Servo controller equipped with single-cable connection tech
The benefits of connecting drives using just one cable are obvious in machinery and plant construction: they include faster installation, space savings, reduced inertia, and lower costs to name a few. Following positive experiences with the AKD and AKD-N servo drives, KOLLMORGEN has now equipped the S700 with its single-cable connection technology.
Integrated motor drive offers output torque of up to 0.8Nm
The compact all-in-one MIS17 series integrated motor fromJVL Industri Elektronik brings QuickStep closed-loop motor technology and EtherCAT communications to a NEMA17 frame motor. It is now available in the UK with full support from Mclennan.JVL has proven its QuickStep/ServoStep technology in its larger 23 and 34 NEMA frame integrated motors.
AC servo drives are on top of this world
Designedfor applications that require high-speed response, accuracy and smooth motion,Delta has announced the ASDA-A3 series AC servo drive. Its built-in motion functions are suitable for machine-tools, electronics manufacturing, robots and packaging, printing, textiles machinery.The ASDA-A3 benefits from absolute type encoder features that deliver performances with 3.1kHz frequency response; this not only reduces settling time but also increases...
High precision motorised cross roller linear stages are compact
Offering a high precision series of low cost, low profile motorised single axis positioning stage, Optimal Engineering Systems has introduced the compact AQ110 Series of four cross roller linear stages have travel lengths of 15mm (0.590”), 30mm (1.181”), 50mm (1.968”), and 75mm (2.952”).
TTI signs Alps Electric in pan-European deal
TTI has signed a pan-European franchise agreement with Alps Electric. Alps developed the first TACT Switches and offer a range of TACT Switch varieties that offer a specific ‘feel’ for different applications, as well as reliable contacts with a three dimple dome design to give better dust resistance.
Valve manufacturer adopts interpolation turning
Over 40 years ago now, Ted Fort OBE, who has recently become an octogenarian, started buying Okuma machining centres and lathes for his company, Fort Vale Engineering, and now it is a global market leader for the manufacture of stainless steel valves and ancillaries used in the tank container industry for transportation of bulk liquids and gases by road, rail and sea.
Digital device designers learn how to re-image user experience
A video has been released by Grayhill which is introducing the new Touch Encoder, which helps digital audio/visual product development engineers simplify designs for equipment controls.
The future lies within industrial solution enhancements for Renesas
At the SPS Drives show in Nuremberg which took place last month, Renesas Electronics announced the availability of the new RZ/N1 microprocessor (MPU) Solution Kit designed to support various industrial network applications including programmable logic controllers (PLCs), intelligent network switches, gateways, operator terminals and remote I/O solutions.
Level switch allows user to automate sensor configuration
Manufacturer and developer of sensors, encoders, measuring instruments and components for automated image-processing, Baumer, has announced the immediate availability of LBFH and LBFI level switches with IO-Link and ATEX approval. The IO-Link interface allows the user to automate the configuration of sensors. The inclusion of ATEX also enables the use of commercially available barriers. The sensors are suitable for hygienic and industrial applica...
Matching the intensity of the laser to the speed
The performance of precision, multi-axis positioning solutions for laser processing depends both on the mechanics and the drive type selected, and also its automation controller. To achieve consistent path quality during laser cutting, the intensity of the laser and the speed of the moving components must be precisely matched to each other in order to cut as consistently as possible and in the shortest possible time.
