Siemens LDA has received an order from a Chinese customer to deliver a special machine with dual shaft extension. It can be used in motor operation with a power of 105 MW and as generator with up to 129 MVA in power generation mode.
Littelfuse, Inc., an industrial technology manufacturing company empowering a sustainable, connected, and safer world, today announced the expansion of its silicon carbide (SiC) diodes portfolio to include the 1700 V-class.
As the big brother of the safety switch PSENmech, the safe mechanical safety gate system PSENmech with guard locking offers an economical solution for safe monitoring of movable guards. The safety gate is securely locked until the hazardous machine movement has stopped.
Introducing the PVT-153-Q write-on safety identification tags from Panduit, for use with machines and equipment that have been locked out. Each tag is double-sided, made with a semi-rigid vinyl, is sized in 3″ wide by 5.75″ high, and is colored in red with blade/white.
B&R now makes it easier than ever to implement safety communication between machines and machine modules. An update to its mapp Safety software now enables programmable safety functions to be used across complex manufacturing systems with virtually no additional effort.
The new PowerFlex 6000T medium-voltage drive from Rockwell Automation delivers industry-leading performance in about half the space. The drive accepts up to 13.8 kV primary voltage in a best-in-class footprint that is only 2,310 to 3,010 mm (7.58 to 9.87 feet) wide.
We used to hear the business buzz about “Bigger is Better”. Well, not when it comes to manufacturing. In manufacturing it is about the ever-smaller mechanical, electronic products and devices. Yet the power needs are just the same or more.
Type 3 PSENopt II safety light curtains have successfully undergone the certification process of UL, a major global safety science company. UL certification supports companies and users as they launch their products and systems on to the North American market.
AutomationDirect has added PS-AMC motion controllers designed to work seamlessly with select Productivity PLCs to provide accurate, coordinated, plug-and-play motion control. These controllers are capable of up to 4 coordinated axes of motion per controller (PS-AMC4) with differential encoder feedback for each axis and a maximum switching frequency of 1MHz.
Advanced Motion Controls has recently launched 9 new models of FlexPro Servo Drives. The new models introduce RS485 and RS232 communication to the FlexPro® servo drive family. This makes RS485/232 the fourth network that AMC offers in addition to EtherCAT, CANopen and Ethernet/IP.
Now joining the Advanced Motion Controls FlexPro family are the first of their “Mini”-sized servo drives. With a slight size increase, these drives can output over double the current and operate on higher voltage than existing micro-sized FlexPro drives.
Brady has recently announced the launch of their new Permit Control Station product line. Group lockout scenarios get more complicated as more people are added to the process. And while more workers mean less equipment downtime, without the right devices in place, they also mean increased risk for accidental re-energization.
The new Quabbin data cables aredesigned with impedances specific for RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 communication applications in industrial environments.
Pilz Canada has released a new product range, the PNOZmulti 2 small controller expansion modules.
