Combine the WAGO TP 600 Control Panel (PLC + HMI) and the WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM for the perfect match for control, visualization and I/O applications.
Machine designers can use the Allen-Bradley ControlLogix CIP Safety I/O modules to reduce panel space and setup time in larger applications.
The new B&R X20CP3687X controller combines the performance of an industrial PC with the compact design of the X20 controller series. With powerful processing, additional RAM and integrated onboard flash memory, the high-performance controller can handle complex control algorithms or even robotics applications that previously would have called for an industrial PC.
The new SIMATIC Drive Controller saves space by combining a controller with motion control and a drive control in a single device. Integrated technology I/Os and powerful communication interfaces make sophisticated machine designs possible. The SIMATIC Drive Controller brings together what sophisticated machine designs need: Motion control functions of the Technolgy CPU with a versatile drive system – all in a single compact controller.
Pepperl+Fuchs has launched a rugged LC20 loop detector that features a diagnostic tool and intuitive app. The new LC20 loop detector, combined with the induction loops installed in the ground, detects various vehicle combinations and quickly diagnoses and visualizes the data via a user-friendly app.
CONTA-CLIP has developed a compact communication module that features a Modbus RTU (RS485) interface for easy data exchange with with other controllers like a PLC. The GSM-PRO2 series communication modules operate in slave mode and can, for example, provide a PLC with added GSM functionality via an easy plug connection to the RS485 port directly on the C-type mounting rail.
B&R introduces two completely new, particularly compact motor-mounted drives. The two new additions to the ACOPOSmotor series facilitate development of modular plants and machinery. They reduce installation costs and save cabinet space.
B&R is among the first manufacturers to introduce controllers with OPC UA over TSN communication technology and Intel Apollo Lake I processors. The new X20 controllers are distinguished by significantly higher performance, additional RAM and integrated onboard flash memory.
Phoenix Contact introduces CONTACTRON pro, a hybrid motor starter that simplifies wiring and safety integration. The CONTACTRON pro has a T-bus backplane system that rapidly distributes 24 V power, bridges the e-stop enable signal, and adds auxiliary contact modules.
TURCK has launched the ARGEE 3 programming environment for its I/O devices to improve the user experience. The enhanced ARGEE programming environment is used to program logic functions inside its multiprotocol I/O devices, making them field logic controllers (FLCs). The ARGEE environment is accessible via an HTML5-compatible web browser, which eliminates the need for complex third-party software or any licensing common with PLCs.
The YS1700 Programmable Indicating Controller can be tailored for various applications by running a user program, and offers high reliability thanks to Yokogawa’s proprietary technology, user friendliness, and expandability. Standard models are smaller and lighter than earlier series, requiring less space for installation, and are compliant with international safety standards including the CE Mark and FM nonincendive (optional) approvals.
The PowerXL DA1 advanced variable frequency drive is ideal for demanding applications that are speed- and torque-dependent. Eaton’s PowerXL product family delivers outstanding performance regarding motor control and modularity.
Allen-Bradley’s Bulletin 5069 CompactLogix™ 5480 controllers are real-time controllers with Windows 10 IoT Enterprise running in parallel to the Logix control engine. The CompactLogix 5480 uses the same re-architected control engine deployed in the ControlLogix® 5580 and CompactLogix 5380 controllers.
