Rockwell Automation: GuardShield Safety Light Curtains

Production personnel can work safely and efficiently using the new Allen-Bradley 450L Perimeter Access Control (PAC) GuardShield safety light curtains from Rockwell Automation. Subject to risk assessment, light curtains eliminate the need for hard guarding and gates, while allowing frequent, easier and safe access to hazardous areas. Designed for whole-body detection, PAC light curtains are typically positioned around an area or in front of a machine entry or exit that poses a moderate to high risk of operator injury.

HELUKABEL: Durable Connection Cables for Flexible Monitors

In a southern Germany hospital, 225 patient beds were equipped with new flexible monitors, making the screen position easy to change. However, due to poor quality cabling, the monitors did not withstand the stresses associated with everyday use. HELUKABEL took a closer look at the problem and found a solution by supplying a much stronger cable with greater durability that is typically applied to machine control panels.

Beckhoff: TwinCAT Controller Redundancy

Plant availability plays a crucial role in the process industry in particular, so building redundancy into automation technology designs is vital. This is why Beckhoff expanded its extensive range of solutions in this area to also include a software solution for redundant control operation: TwinCAT Controller Redundancy. While the robust design of the company’s Industrial PCs alone already ensures a high level of availability, Beckhoff is now expanding its product portfolio.

Omron: ZEN-20C Programmable Relay Unit

Introducing the ZEN-20 I/O from Omron, a 12 Input and 8 Output relay/transistor in one unit. With the Zen-20 I/O programmable relay unit, you can do a lot of larger scale automation where the 10 I/O versions fall short. The 20 I/O unit is available in three different versions: starting with the C1 with LCD display, control/program buttons, calender and clock, then the C2 with LED status indication, and finally the C3 with the same functionality as the C1 but with a fixed I/O.

ABB: Ty-Rap Tygenic Antimicrobial Detectable Cable Ties

The cost of contamination can add up, averaging between $10-30 million in direct costs of a recall, plus lost sales, customer confidence and more. In facilities where bacteria reduction and detectability are critical, a standard cable tie may go unidentified in product and its notched design can be a home for microorganisms. ABB has expanded its line of Ty-Rap cable ties with Ty-Rap TyGenic cable ties, the industry’s first two-piece antimicrobial and detectable cable tie.
