An autonomous driving system, the RS-IPLS features real-time data pre-processing and a “gaze” function similar to human eyes.

The recently released BFF series of flow sensors, which are available in both thread-in and inline versions, provide a switching output that is activated when the flow falls below a user-defined rate.

The encoder models have core magnetic measurement technology, with dynamic response. A variety of flange and shaft configurations are available. A water and dust-tight grommet around the cable entry ensures that these devices meet IP65 level ingress protection.

The Axiomtek’s AX92320 supports PCI Express x4 lane, four independent Gigabit 802.3at (PoE, Power-over-Ethernet) compliant Ethernet ports and GigE Vision camera compliance

Yokogawa developed the WT5000 Precision Power Analyzer to help satisfy evolving application requirements and ever-changing international standards that call for custom measurements and consistent accuracy.

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
