Implement numerous applications with the servo motors PMC EZ. Their compact design is a convincing feature, also making them ideal for space-critical applications. What's more you benefit from high dynamics and low cogging torques. The servo motors PMC EZ are suitable for use with the multi-axis system PMC SI6 and the compact system PMC SC6.
Modularity and flexibility are gaining increasingly higher significance in device development: Due to digitalisation and industrial transformation trends, development times for new devices are becoming increasingly shorter, while prototyping is playing an ever more vital important role. Moreover, the limited choice of available standard components often hampers device development. HARTING offers PCB connectors that meet the industry's demands for modularity, flexibility and accelerated device development.
AutomationDirect has added LS Electric servos systems that provide extremely accurate motion control and include the most requested features – setup wizards, auto-tuning, built-in indexer, and more – in an extremely cost-effective package. The L7S family of brushless servo systems is fully digital and capable of covering a broad range of motion control applications.
ADVANCED Motion Controls has released 7 new micro-sized FlexPro servo drives rated to output 60A continuous. The 60A continuous current rating is 33% higher than previous models for the same size making these our highest power-density servo drives to date. This offering includes PCB Mount, Machine Embedded and Development Board form factors.
Danfoss Power Solutions is introducing the PLUS+1® XM100 controller — its first autonomous hardware solution — to the market. The new controller is the first in an upcoming product family, which will support customers in integrating autonomy into off-highway applications like road building, specialty agriculture, material handling, ports and airports, lawn and turf care and mining.
Control Techniques, part of the Nidec group of companies, has launched a new high IP variant of its Pump Drive F600, delivering class-leading flow control in a format suitable for use outdoors without cabinets and in demanding environments.
AutomationDirect has added LS Electric servos systems that provide extremely accurate motion control and include the most requested features - setup wizards, auto-tuning, built-in indexer, and more – in an extremely cost-effective package.
From high torque to high motor efficiency, we realize that you need quality and reliability, plus the ability to easily and quickly customize your inverter to the application in hand. And with the RX, you have the perfect tool for the job. Naturally, it combines the same high level of quality and performance for which Omron is renowned.
AutomationDirect has added LUTZE SILFLEX multi-conductor control cable. SILFLEX control cable is a rugged industrial cable ideal for stationary and flexible applications (not intended for continuous flexing use) with multiple ratings, including UL Type TC-ER or UL PLTC-ER, which eliminates the need for metal conduit and/or armor, resulting in installation and maintenance savings.

Put to the Ultimate Test – Part 1: Torsion Tests by HELUKABEL
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.
