SSDP solenoid pump from Spartan Scientific offers fluid control for rigorous environments.
Signal interface modules provide the most compact and reliable connectivity solution for automation I/O signaling, while minimizing labor and overall costs.
Imao-Fixtureworks offers quarter-turn sliding locks for quick changeover.
Washdown environments found in food, beverage, medical, pharmaceutical, and other industries need watertight electrical enclosures that can withstand high-temperature, high-pressure spray of water or chemicals. Hammond Manufacturing and Allied Electronics & Automation are helping companies in these industries select the electrical enclosures that are well-suited for these conditions.
Using an L32 B connector allows users to replace two size 16 B interfaces — saving up to 40% of installation space. This makes it possible to transmit power, signals and data with fewer interfaces and fewer components. It also cuts the time required to assemble interfaces.
The updated EZ-Array with IO-Link provides a much-anticipated upgrade. This allows for more data availability via process data and enables significantly faster data transfers. The EZ-Array series of measuring light curtains feature closely spaced infrared beams that detect objects as small as 5 mm. Updated IO-Link receiver models with expanded process data options offer the ability to access additional information.
B&R introduces a new PLC family: X20 Embedded. The PLCs combine high performance and numerous integrated interfaces in a housing only 55 mm wide. That makes them only half the width of comparable devices. With their powerful Intel Atom processors, the new PLCs are also suitable for demanding applications with short cycle times. The compact devices can even control a full-fledged robotics application. Machine builders save both costs and cabinet space.
