An all-in-one control platform for applications requiring high-speed processing, machine control, safety, reliability and maintainability. The Omron Robotics Integrated Controller (IC) perfectly synchronizes automation technology so that customers can improve the speed and accuracy of their production, simulate entire production lines, simplify maintenance, and reduce time-to-market.
Rockwell Automation, Inc. has recently announced that it is delivering an intelligent edge management and orchestration platform with an edge application ecosystem – based on zero trust security and open industry standards – accelerating digital transformation for industrial customers. As industrial manufacturers pursue digital transformation, they are looking to scale digital transformation initiatives via innovations in AI, analytics, MES systems, etc., and tap real-time intelligence closer to the source of industrial data.
Siemens is the first company to successfully receive UL listing for a 120-volt, single pole solid-state circuit breaker. The solid-state breaker concept replaces the traditional moving parts of an electromechanical circuit breaker with semiconductors and advanced software algorithms that control the power and can interrupt extreme currents faster than ever before.
Rittal introduces Hygienic Design Pushbutton Enclosures and Accessories designed specifically for the high hygiene zone in food and beverage facilities.
Littelfuse, Inc. has recently announced their new SMTOAK2 TVS Diode Series. Many of today’s high-power, high-surge-rating TVS diodes are only available in axial leaded packages. The compact, 2 kA 8/20 μs rated, surface-mount package SMTOAK2 TVS Diode Series allows electronics designers to achieve a more robust transient voltage, overvoltage protection, and lightning protection system while using less printed circuit board (PCB) space.
The new contactors are rated 160A, 195A and 230A three-phase for motor control applications, and 250A, 275A and 350A in AC-1 category. They are available in both 3 and 4 pole versions. They replace contactor codes 11B…, of similar ratings which have demonstrated their reliability and robustness over the years. The new size is more compact and efficient, in response to market demand.
Mitsubishi Electric Automation, Inc. has recently announced the release of the NZ2FT Series slice distributed I/O solution. NZ2FT Series is a modular distributed I/O system that operates currently as a remote station for EtherNet/IP, Profibus DP, and Modbus TCP device-level networks. It offers a scalable architecture that accepts a wide range of mix-and-match I/O configurations.
Publishing process and status data from sensors to cloud applications in manufacturing plants is one of the key requirements for the IIoT and Industry 4.0 principles. With the official qualification of the ICE2 and ICE3 IO-Link masters as “AWS Partner Devices”, Pepperl+Fuchs is consolidating its position as a provider of IIoT sensors and connectivity, offering users in the AWS ecosystem access to a broad portfolio of sensors for their predictive maintenance and condition monitoring applications.
LEMO is thrilled to announce the expansion of its field-proven High-speed data transfer portfolio with the release of USB 3.1 and Single Pair Ethernet connectors, available as of November 15th, 2022. LEMO is completing its existing USB 2.0 compliant portfolio with a new range of USB 3.1 connectors providing data transfer speed up to 10 Gb/s. LEMO is also extending its Ethernet compliant portfolio that includes 1000 Base-T4 & 10G Base-T4 compliant solutions.
Some applications require different supply voltages. What previously had to be solved with several switch amplifiers can now be handled by one single device of the new switch amplifier product family from Pepperl+Fuchs. In mechanical engineering or, for example, for field box installations, users often face the problem that the application requires the use of several switch amplifiers with different power supplies.
With the new firmware 3.20, new Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) functions are available for the managed TSN switches from Phoenix Contact. The FL SWITCH TSN 2300 industrial managed switches thus also support the CC-Link IE TSN profile. The CC-Link IE TSN specification combines Gigabit Ethernet bandwidth with the TSN feature set. The switches are Phoenix Contact’s first Ethernet switches for TSN and enable TSN on up to 16 Gigabit ports.
The new, communicative 24 V supply system from Phoenix Contact provides greater data transparency and high system availability. The necessary components, namely power supply, fuse protection, and uninterruptible power supply, can be combined to create an overall concept and offer advantages for users through system integration. In industries where high system availability is key, knowledge about system states and operating states is essential.
