Improved sealing and greater precision for mechanical engineering and robotics
Brady Corporation, a worldwide specialist in industrial identification, launches a range of new industrial barcode readers that achieve 99.995% reading accuracy.
For industrial quality control and defect detection
Reliable object detection up to 3 m distance, regardless of angle and colour
IO-Link Sensor with high switching frequency for precise results
Easy-to-mount single axis sensor for simple switching tasks
For reduced noise and increased control efficiency regardless of motor type
When it comes to the world of motion control, it’s easy to take your feedback device for granted. After all, it’s a small part of the system and is typically tucked inside the motor housing, out of sight and out of mind. However, the impact this seemingly minor component has on a system’s accuracy, performance, reliability, and ease of integration is hard to overstate.
Optical encoder for DC-Micromotors with maximum precision
For dimensional inspection even with strong vibrations
A space-saving, robust solution with fibre-optic sensors detects seal failures, preventing greater transmission damage and enabling reliable controlled shutdowns.
Increased measurement zones for 3D distance and object detection
Maximum visibility for use in compact, mobile systems
Optimised performance and increased torque in the same size
Compact designs with a wide range of electrical parameters
Safeguarding danger zones at machines, AGVs and robots
Robust and versatile encoders from MEGATRON optimize the intralogistics of autonomous transport vehicles. Whether with integrated CAN bus connection, locally programmable teach-in function or energy harvesting: the encoders offer maximum flexibility for the respective application.
Circular connector for voltages up to 1.000 volts
Laser triangulation sensors measure variables such as displacement, distance and position on a non-contact, wear-free basis. The most important sensor features are high performance, a compact design and the ability to stabilize the signal with changing surfaces. Micro-Epsilon has now equipped its sensors with the advanced IO-Link interface to network multiple sensors in the factory.
For easier quality assurance during pressing, assembly and testing
Realising a compact harvesting vehicle with energy chains
Reliable and process-safe with optional connector position assurance
From driving a pump to actuating an injector, medical devices that provide patient treatment rely on motion systems. Dependent on the profile of the medication, the environment of use, and the needs of the patient, these devices could be disposable, intended for one-time use, or reusable. This decision directly impacts the motion system specification, so to ensure a smooth development process and quality patient outcome, motion design should be involved at the earliest opportunity.
Setting new standards for precision and adaptability
The newly developed D-Ankle prosthesis from Design Pro Technology makes this possible. Instead of the usual passive suspension at the foot components, the prosthesis assists its user by means of motor power. As is the case with a natural gait, the artificial foot is actively bent up and down with each step. The gait becomes more harmonious, more stable and less tiring. An intelligent controller finds the correct gait rhythm and a brushless motor from FAULHABER provides the necessary propulsion.
Integrated angle measurement for enhanced path following
For the highest requirements on measurement precision
Monitored changeover is an opportunity to optimise machines, reduce sources for potential errors and making them intuitive and quick to operate.
Grasping and plugging cables is child's play! For us humans, yes. However, automated processing of such flexible parts presents robots with considerable challenges. Nevertheless, the potential is huge; in terms of efficiency and quality as well as in terms of relieving employees, for instance when it comes to handling large, heavy cables.
Protection zone monitoring with adptable field of vision
For detection of difficult-to-measure failure modes, including frequent speed changes and motors with rapidly changing loads
High performance and torque in different stage versions
Space-saving single-turn encoder with flange connection
15kW and 22.5kW models in 2U and 3U high packages
Hyperspectral cameras for four GHGSat satellites set to launch in 2024
In an interview with Rob Watkinson, Customer Support Manager at Resolve Optics, we discussed key considerations when designing and supplying high quality fixed focus and zoom lenses to be deployed for military use in demanding battlefield environments.
