ABB solutions help make green hydrogen production more affordable, accessible and sustainable.

Users now can tie intelligent motor devices into PlantPAx, making an immediate and measurable impact on asset availability, operational efficiency and energy management.

From the electrical variables of a permanent magnet synchronous motor, the Safe Speed Observer calculates two redundant models of the motor – achieving a safety level for the calculated speed. The virtual sensor can be used for both linear and rotary synchronous motors.

A860 Series inverter combines traditional induction and permanent magnet motors into a single 600V solution.

NUMSafe includes a dedicated safety PLC, safe input and output modules, digital servo drives with built-in safe motion monitoring, and EtherCAT.

The 220-240Vac drive provides power up to 1 hp (0.75kW) at an output frequency of 0-800Hz, making it suitable for use with fans and pumps, Injection molding machines, and equipment in paper, cement and other manufacturing plants.

Flexium+ 8 CNC kernel is for machine applications that require movement of up to five axes. It has two CNC channels and accommodates up to four simultaneously interpolated axes.

ABB has been awarded a contract to provide automation hardware and software for a major methane-reducing cattle feed additive production facility.

ABB's new-generation of low voltage AC drives have been designed to cut machine building and assembly times significantly. The drives, model ACS150 and ACS350, are designed specifically for global OEMs and system integrators -- and can operate in motor control modes tailored to the desired level of performance.

The solutions include a mine-wide electrical package integrated with a System 800xA process control system, and gearless mill drives – all engineered to operate at the 4,600 meters above sea level.

At ProMat 2007, Rockwell Automation will focus on critical issues facing material handling OEMs and end users including performance, life cycle cost, safety and information integration. The Rockwell Automation exhibit (Booth No. 1523) will showcase the company’s wide range of integrated control and information systems that provide manufacturers with significant productivity and cost savings benefits. ProMat 2007 is scheduled for Jan. 8 through 11 at McCormick Place in Chicago.

The facility will eventually process 125,000 tons of end-of-life batteries and battery production waste each year, the highest volume in the world.

ES2171 and ES2172 models each provide 16 channels of process current or voltage output control signals with 16-bit D/A resolution. Prices start at $1300.

ABB’s March 2023 Energy Insights report reveals that 58% of business leaders believe that today’s energy crisis could delay their emission reduction targets by up to five years.

Chris Johson, managing director at SMB Bearings, explains how specialty bearings support smoother movement, reduced friction and greater precision on Agriculture 4.0 farms.

VLT variable frequency Micro Drives are available in single-phase 200 – 240 VAC: 0.25 – 2 HP; three-phase 200 – 240 VAC: ⅓ – 2 HP; and three-phase 380 – 480 VAC: 0.5 – 3 HP power range configurations.

PROFINET and EtherCAT make it possible to seamlessly integrate the relatively simple variable speed 8400 motec drives into existing, high-performance communications networks.

MCA 121 EtherNet/IP card enables Danfoss VLT AutomationDrive users to deploy standard Ethernet technology in manufacturing applications.
