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 expanded factory doubles the size of its facility and is part of the company’s strategic growth plan to increase its inventory, manufacturing and production capabilities to meet increasing customer demand.

By Charles Rathmann, IFS Servitization is driven in part by limited opportunity for many product-centric companies to grow in terms of product revenue and profits—due to factors like downward price pressure, volatile demand and increasing prices for inputs and raw materials.

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.

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

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.
