Banner Engineering: R50C Motor Driven Roller (MDR) Controller – Compact Plug-and-Play Motor Driven Roller Control

November 4, 2024

The R50C MDR Controller helps keep control of conveyors and other equipment in one system and gives system designers more efficient control of motor driven rollers using a PLC.

Modbus communication, two configurable I/O channels, and a 0–18 volt analog output provide precision MDR control for a variety of conveyor systems, as the R50C is compatible with many different types of MDRs with integrated controls. Standard A-coded M12 connectors for sharing signals, and L-coded M12 pass-through connections for daisy chaining up to 16 amps of motor power, simplify installation of multiple motor driven roller controllers on a conveyor. With its compact sealed housing and connectors, the R50C can be used in refrigerated, wet, and other challenging environments without needing an additional protective enclosure.

Additionally, photoelectric sensors can be easily integrated to create a complete conveyor control system, detecting the leading edge of a package and enabling zone control.

nVent Hoffman: HN 3R Side-Mount Filter Fans

Introducing the HN 3R Side-Mount Filter Fans from nVent Hoffman. HN 3R Side-Mount Filter Fans quickly install into enclosures with a click-fit design; no tools or screws required, and the grilles open with the flick of a finger for easy filter replacement. There is a reverse airflow option on items ending with “R” available to push/pull air through higher static pressure, and a standard rope gasket provides a proper seal to the enclosure, as well as similar cut-out sizes as other filter fan manufacturers.

Setting the stage for seamless connectivity

Setting the stage for seamless connectivity

At the Hannover Messe (Hall 9 / Booth D26), B&R will be the first to present an automation portfolio that speaks OPC UA over TSN. And with that, the vision of interface free communication from the sensor to the cloud is now a reality. The open standard means OEMs are no longer locked in to a specific vendor and enjoy greater freedom in the design of their machines. Another exhibition highlight will be B&R’s full integration of robotics in the machine control system.

AutomationDirect: More ReeR MOSAIC Safety Controller Options

AutomationDirect has added more options to the ReeR MOSAIC safety controller family. The MOSAIC-M1S-USBC has all the features of the enhanced MOSAIC-M1S master controller module, including embedded digital inputs, OSSD outputs, and expansion capabilities, but also offers a USB-C programming port. The new ReeR MOSAIC MZERO controllers are simple standalone safety controllers that have plenty of fixed I/O but do not support expansion I/O. They are ideal for small systems with fewer safety devices. Also available is a proprietary memory card for use with these controllers.
