B&R’s ACOPOS P3 servo drive can be used in machines regardless of where they are deployed. Machine builders save the cost of building different variants of a machine for each country, because the ACOPOS P3 is compatible with all common power supply systems worldwide.
In the process industry, powerful sensors are needed to monitor the correct position of valves. Some outdoor applications, such as seawater desalination plants, oil rigs or phosphate mines, place special demands on the sensor technology used. With a particularly tight and corrosion-free housing, the F31K2 dual inductive sensor is the ideal solution for valve position feedback under such extreme conditions.
ÖLFLEX® HEAT 260 SC – PTFE single core, robust, chemical resistant and space-saving, for use in machine and plant construction at temperatures: -190°C to +260°C. Excellent chemical, thermal and electrical performance, Space and weight-saving, and UL AWM Style 11486 (28-12 AWG)*.
Promass Q 300/500, the high-tech Coriolis flowmeter series from Endress+Hauser for demanding fluids, now boasts revolutionary 4-tube technology, opening up numerous additional applications in the oil and gas industry in particular – for example, as a highly accurate duty meter for custody transfer and fiscal metering, or as a precision reference device (master meter) for on-site verification measurements. Furthermore, Promass Q now is available for three larger pipe sizes: DN 150 (6”), DN 200 (8”) and DN 250 (10″).
HPS has announced the availability of a complete line of low voltage and medium voltage distribution transformers compliant with the new NMX-J-351-1-ANCE-2021 regulation. The Secretariat of Economy in Mexico, released the new NMX-J-351-1-ANCE-2021 standard on February 11, 2022.
AutomationDirect has added new M30 harsh duty photoelectric sensors from Eaton. The Eaton E58 series are among the most rugged and best-sealed photoelectric sensors on the market. Their stainless steel, PVDF, and tempered glass components are mechanically assembled using Vitron seals to ensure resistance to chemicals and moisture intrusion.
Demand continuously increases in the SEMICON industry to manufacture Integrated Circuit (IC) chips and Printed Circuit (PC) boards in much higher quantity to satisfy the needs in the industry. The global demand for electronics in the Communications, Computer, Automotive and Industrial markets has not slowed down.
NSK Tough Steel material combined with optimized ball circulation and rolling contact deliver 26% higher dynamic load ratings and 2x the fatigue life of their conventional linear guides. Watch the video.
Endress+Hauser has incorporated its market leading Heartbeat Technology in many of its newest measurement and monitoring devices, like the Prosonic Flow W 400 , Proline 10 and Promag W 800 liquid flowmeters and t-mass F/I 300/500 thermal flowmeter. Heartbeat is a critical set of tools professionals depend on to maintain high productivity, while at the same time keeping operating and maintenance costs low and assuring safety and regulatory compliance.
Worldwide, over 90 million barrels of crude oil, natural gas and refined hydrocarbons are produced, transported, stored, and sold to end customers every day. Any measuring inaccuracy results in enormous shortfalls for suppliers or buyers. This is not the case with Promass Q. Thanks to its revolutionary 4-tube technology and an extended measuring range for pipelines up to DN 250 (10″), operators of loading stations are just one example of those who enjoy its many benefits.
Control Techniques’ Unidrive M300 and M700 with MCI modules retain the high standard of quality, precision, and functionality synonymous with Canadian firm Deacro. The industry leader’s current facility is designed to meet the tremendous demand for converting equipment while providing the improved service that today’s converters require, and a working environment geared towards quality control and optimised service.
The new additions to Rittal’s HD line include small, single door enclosures, push button boxes, terminal boxes, and accessories to help food and beverage producers create a more efficient, flexible automation system that optimizes safe and sanitary production processes. Junction boxes, production data cabinets, and fire extinguisher enclosures help producers ensure high hygienic standards at every touchpoint on the production floor.
ABB is expanding its FlexPicker® Delta robot portfolio with the IRB 365. With five axes and 1.5kg payload, the IRB 365 is both flexible and the fastest in its class, as ABB claims, for reorientating packaged lightweight products such as cookies, chocolates, peppers, candies, small bottles, and parcels. Responding to the rise in e-commerce and growing demand for shelf ready packaged goods, the IRB 365 has been developed for applications including food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and consumer goods, where production line speed and adaptability are essential.
The generic PITreader Keys are now available in six new colours. As a result, the transponder keys for the reader unit PITreader can be distinguished at first glance and provide much simpler handling in practice. It’s entirely up to you which functions you assign to the individual colours, as the RFID keys are freely programmable. So you determine which colours you assign to the different machine types, functions, zones or even operating modes.
