Production workers can now more quickly access the data they need using the FactoryTalk Historian Site Edition (SE) software from Rockwell Automation. New enhancements make it the most reliable and secure release of the software to date.
Phoenix Contact is expanding its line of unmanaged switches. With galvanically isolated Power over Ethernet, the new 5-Port and 8-Port switches will deliver and outperform existing current POE switches. The new switches will be easily mountable using DIN-rail mounting and fuctions with both SELV and PELV power supplies.
Experience shows that demands change over the duration of a project or during the life cycle of an application. Therefore, the open ecosystem PLCnext Technology by Phoenix Contact, in addition to being expandable via downloads of functions from the PLCnext Store, now also offers a plug-in solution: A left-alignable extension system adds functions not contained in the standard performance spectrum to PLCnext Control devices.
Manufacturers currently using manual processes for quality inspections are facing two major challenges. One is a rising demand for product quality, variety and reliability. The other is the need to protect workers from COVID-19 through social distancing on the manufacturing floor. Both are creating intense pressure to automate visual inspection needs.
As industry and building technologies continue to evolve through diverse applications, there are increasingly greater demands for fast and safe electrical installations for high-load applications. Wieland Electric is responsive to this demand by expanding their RST CLASSIC portfolio to accommodate these needs.
Bosch Power Tools recently announced its newest heated gear additions, the GHJ12V Heated Jacket and GHH12V-20 Heated Hoodie. Including enhanced, modern designs and light, durable materials, the jacket and hoodie feature three temperature settings for enhanced control and comfort.
The new ELM72xx EtherCAT Terminals are fully functional servo drives in robust metal housings that deliver an output current (Irms) of up to 16 A at 48 V DC for the power supply. They expand the Beckhoff portfolio of compact drive technology in I/O terminal format and offer all of the current technology features together with increased performance and functionality compared with comparable EL series I/O designs.
Regal Beloit Corporation recently announced the introduction of its new Browning TorqTitan notched belt.
