Xilinx announced at SPS/IPC/DRIVES 2010 three new industrial Targeted Design Platforms based on the low-cost Spartan-6 FPGA family, which will help engineers increase performance and reduce time to market for PROFINET real time networking, advanced motor control, and GigE Vision industrial imaging applications.

MEDER electronic, Inc. has announced the release of their new Reed Sensor & Magnet Design and Evaluation Kits, designed by engineers for engineers to streamline the process of sensor system design. These kits provide engineers with quick and convenient access to sensor systems for evaluation purposes, taking the guess work out of the sensor design process. MEDER’s proprietary 3-D magnetic mapping equipment was used to accurately map out the a...

Now offered in 2 Form B versions, the MK24 series Reed Sensors achieve a minimum life expectancy of 50 million operations at 5V, 5mA, 100Hz while measuring only 5mm x 1.8mm x 2.2mm. At 50 millions operations, the MK24’s base reed switch, a 4mm KSK-1A04 unequivocally surpassed all other reed switches in its size class. Though ultra miniature, the MK24 is constructed of a rugged overmolded package containing the hermetically sealed reed switch.

Pickering Interfaces is expanding its range of customer focused PXI solutions with a range of new solutions and upgrades to existing modules covering PXI interfacing, fault insertion, RF and high current applications.

The first practical results of the machinery initiative, which was launched jointly by Sercos International, ODVA, and OPC Foundation in April 2011, were announced at the 2012 Hannover trade fair.

Britain is facing a future where energy prices are going to escalate and energy sources will become insecure and unreliable according to a recent report from the industry regulator Ofgem. It stated that a combination of a global financial crisis, tough environmental targets, increasing gas import dependency and the closure of ageing power stations are to blame for rising costs and uncertain supplies.

25 Years of SERCOS: With Tradition and Innovation into the Future Santa Rosa Beach, FL: At the recent SPS/IPC/Drives show, the SERCOS interface for digital communications announced its 25th year anniversary. The success of the SERCOS interface is certainly way beyond the wildest dreams of the pioneers of SERCOS 25 years ago. Their results have been accepted across the world and repeatedly characterize innovative automation concepts in thou...

Sprint Electric has added 3 phase field controllers to the product range of DC drives for control of high current excitation fields on DC motors. The new product with the brand name QLX will be introduced in November at SPS/IPC/Drives, the international trade fair for electric automation, systems and components, in Nuremberg, Germany.

One of Europe’s leading switch manufacturers knitter-switch announces a surface-mount detect switch that has been designed to satisfy a wide variety of applications where any kind of physical movement recognition is important. This includes use as a position switch for movable parts, door contacts, and detecting the presence or removal of a mechanical part in contact with the switch as well as security and alarm applications.

knitter-switch announces an illuminated panel mounted pushbutton Tact switch that uses LEDs to display two different symbols or messages. Each LP10 “double legend” pushbutton switch contains a combination of two coloured LEDs – red/blue, red/green and several single colours and one of two messages is visible depending on which LED is illuminated.
