The Rosemount 9295 helps end users streamline procurement, installation, operation and maintenance. Design and purchasing consists of specifying and buying one assembly.

The KEB system combines display, using an HMI, and control, via a PLC – in a single machine. EtherCAT, as a fieldbus, also facilitates connection to the robot.

The three models – the ACS-1U01-BT4, ACS-1U01-H110B, and ACS-1U01-H81B – feature a 44.45mm-high chassis with a wallmount kit and 2.5” HDD tray.

The capabilities of the T6 APD controller are on-demand adjustment of voltage, current and frequency in up to six drive/motor axes. The T6 APD controls all types of electric motor, providing automatic motor identification.

The “Measuring Point Management” application gives users the opportunity to define each measuring point in the process, e.g. label, room, specific medium, in advance.

Bulk Bag filling systems are also custom engineered and manufactured to fit the specific bulk material processing requirements

Rockwell Automation will feature its smart solutions through a simulated digital control room where attendees will have a chance to see the latest release of the PlantPAx distributed control system and advanced production intelligence software that provides real-time visibility into operations.

The solution combines Continuous Threat Detection, Claroty’s visibility, and real-time monitoring technology for OT networks, with Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) and Firepower

By CAS Dataloggers With advances in technology and computing power, modern data loggers can reduce the amount of time and effort required to extract critical information. These "intelligent" data loggers incorporate several features that allow them to go well beyond the functionality of a traditional data logger to help zero in on what the user is looking for

As part of the project and for the first time in a subsea water crossing, ABB has installed a fiber optic leak detection and subsea pipeline monitoring system detecting events such as anchor drag.

Automation engineers investigate several commonly used control structures such as “Cascaded PI controller,” “DMC cascaded to PI” and “Direct DMC.”

H2W introduced the LSS-016-04-006-01A-ME, a series of linear stepper positioning stage that integrates an absolute linear encoder into the single-axis linear stepper motor stage to operate the linear stepper motor as a 2-phase brushless linear motor, when coupled with motion control electronics package provided by H2W.

This low inertia, brushless actuator features is suitable for: assembly equipment, work holding and clamping, antenna positioning, testing, medical devices, sorting, laser machining and drilling, dynamic vibration absorption, wafer handling, optical focusing, scanners and laser beam steering and filtering.

The 32nd edition of the show drew a record registration of 129,415 people and featured 1,424,232 sq. ft. of exhibit space representing 2,123 booths and 2,563 exhibiting companies. IMTS 2018 ran from Sept. 10 – 15 at Chicago’s McCormick Place.

Volkswagen joins a host of other end user market leaders like LG CNS, Samsung and Miele, who adopted OPC UA in their operations as a step toward realizing the potential benefits Industrie4.0 and IIoT promise into tangible results.

The service provides customized alarm names, priority level and instructions for each alarm, and customized alarm recipients. Cloud Notify expands StrideLinx data services by allowing customers to receive remote notification when a process variable in their plant or machine is out of spec.

The Han Gigabit module enables Cat. 7A transmission in the train car transition area. The interface is also shock and vibration resistant according to DIN EN 61373, Category II, which makes it suitable for extreme loads in the railway environment.

Optimize MyMachining /Trochoidal provides users with updates for the existing NC program, optimized machining processes, and sustainability for retrofit applications using dynamic machine data and corresponding data inputs

The division is being formed in response to customer and supplier demand, along with the Northwest region’s lack of service providers for robot-based automation.
