TIA Portal V17: What’s the big deal?
Have you ever encountered a crowbarred power supply?
Why Should You Continuously & Remotely Monitor Vibration?
PR Electronics designs and produces signal conditioning (interface) devices for the process and factory automation industries within temperature, intrinsically safe (I.S.) interfaces, panel meters, signal isolators and converters. They specialize in making industrial process control safer, more reliable, and more efficient.
Rollon linear actuators with different guide configurations and drives, available with belt, screw or rack and pinion drives according to different needs in terms of precision and speed. Guides with bearings or ball recirculating systems for different load capacities and critical environments. A couple of the highlighted items are:
Rollon Compact Rail is a linear system consisting of steel linear rails with induction hardened raceways and high precision radial ball bearing sliders, also made of hardened steel. Thanks to their self-aligning capabilities, Compact Rail linear guides simplify the project, improve the performance and reduce the overall cost of application. Compact Rail linear guides are easy to install on all types of surfaces, including non-machined ones.
Are you looking for a warning signal indicator that is robust yet inexpensive with a wide array of sizes and types? Qlight has a complete portfolio from small 50mm LED lights to large 180mm Xenon Strobe lights in various voltages and colors. Many of the options can also have a buzzer built-in to add additional functionality. With illumination options of simple on/off, flashing, rotating, strobe, or all of the above in one unit, there is something for every application. There is also a new multi-color unit that can display seven different colors using 3 wires.
The new SIMATIC Drive Controller saves space by combining a safety PLC, motion controller and drive control in a single device.
Safe, automatic door operation on industrial machines has continued to be a challenge for manufacturing plants. Customer feedback has indicated, if a door was automated at all, past solutions involving pneumatic pistons prove to be unsafe, unreliable and require lots of maintenance. These technical and safety challenges combined with the increased use of collaborative robots parts tending applications reinforces the need for an automated, safe and reliable method of solving machine door automation. The SIDOOR solution from Siemens is easy to install/setup/maintain and increases operator safety. Check out this video where Rich and Dan discuss these advantages in more detail.
