The Engineered Materials Group of Parker Hannifin has announced the availability of a new web-based engineering tool: the Parker O-Ring Selector. The tool enables precise selection of the right O-ring material and seal size according to the user’s application conditions. Close interlinking of material and size selection delivers reliable results ensuring the desired performance of the O-ring in the subsequent application. The Parker O-Ring ...

Launching its Pro Display 10 ISOBUS, the electric control business unit of Parker Hannifin has designed this app-based human-machine interface (HMI) that includes the company’s new ISOBUS Suite application.The system is designed for vehicles and machinery used in the agriculture industry, such as tractors, harvesters and other self-propelled machines.

Supporting the ever-growing Industry 4.0 initiatives, Parker Hannifin has introduced a new series of 'smart' sensors with theP8S CPS series which are especially forfor pneumatic cylinders.The sensors feature intelligent functionality such as the ability to acquire and locally process information, and communicate with upper level controllers and/or local networks.

Compressed air is sometimes referred to as the 4thutility. In many sectors of industry, it is as important to the viability of an operation as electricity or water. For this reason, it is important to pay the same degree of attention to the optimisation and correct operation of pneumatic systems as to other utilities, for cost, performance and reliability reasons.

Two important new patents have been added to Parker Hannifin's series of ETH high-force electro-thrust cylinders. The patents are designed to reduce commissioning and maintenance time for users, as well as minimise machine downtime.The first patent sees the introduction of a lubrication port that allows the application of grease in seconds, without the need to disassemble any part of the cylinder.

All around the world,recreational diving is enjoyed by a variety of people anddiving with rebreather equipment is booming.Rebreather technology recirculates the air, removes the CO2and tops up the oxygen level. As a result, a small tank of air and a small tank of oxygen is all that is needed, rather than big tanks of compressed air.

Testing new clinical drugs’ effect on heart tissue could become quicker and more straightforward, thanks to new research from Harvard University.The study, published in the journal Biofabrication, sets out a new, faster method for manufacturing a ‘heart-on-a-chip’, which can be used to test the reaction of heart tissue to external stimuli.

The PSD stand alone and multi-axis servo drive offering from Parker Hannifin has been enhanced with the option of a new communications interface. The complete drive family is now available with EtherNet IP communications as well as EtherCAT and Profinet and can be used in conjunction with a range of controllers and PLCs.

Parker Hannifin’s Engineered Materials Group now offers a wide range of advanced multi-component solutions featuring diverse material combinations such as rubber/plastic, rubber/metal and plastic/plastic.
