B&R Automation: The perfect lens for every situation

December 13, 2019

B&R’s Smart Camera and Smart Sensor are now available with a C mount. This greatly expands the range of possible applications for the vision system.

Along with the new cameras, B&R is introducing five C-mount lenses that cover a wide range of focal lengths from 12 to 50 mm. The lenses are specially optimized for the image sensors used to achieve maximum resolution and high detail contrast.

By committing to market standard C-mount connections, B&R offers users free selection of optimized B&R lenses or third-party lenses for special applications, such as those that require a telecentric lens. Special covers are available for applications that need IP67 protection. The covers seal the housing without compromising imaging performance.

A New Dimension In Decentralised Drive Technology

A New Dimension In Decentralised Drive Technology

At SPS 2019, Wieland Electric presented the prototype of a new motor starter that adds a new dimension to decentralized automation in terms of size, safety functions and handling. The podisMS 5HP not only presents itself as the smallest decentralized motor starter in its power range, but also as the first decentralized motor starter with IP65 protection and integrated STO (Safe Torque Off) safety function. The drive solution, which can be parameterized without software, is also characterized by simple handling during commissioning, operation and maintenance and features a sophisticated thermal design which, together with electronic low-wear switching, contributes to a long service life – even with frequent switching cycles.
