Festo’s new smallest-in-class, compact rotary gripper module EHMD is optimized for reliable gripping and rotation of small objects in confined spaces. It’s ideal for applications like screwing or unscrewing of caps on sample vials with up to 15 ml volume in laboratory automation.
Parking garages, cold storage rooms, gardens – all these facilities have one thing in common: They are exposed to extreme stresses from the outside world and must therefore meet special requirements for electrification. Whether in the area of planning, design or implementation – the decisive factor is above all a safe, fast and simple implementation of electrical installation concepts.
Design and controls engineers can now more easily access, configure and manage HART devices using the new Allen-Bradley FLEX 5000 highly integrated HART I/O modules. The simplified programming experience, available with the Studio 5000 Logix Designer application, can help simplify design, maintenance and operational productivity.
Hubbell Control Solutions announced the release of the newly improved FX Room Controller, a vital component for room optimization and control in conjunction with the use of NX Distributed Intelligence™ System Devices.
Unscheduled stops and faults in the production process can be avoided using our new multi-functional condition monitoring sensor. This intelligent sensor provides you with condition information which you can use for automating costintensive manual inspections. This condition data is also an essential component for implementing smart and flexible manufacturing – a key to IIoT.
Schneider Electric has recently introduced the new Galaxy RPP (Remote Power Panel) 250 and 400 Amp (208V), expanding high-density power distribution capacity for data centers and colocation facilities. Available in North America, the latest offer in the Galaxy family compliments all 75-500 kVA PDUs and provides connectivity to an end-to-end software platform for remote monitoring and control of critical data center assets.
With the pushbutton unit PITgatebox you can easily and flexibly control safety gate switches and systems. And there’s another added safety factor thanks to the integration of PITreader – user authentication. This enables user permissions to be checked via RFID key before the gates are operated. That way it’s possible to ensure that the right group of people has access to the plant, based on qualifications and the tasks of the relevant personnel.
The Drives & Motion division of Yaskawa America, Inc. was recently excited to release HV600 Variable Speed Drives and packages for sale and shipment immediately. The HV600 family of drives employs the latest advancements in variable speed control for HVAC applications. In addition to its wide product range, enjoy effortless setup with HV600’s high contrast display and connectivity with Android mobile devices.
AutomationDirect has added new Contrinex slim-profile safety light curtains, used for human protection and product/machine safety, to its extensive Safety Products lineup. The new Contrinex 14mm and 30mm beam resolution extended-protection, slim-profile safety light curtains eliminate blind spots (the height of the light curtain is the height of the protected area) and the slim low profile makes safety curtain installation inside the machine application easier.
Building a flexible, scalable and reliable network capable of accomodating the growing scale and diversity of industrial networks can be challenging. It is also imperative to have versatile solutions that are easy to maintain to ensure smooth operations while keeping costs down. Moxa’s MDS-G4000 DIN-rail modular switches provide the reliability and durability you need.
In industrial IoT, all the components of a production environment are interconnected via a digital infrastructure and must therefore be capable of communicating with each other – the power supplies included. This why Weidmüller’s PROtop devices also feature the topGUARD load monitoring system and a plug-in communication interface. topGUARD is a modular electronic load output system comprising a feed-in module and several connected output modules.
44 new STEGO part numbers have been added to AutomationDirect’s enclosure thermal management and enclosure lighting product lines. New STEGO enclosure products include a “Smart Sensor” temperature/humidity sensor, a unique flat form factor heater, enclosure door switches, and new Varioline series LED enclosure lights.
Since 1960 ODE has been one of the leaders in designing and manufacturing a complete line of solenoid valves. National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) certified lead-free brass-bodied water valves from ODE are an excellent choice for food and beverage grade potable water applications where products can be consumed by humans. Two types of these brass solenoid valves are available; direct acting, and pilot control solenoid valves. Both types of valves are 2-port, 2-position, normally closed.
With the faster adoption of IoT, many industries, including pharmaceutical and healthcare, have rapidly started to reap benefits from Windows 10 IoT (Internet of Things) on thin client devices. R. STAHL’s EXICOM series 500 Thin Clients made for superior performance are fast gaining momentum for their many intelligent functions with the introduction of the latest firmware release. The industrial-grade Remote HMI firmware, based on Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSB (Long Term Servicing Branch) is made for efficient connectivity, security and manageability.
The SDS-3008 smart Ethernet switch is the ideal product for IA engineers and automation machine builders to make their networks compatible with the vision of Industry 4.0.
On September 22 and 23, the SPE System Alliance will be hosting an international, digital exchange of knowledge between experts from different industries and technology sectors on the topic of Single Pair Ethernet.
