High machine availability is enabled by the integrated IO-Link interface, which provides access to sensor parameters, diagnostics and process data.
Highly efficient drives for reduce energy and resource consumption
To improve efficiency of its stamping processes for future production runs, Ford Mexico worked with Altair to explore the possibility of using Altair's machine learning and predictive analytics solution to support its business objectives. Authors: John Fisher, Senior Sales Director EMEA, Altair & Alberto Ochoa Frías, D&R and Stamping Process Engineer, Ford
For precision positioning of heavy loads
Maximum productivity requires not only precision manufacturing processes, but also smooth disposal of the generated waste materials. This is exactly where the new, fully automated waste disposal solution from KABELSCHLEPP Hünsborn comes in, which has just been successfully commissioned at the factory of agricultural machinery manufacturer AGCO Fendt in Asbach-Bäumenheim, Germany. The intelligent conveyor system ensures a smooth flow of materials – with minimum use of personnel and maximum efficiency.
Detecting objects or measuring fill levels while maintaining full communication: Due to these capabilities, the rugged UB*-F42 ultrasonic sensor from Pepperl+Fuchs is suitable for use in a wide range of applications, including vehicle detection, consumption measurement for rolls of material, and stock level monitoring in dusty gravel silos. The devices transmit differentiated process and status data via an IOLink interface to ensure optimized control and targeted predictive maintenance.
The demonstrator, designed as an interactive screen with code readers, has been made possible thanks to the collaboration of ITC Packaging and Famosa
nokra GmbH of Baesweiler produces laser measuring systems for contactless measurement of geometric properties as an integral part of the production process. Since the objects being measured can become quite hot, effective thermal management is essential in such systems. This task is performed by extremely flat liquid-cooled heat sinks from CTX Thermal Solutions.
The IE5+ permanent synchronous motor from NORD DRIVESYSTEMS not only provides high-efficiency operation which saves energy and CO2 emissions. It also impresses with its material efficiency and requires a comparatively small number of critical metals.
Monitored changeover is an opportunity to optimise machines, reduce sources for potential errors and making them intuitive and quick to operate.
It is not a revelation to anyone in the industry that energy is the largest operating expense, accounting for the majority of utility costs. In manufacturing processes using compressed air, air compressors consume approximately 12% of the total electrical energy, and over the lifespan of an air compressor, 80% of the cost is energy use, and 20% is the cost of the unit including maintenance. Energy...
Air traffic and shipping are no longer conceivable without radar technology. Their electromagnetic waves provide extremely reliable signals for object detection and collision protection. What has proven itself over long distances at sea and in the air is just as useful at near range: radar also ensures precision and safety when controlling autonomous vehicles and machine booms. The new radar sensors from Pepperl+Fuchs are optimized for use in the intralogistics and material handling sections, among others.
