Balluff’s Inductive Factor 1 Sensors Detect Ferrous and Non-ferrous Metals Reliably at the Same Rated Switching Distance

Balluff’s Inductive Factor 1 Sensors Detect Ferrous and Non-ferrous Metals Reliably at the Same Rated Switching Distance

Balluff’s new generation of high-precision inductive factor 1 sensors accurately detect ferrous (iron-based) metals like steel and non-ferrous metals like aluminum and brass at the same rated switching distance. Typical inductive sensors have a reduced range for non-ferrous metal, requiring a correcting factor to calculate their switching distance. Not so with Factor 1 sensors; they detect both types of metal with no correction factor needed.

Barrier Glands Enhance Pepperl+Fuchs Electrical Explosion Protection Portfolio

Barrier Glands Enhance Pepperl+Fuchs Electrical Explosion Protection Portfolio

IEC 60079-14 requires that ‘Ex d’ installations in explosion-hazardous areas use special cable glands to prevent explosions from escaping the flameproof enclosure. For these applications, Pepperl+Fuchs is introducing a range of barrier glands that not only ensure explosion protection for electrical equipment but also offer advantages during installation.

 

 

 

Schunk: A systematic approach to the ideal toolholder

Schunk: A systematic approach to the ideal toolholder

Modern 5-axis and multi-tasking machines as well as high-precision machining centers for micro-cutting enable continuously new and improved machining concepts. In addition to the cutting edge, the choice of the tool clamping device is the main key to success. The range of technologies is correspondingly large. A systematic comparison helps to define the optimum clamping technology for the respective machining process.
