The Multi-Carrier-System, a configurable transport system, has been announced by Siemens. In this configurable transport system, the transport carriages, which are driven by linear motors, are flexibly moved to the individual units such as a filling, closing or labeling unit.
Hygienic Design enclosures from Rittal Systems are engineered to prevent water damage and offer ultimate protection against contamination, making them suitable for the food and beverage industry.
Applied Motion Products has introduced a closed-loop linear actuator that creates peak torques up to 50 percent higher than holding torque. TBSM11 linear actuators are said to accelerate and decelerate faster, and only draw current when needed to run cooler and more quietly than conventional step motor-based linear actuators.
Hoskin Scientific has introduced Bronkhorst EL-FLOW Prestige line of mass flow meters/controllers for gases. The latest generation has benefits based upon further advances in flow-signal processing and a highly stable flow control regime that is virtually impervious to process fluctuations, the company says.
AutomationDirect has added complete vortex cooler assemblies to its enclosure thermal management lineup. New Stratus vortex cooler kits include everything needed to implement enclosure cooling.
The optoNCDT 1420 smart laser triangulation displacement sensor from Hoskin Scientific is said to offer a unique combination of speed, size, performance and application versatility for displacement, distance and position measurements.
The TTFM 6.1 transit-time flow meter from Greyline Instruments has been introduced with what are said to be powerful new digital signal processing and advanced algorithms that provide easy and accurate flow measurement of clean and relatively clean fluids (water, oil, chemicals).
All Weather LCD Monitors from Stealth•Com are sunlight readable and suitable for use in indirect sunlight or high ambient light conditions. Units are rated up to 1,600 Nits (Cd/m2) of brightness.
