There are many factors effecting the life time of bearings. Regular maintenance and correct lubrication being foremost in the mind of process engineers.

JVL has now launched its latest innovative product: “QuickStep”, the integrated step motor. The Pulse/Direction model of QuickStep was introduced some time ago with great success. This has now been supplemented with the introduction of a QuickStep model which provides a position controller, PLC facilities and a serial interface with optional encoder and CANopen interface. All electronics are integrated into the motor itself, providing a very...

Burkert’s new 8681 control head has been developed specially for use with pneumatically controlled hygienic process valves in decentralised automation applications. The Type 8681 compliments Bürkert’s clean line ELEMENT series of control heads, digital positioners and process controllers, for diaphragm, angle seat, globe, ball and butterfly valves, effectively expanding Burkert’s extensive hygienic processing range for the food/beverage an...

BEI introduces the ES encoder series, a new line of environmentally sealed encoders designed specifically for harsh industrial applications. Through the use of a magnetic hub, these rugged incremental encoders are completely enclosed and sealed. The hub is installed on the equipment’s mating shaft, leaving a small air gap between it and the encoder. This isolates the encoder from high shock and vibration and makes them highly tolerant of sh...

Elscint Automation has now started offering linear vibratory feeders with CE marking. The regulatory tests have been conducted at a reputed Government test laboratory. All models of the Elscint linear vibrators are now so certified. Mr. Monish Shete, Director of Elscint Automation informs that Elscint is the only manufacturer from India who has this certification as well as arguably one of the few outside Europe. The marking underlines adherence ...

On a recent petrochemical project, ABLE were asked to supply two very special magnetic level indicators (magnetic level gauges) for measurement of either Hydrocarbon or a Hydrocarbon / Water mixture.

SKF has developed a new bearing solution for the latest environmentally friendly micro-hybrid cars. Its new magnetic sensor bearing is part of Valeo's StARS (Starter Alternator Reversible System) micro-hybrid system, which enables vehicle manufacturers to reduce the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions of their cars without the need for any radical changes in the engine architecture.

Baldor has launched a new direct drive technology for controlling commercial building cooling tower fans, that greatly improves reliability by eliminating moving parts while also saving energy and running quieter.

It is reckoned that more than two thirds of the total energy spend for industrial automation is consumed by electric drive technology and that an individual electric motor’s energy consumption makes up about 98% of its total cost of ownership over its average life. From these factors it is clear that investment in efficient drive technology is essential. The IEC60034-30 standard, making the IE2 energy efficiency class mandatory throughout Europ...

Engineers designing electronic components for use in applications where non-magnetic characteristics are required now have a new connector option following PA&E’s announcement of its new non-magnetic Micro-D connector line.
