Yaskawa America, Inc., Drives and Motion Division, is pleased to announce an expansion to our HV600 family of HVAC Drives. To further advance HV600 as the premier drive for HVAC applications, we are introducing the following products to the family.
KROHNE’s OPTIWAVE 6500C delivers continuous high measurement in silos, hoppers, and containers. The OPTIWAVE 6500C is an optimal product for bulk storage in mining, minerals, chemicals, power, paper, food and beverage industries.
The ElectroCraft RapidPower Enhanced series (RPE series) is an innovative, new brushless DC (BLDC) motor design that combines performance, flexibility and affordability, offering original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) the perfect platform for a wide range of motion applications. This level of configurability for BLDCs enables the RPE series to be quickly acquired and adapted into an application, shortening the design cycle for a faster time-to-market.
AutomationDirect has added new LUTZE SILFLEX FBP cable options to their existing cut-to-length cable lineup. More 20, 18, 14, and 12 AWG shielded and unshielded cables, an additional 16AWG shielded cable, and a new 10AWG shielded cable option are now available.
It’s never been easier to upgrade your facility with motor disconnect switches that prioritize sanitation, promote safety and minimize installation time with footprint compatibility. Thanks to an industry-standard mounting pattern, MENNEKES 30A CDS, SPEC Grade and SDS motor disconnects are true drop-in replacements.
Manufacturers seeking to avoid downtime and work-in-progress due to heater failure in industrial ovens, kilns, and metal heat treatment applications can gain peace of mind from a new Omron solution that monitors heater condition with high accuracy on a 24/7 basis. Industry leading automation solution provider Omron Automation Americas recently launched a new heater condition monitor that supports predictive maintenance by preventing heater failure.
AutomationDirect has added CCEA SIRIO Q series LED work lights to expand their offering of industrial LED fixtures. These rugged, industrial-grade light bars are ideal for tractors, trucks, trailers, off-road vehicles, and earth-moving machines. Providing up to a 1750 lumen output, these work lights feature an aluminum head on a pan-and-tilt stainless-steel bracket, allowing precise light adjustment in any direction.
The Linux-based operating system for the automation toolkit ctrlX AUTOMATION is now available for hardware from third-party providers and virtualized environments. Highlights include next level of openness and freedom in automation, can be used on all levels – from the field level to the cloud, hardened software stack with a high degree of cyber security, and connection to the ctrlX Store and the ctrlX Device Portal.
The MS TVO15 (Donkey) is MAXOLUTION’s Canadian assembled and configured UL/CSA certified Autonomous Guided Vehicle (AGV). It has an impressive load capacity of 500 to 2000 Kg and draws its primary and continuous source of power from an inductive charging line (MOVITRANS®) concealed beneath the floor, which also serves as a navigation route in both dirty and wet environments.
AutomationDirect has added new L7P servo motors, drives, cables, and gearboxes from LS Electric. These new intermediate-level L7P servo systems have all the features of the basic L7C servos including setup wizards, auto tuning, built-in indexer, and more, but with a larger range of system sizes and the option for 460VAC operation. The built-in absolute encoder on each servo motor is also higher resolution at 19-bit (524,288 ppr).
Maximize your machine’s performance: Performing precise linear motor drive control and nanoscale positioning, the PMAC (Programmable Multi Axis Controller) has been appreciated by manufacturers of semiconductor manufacturing equipment and other leading-edge equipment. Omron now offers a next generation motion controller CK3M that packs PMAC’s superior motion control capability, multi-vendor connectivity, and flexible development capability into its compact design.
Littelfuse Inc. has announced the new eFuse Protection ICs product line, a series of four versatile circuit protection devices. The eFuse Protection ICs utilize an innovative design that provides a wide range of power input (3.3V to 28V) and integrated protection. In addition to overvoltage protection, these electronic fuses protect against overcurrent, short circuit, inrush current, reverse current, and overtemperature events with real-time diagnostics—all in one chip.
Until now, there were only two alternatives for the maintenance of machine parts and plants: either parts were only replaced if they were already defective, or parts that were still functional were replaced at specific intervals as a precaution. However, thanks to Industry 4.0 and digitalization, there is a more efficient alternative to reactive maintenance: preventative maintenance. The idea behind this is to carry out maintenance measures depending on actual performance.
Maxon’s new IDX compact integrated servo gearmotor + drive combines a powerful, brushless EC-i motor and an EPOS4 positioning controller, which can be complemented with a maxon planetary gearhead when required. This integrated motor stands out for its high torque density, high efficiency, maintenance-free components, and a high-quality industrial housing providing IP65 protection. The IDX also features configurable digital and analog inputs and outputs, and intuitive software enabling easy commissioning and integration into master systems.
