Three Reasons to Use Ethernet for Motion Control

Get fast, quality measurements without a large data acquisition (DAQ) mainframe system. Read tips about how to select the right hardware and how to configure it to increase your reading speed.

Optimize your DAQ system for throughput, scanning speed, and accuracy with help from this white paper. An optimized DAQ test solution can help you to realize cost savings in the long run, higher throughput, higher sales revenue, and better equipment utilization.

Elesa is pleased to announce its continually expanding range of high-quality machine components such as handwheels, handles, clamping knobs, position indicators, knobs, latches, hinges, castors and levelling feet, which will be showcased at Hannover Messe (Hall 16, Stand G10 and Hall 3, Stand L42).

Column level indicators HCK series have been designed and realized to read the liquid level of hydraulic systems that use liquids containing aggressive chemical agents, including glycol-based solutions. Watch the video! At the exhibition...

With a weight of only 8 g and a size of just 19 x 19 mm, the Micro-Epsilon wireSENSOR MT19 is used for displacement and distance measurements with a measuring range of 40 mm.

Enabling wire accelerations of up to 60 g, the sensor is particularly used in applications where high dynamics are required (crash tests, simulators or test benches). The miniature design enables installation into very small spaces. Through-bores in the housing support easy mounting.

The 1.6 MP global shutter CMOS sensor provides enormous sensitivity, low noise levels and a high dynamic range. The integration into the uEye LE camera family from IDS allows numerous new USB 3.1 Gen 1 cameras. Due to low space requirements, they are particularly well suited for equipment manufacturing and space-critical applications.

From April 2019, uEye LE models will complement the already available uEye CP, uEye FA and uEye SE variants with IMX273 from the Sony Pregius...

Power Springs are formed by winding a strip of material on an arbor and into a case or retaining ring to create a compact power source. Power spring features
retractable, tensioning and loading function. When it come position movement and high adjustment of machine and appliance, precise positioning performance and easily operating are required at first priority. 

In medical devices field, Ming Tai's power spring had been employed in Draw-wire Encoder for positioning of MRI and x-ray machines, which has gained great performance.

Draw-wire...

FLIR X6900sc SLS and FLIR X8500sc SLS thermal cameras provide the faster frame rates, shorter snapshot speeds, and wider temperature ranges needed for the most demanding scientific research applications. These outstanding thermal cameras feature strained layer superlattice (SLS) detectors filtered for longwave infrared. These SLS detectors produce high frame rates and wide temperature ranges, as well as integration times that are more than 12 times faster than their midwave counterparts.

FLIR combined this advanced technology with popular features of high-speed visible cameras,...

Micro-Epsilon's optoNCDT 1320/1420 laser sensors based on the triangulation measuring principle perform non-contact displacement, distance and position measurements. Due to their low weight combined with compact size, the optoNCDT 1320/1420 sensors can be easily integrated into restricted installation spaces and are ideally suitable for applications where high accelerations occur e.g. on the robot arm or in pick-and-place machines. The high-performance optical system projects the small light spot sharply onto the measurement object which...

With the new MP600 mechanical sensor family, Microprecision Electronics presents a low voltage position switch with NC and NO contacts. The travel between the two contacts is factory set at a distance ranging from  0.3mm to 1.5mm.

This allows two position detection without hysteresis and with a repeatability of less than 5µm.  One single sensor can be used to control high and low limits of a process, or home position and overrun position of a linear movement. 

Other Key Features are:

Temperature Range -40°C...
