What would you expect to pay for a PLC with built-in data logging, integrated motion control, customizable communications ports, and expansion capabilities? If you said a few thousand, then you are definitely in the right place. If you said a few hundred, then you’ve been here before! The BRX PLC platform, with the proven Do-more! DM1 technology, raises the bar on getting the most out of your PLC dollar.
Dura-Con / Cinch Connectivity Solutions Micro-D Connector Savers are designed to significantly reduce damage to already mounted Dura-Con Connectors during routine system tests. Dura-Con / Cinch Micro-D Connector Savers eliminate the numerous mating and unmating cycles experienced by connectors on test harnesses. Connector Savers are available in all-plastic or in a metal shell.
SCHURTER recently introduced the FMBC EP double-stage filter family for 3 phase systems. The filter packs in high performance in a compact package, ideally suited for today’s space constrained machine and industrial plant construction. Versions with high nominal voltages are particularly suited for a wide field of applications. Space is scarce in control cabinets for 3-phase industrial applications.
Datalogic was recently pleased to announce the new S8 IO-Link sensor models. These sensors come in two models, featuring specific advantages: for example, the S8-B53 model features a polarized retro-reflective function with coaxial optics and laser emission, representing the best solution for customers needing to rely on a high detection precision at long distance, including on very small objects.
The Optoelectronics group of Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today introduced the industry’s first 4-quadrant silicon PIN photodiode in a standard surface-mount package, qualified for automotive applications. Combining high photo sensitivity with low 0.1 % crosstalk and virtually no tolerance between its segments, the Vishay Semiconductors K857PE enables a variety of sensor and control applications for the automotive, consumer, and industrial markets.
Bel Power Solutions announces the ABC601 Series of open frame power supplies which are ideal for both industrial and medical applications and are available in a variety of single output voltages. The ABC601 Series provides a steady 600 W of regulated DC power through the full 85 to 305 VAC input range with 800 W, 10 s peak capability. The series comes in 24, 28, 36 and 48 VDC standard output voltages and in two packages, U-frame chassis or enclosed, with a front-mounted fan, offering 12 and 5 VSB standby outputs and a full set of protection features.
Beckhoff offers a machine learning (ML) solution that is seamlessly integrated into TwinCAT 3. Building on established standards, it brings to ML applications the advantages of system openness familiar from PC-based control. In addition, the TwinCAT solution supports the execution of the machine learning models in real time. Its capabilities provide machine builders with an optimum foundation for enhancing machine performance.
The new ELM72xx EtherCAT Terminals are fully functional servo drives in a robust metal housing 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.
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.
The comprehensive power supply portfolio offers single-phase and 3-phase DIN rail power supply units with output currents from 2.5 A to 40 A: from the PS1000 series for small, cost-optimized applications and the PS2000 series for the commonest standard applications to the PS3000 series for demanding 24 and 48 V DC applications.
Backed by a wealth of expertise in the development of rotary servomotors, Beckhoff has added an innovative product to its portfolio in the area of drive technology. This new generation of high‐performance and modular linear motors was developed in cooperation with its dynamically growing subsidiary Fertig Motors. The new AL8000 product family is based on a modular system design consisting of linear motors and magnetic plates.
The new Allen-Bradley Guardmaster 440G-EZ electromagnetic interlocking switch can help protect people, processes and equipment. By providing the physical interlocking of guard doors, the safety switch allows access to a potentially hazardous area only when the area is safe. This can help keep people safe and protect a process from unplanned downtime to improve productivity and efficiency.
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.
Expansion modules snap onto the side of any BRX Micro PLC Unit (MPU) or BRX Remote I/O controller. Newly added BRX discrete I/O modules include 5, 8, and 16-point relay output modules (starting at $55) with Form A (SPST) and Form C (SPDT) options; 16-point 2-5 VDC discrete input and output modules (starting at $55); a 16-point 2-5 VDC discrete combination input/output module, etc.
