Servo drive reference model to launch at embedded word 2020
Toshiba Electronics has announced that it will launch its modular Servo Drive Reference Model (RM) Multi-Channel Motor Control reference platform at this year’s Embedded World exhibition under the banner of 'The Journey of Motor Control'.
Innovations in SCARA robots boost performance and reliability
As Yamaha Motor Europe, Factory Automation Section explain, SCARA robots can automate and accelerate pick-and-place and small assembly processes such as transferring workpieces between processes, screwdriving, and dispensing. They can also perform functional testing such as activating buttons.
Processor with neural unit for advanced machine learning
NXP Semiconductors has expanded its EdgeVerse portfolio with the i.MX 8M Plus application processor, the first i.MX family to integrate a dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) for advanced machine learning inference at the industrial and IoT (Internet-of-Things) edge.
Process control valves – making the right choice
Modern process control valves offer a wide range of features and benefits for industries that require precise control over fluids, steam and other gases. With so many control valves on the market, it is important to establish the features that will deliver the most cost-effective design for a particular application.Damien Moran, Field Segment Manager, Hygienic - Pharmaceutical at Bürkert, looks at some of the basic differentiators as well as...
Commutation encoder supports BLDC motor shafts
CUI Devices’ Motion Group has announced the introduction of a new model to its AMT commutation encoder family that supports larger motor shaft sizes from nine to 15.875mm. The AMT33 series generates standard U/V/W communication signals for commutating brushless dc motors in industrial, automation, robotics, and renewable energy applications.
Miniaturised controller for single and multi-axis
Maxon has announced that it is launching a new, miniaturised controller with a size of only 32x22mm as part of its successful line of positioning controllers. The price-performance ratio, with a functionality that's virtually identical to the larger units, addresses cost-sensitive single- and multi-axis applications.
Linear motor feedback encoders get safety certified
SICK has released safety-certified versions of its TTK70 and TTK50 magnetic absolute linear motor feedback encoders with Hiperface interface, widening the opportunities for accurate, absolute motor feedback systems to be integrated into safe linear drives.
Ultra-precise innovative inductive angle encoders
Precision motion control specialist company INMOCO has introduced a new solution for measuring angular position in extreme environments where potentiometers or capacitive devices may prove unreliable. The non-contact Celera Motion Zettlex IncOder can be described as an inductive angle encoder and works like a transformer.
Space saving illuminated tact switch with RGB-LED and IP67
Knitter-switch has extended its product range of illuminated tact switches. The TSLE/TSSLE 6868 series are illuminated tact switches with a lot of high-quality features in a space saving design. Because of this a lot of different applications like multimedia equipment, computer accessories, measurement instrumentation, industrial automation or medical technology are possible.
Cost reduction through efficient energy-saving motors
At SPS 2019 in Nuremberg, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS presented a new synchronous motor with a significant higher energy efficiency (IE5+). This new motor can be supplied without a fan and with very smooth surfaces. It can be combined with the nsd tupH surface treatment. It is therefore optimally suited for use in intralogistics and wash-down applications.The new IE5+ synchronous motors are suitable for intralogistics and wash-down applications as a system...
