Many manufacturers use time-consuming and potentially dangerous manual processes to inspect servo motors for insulation issues. If this sounds like your company, it might be time to switch over to an automated, remote-based servo motor condition monitoring solution that works around the clock.
Small motors – both AC and DC – serve as critical points in industrial operations. They may be integral to automation and equipment control and serve multiple purposes to mechanically drive and actuate systems and equipment, but are often replaced rather than repaired or reconditioned.
There are a variety of different electrical safety products that are permanently mounted, each with different functionality and limitations. They all have different purposes and should not be discussed interchangeably.
Automation continues to revolutionize the modern world. It goes beyond industrial automation and Industry 4.0 to include the commercial and consumer domains. This is where the wider IoT plays by automating tasks that were once physical but are now increasingly electromechanical.
When Colin Cartwright started as a controls engineer more than 30 years ago, choosing a sensor cable was relatively easy because there weren’t very many options to choose from. It was 1990 and if a sensor had a connector (many were still widely available with screw terminals at that time), it was either a 7/8 Mini connector or a M12 connector.
Piezoelectric motors have long been used for ultra-precise expensive motion solutions in niche industries but the latest innovations in piezo technology enable these devices to be suitable for mainstream motion solutions.
2020 will probably go down in history as being the year of ultimate challenges, but the HVAC industry experienced and kept up with those rapid changes on a daily basis. Despite the crisis, an AHR Expo and ASHRAE Journal survey showed 88% HVAC industry respondents reporting “good” or “excellent” business with a possible 5-10 percent growth.
