DCS Banner CL50 Pro Series 50mm PRogrammable Lights 1 400

The Pro platform continues to expand and now includes the CL50 Pro Column Light family. Now with limitless options to convey status, CL50 Pro Column Lights provide bright, visible indication to identify and convey critical conditions quickly and easily. Additionally, Banner’s column lights have the option to add a sealed, omni-directional audible alarm. This feature offers extra signals to machine operators when equipment or process status issues arise. Best of all, they are programmable using Banner’s Pro Editor software or controlled dynamically with IO-Link. 

 

 

DCS Emerson Improves Device and Process Visibility 1 400

Emerson recently announced that its device management software is the first host software to be fully registered by FieldComm Group® to support the Field Device Integration (FDI) standard. This is a further step in Emerson’s ongoing efforts to reduce the time and effort spent installing and configuring the field devices plants rely on to achieve their digital transformation goals.

 

 

DCS STOBER New Generation of PE Gearbox 1 400

STOBER recently released a second generation PE series gearbox that offers better performance and numerous upgrades compared to the first generation. The PE Generation 2 from STOBER is more attractive, stronger, faster, and smaller while remaining compatible with many Allen Bradley® motors. The two-stage PE units are shorter, lighter, and more compact than the previous generation, but do not sacrifice quality. The new generation boasts better performance, including up to 45 percent greater acceleration torque and up to 50 percent higher nominal torque.

 

 

DCS Digi Key DRV8231 A Bridge Motor Drivers 1 400jpg

Texas Instruments' DRV8231 and DRV8231A are integrated motor drivers with an N-channel H-bridge, charge pump, current regulation, and protection circuitry. The charge pump improves efficiency by supporting N-channel MOSFET half-bridges and 100% duty-cycle driving. The DRV8231/A implements a current regulation feature by comparing the analog input VREF and the voltage across a current-sense shunt resistor on the ISEN pin. The ability to limit current can significantly reduce large currents during motor startup and stall conditions.

 

DCS-35-Endress-0XDNFullBore-400.jpg

Endress+Hauser is extending its world-first 0 x DN full bore option to more flow measuring applications, including tough ones with line sizes 25mm to 2400mm (1” to 96”). This option was launched initially for Promag W electromagnetic sensors for water/wastewater applications, but now also can be ordered with Promag P sensors in chemical and process applications.

 

 

 

 

DCS Siemens SINAMICS G115D Distributed Drive System 1 400Comprised of the drive, motor and gear box, this new distributed drive system is available as a complete solution for motor-mounted and wall-mounted horizontal motion control conveyor applications. With its new SINAMICS G115D, Siemens is introducing a new, compact and powerful drive system specifically designed for horizontal conveyor applications.  The drive system comprises the motor, drive, and gearbox in one unit and is offered in two versions — wall-mounted and motor-mounted.

 

 

DCS Siemens New Simotics SD200 Frame Size 440 Low Voltage 1 400

Siemens announces the immediate availability of the SIMOTICS SD200 severe-duty motor in frame size 440 as its latest offering in the low-voltage SIMOTICS motor family. Cast-iron motors meet or exceed NEMA Premium® efficiency standards for oil-and-gas/petrochemical, pulp-and-paper, grain and rock processing, and other harsh environments.

 

 

 

DCS Digi Key Announces partnership w EPC Space 1 400

Digi-Key Electronics, which offers one of the world's largest selection of electronic components in stock for immediate shipment, recently announced that it has secured a global distribution agreement with EPC Space's line of radiation hardened (rad hard) GaN-on-silicon transistors and ICs, which are packaged, tested, and qualified for satellite and high-reliability applications. EPC Space technology produces GaN devices that are smaller, have lower resistance, and have many times superior switching performance compared to silicon solutions.

 

 

DCS RWs Bellows Coupling with Fully Split Clamping Hubs 1 400The BKH series is a high precision coupling with fully split clamping hubs that allow for easy lateral installation and removal without the need to move or re-align connected components. It features a stainless-steel bellows with very high torsional stiffness and low moment of inertia, making it ideal for high precision and highly dynamic machines. The bellows coupling can be used in a variety of applications where positional accuracy is of utmost importance, performance data is being measured, or fast reversals are a common occurrence.

DCS Put to the Ultimate Test Part 1 Torsion Tests by HELUKABEL 1 400x275

Cables and wires in industrial robots and other moving machine parts are often required to withstand extreme stresses caused by torsion. Constant repetitive movements put materials under considerable strain. At the same time, operators expect components to function perfectly and reliably throughout their entire service life to avoid disruptions, outages and safety hazards.

For this reason, at HELUKABEL, we simulate intensive and continuous torsion stresses under realistic conditions with our high-tech testing equipment in Windsbach. We have several types of apparatus for doing this because some of our customers, for example those in the automotive industry, have very precise specifications for how a torsion test is carried out. The tests show that our cables and wires withstand speeds up to 1,000°/s, accelerations up to 2,000°/s² and torsion angles up to 720°. Hence, we make sure that each product always meets our customers’ high standards, and that they receive the impeccable quality they rightly expect from us as a leading supplier of cables, wires and accessories for more than 40 years.

What Is Torsion?
