Introducing the CSF-ULW ultra-light weight gearhead. This series features a newly engineered lightweight structure with an ultra-compact shape. The ULW line maintains the same performance standards as the CSF-2UH series. Ideal for use on end of arm axes for small industrial and collaborative robots, the CSF-ULW is also well suited for general industrial machinery where weight is a critical factor.
POSITAL’s digital display units offer a cost-effective way to provide direct measurement readouts. Depending on the type of sensor, the display units can be ordered with Analog, SSI or incremental inputs. Thanks to their compact size and sturdy construction, they can be used for machine setup tasks or as a cost-effective way of monitoring machine status right on the factory floor. Limit warnings or cam-follower functionality can also be displayed.
December 19, 2023 In the dynamic landscape of electrical and network infrastructure solutions, Panduit, a global industry leader, is making headlines once again. They have recently embarked on a comprehensive testing program for their cable cleats, aligning them with the latest technical standards set forth by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). This significant initiative underlines…
The ABB ACQ580 variable frequency drive (VFD) for the water and wastewater industries enhances system performance, simplifies commissioning and operation, and optimizes wire-to-water/-air efficiency.
Motors in conveyor systems need to be switched off safely, but the wiring and energy distribution involved is usually very complex, involving bulky cable trays, and complex distribution boxes. As a result, Wieland Electric has developed a new motor starter that reduces the complexity of installation and improves the safety of conveyor systems. The podis MS 5HP is a compact, robust and user-friendly drive component with an integrated STO (Safe Torque Off) function.
SIRIUS Motor Starters for industrial and construction applications March 6, 2023 Siemens has developed an innovative enclosed line of motor starters using their SIRIUS product family, placing the most advanced motor control technology “in a box.” To compliment their long standing “V” series made-to-order SIRIUS Motor Starters, the 3RE41 line offers a modular approach to ordering…
January 7, 2025 For cabinet-free installation with IP67 modules With the PDP67 modules, Pilz offers solutions for decentralized applications directly in the field. The modules have protection type IP67, meaning they are resistant to dirt and water. The decentralized modules optimize installation and wiring work. They save time, money and space in the control cabinet. As they…
Weidmüller’s scalable engineering software, u-control 2000, adapts individually to your requirements. And, the u-control is powerful, compact and fully compatible with Weidmüller’s I/O system u-remote. This article looks at what makes u-control the heart of your automation.
Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are one of the main components of any automated system. A typical control system has inputs, outputs, controllers (i.e., PLCs), and some type of human interaction with the system, a human machine interface (HMI), for example.
April 15, 2025 By Tiffany Moore Organizations are under more pressure than ever to improve sustainability metrics. How can you help them succeed — and win more business in the process? Building motor control systems with more sustainable parts is one piece of the puzzle. Control panel builders, system integrators, and design firms have an… Read More…
April 15, 2025 By Damien Herwegh Sophia, a dedicated electrical engineer in a large industrial complex, has been tasked with installing a drive system where the motor is located hundreds of meters away from the control room. Like many engineers before her, she considers the usual question: Should I place the drive in the electrical… Read More…
