 2 base units (PNOZ m B0 / B1) and the safe motion solution PMCprotego DS. PMCprotego DS is composed of the servo amplifier PMCprotego D and the safety card PMCprotego S3. 32-bit data is exchanged via RTFL, enabling short reaction times for your application.

AutomationDirect Adds Capacitive Pushbutton Sensor Switches and Indicators

AutomationDirect Adds Capacitive Pushbutton Sensor Switches and Indicators

Captron SENSORswitches are capacitive pushbuttons which are activated without pressure, using a hand or other parts of the body. The buttons have a determinate sensing distance, which may be altered by varying the approach speed and/or damping factor. A quickly approaching finger will achieve a higher sensing distance than a slowly approaching finger.

 

 

 

Mini Production Lines in Containers Help Augment Global Face Mask Supplies

Mini Production Lines in Containers Help Augment Global Face Mask Supplies

A compact manufacturing system from Swiss-based Mikron developed with Festo pneumatic and electric components throughout is helping meet the burgeoning global demand for disposable face masks. This new scalable, open source system can produce 50-100 protective mouth-nose masks per minute or up to two million per month. With Festo contributing engineering support, it was developed in just six weeks instead of the usual six months.
