Whilst this growth is considerably less than the 13.4% experienced in 2006, it still remains significantly higher than that of general industry. This is mainly due to the rapidly increasing market for servo products, which currently accounts for 80% of the total motion control market. IMS Research analyst Rob Carter comments "The growth of the Asia Pacific market for servo products remains primarily dictated by the growth of industry, particularly in developing regions such as China and India. However, the Western markets of EMEA and Americas are also impacted by the spread of high functionality servo products into mid-range and low-end applications.” COMAU implements B&R control technology The Turin-based Fiat subsidiary COMAU Robotics will be using exclusively B&R technology in the area of automation. For its articulated arm robots, COMAU will be using series C5G of the modular servo drive system ACOPOSmulti.

They offer two normally closed safety contacts and one normally open auxiliary contact for greater application flexibility. When the SI-HG63 hinge switch is activated, these normally closed safety contacts are forced open by a nonresilient mechanical means (not reliant on springs), interrupting the electrical circuit and sending a stop signal to the machine control. SI-HG63 hinge switches are also repositionable, with a safety switching point that is easily adjustable (±1.5°) throughout the hinge’s full 0-270° range of motion. The hinge switches are built to withstand harsh plant environments, with each safety switch body integrated into a highly robust PBT housing and integrated on to a stainless steel hinge. They are rated IEC IP67. Each hinge can support an axial and radial load of 1200N (approximately 120kg).

With an integrated CPU (CP307-V, CP306-V or CP303-V) and a wide range of I/O boards, CP-POCKET provides outstanding potential for system expansion. The OM6062 is a cost optimized AMC platform dedicated (but not limited) for industrial automation and medical applications. It supports any standard compliant AMCs, but in comparison to conventional MicroTCA platforms, the OM6062 achieves significant cost improvements through a simplified design. Among the simplifications are: the mechanical concept (no redundancy, cube design facilitates cooling), pluggable Power Supply Units instead of MicroTCA Power Modules, Power Management and Fan Control on the backplane. CP-POCKET is available in both an AC and a DC standard version. Each with a 75 Watt power supply and a 4-slot CompactPCI backplane. The power supply provides the 5.0 Volt and 3.3 Volt for the CPCI boards inside the system. Together with the CP306-V, a fan with a long lifespan is integrated in the 4U CPPOCKET version. For applications that demand higher performance, the CP-POCKET integrates the CP307-V with a 1.86GHz processor. Applications that have need for a different 3U CompactPCI configuration, the CP-ASM4POCKET is also available as an open platform. • Slim design with 28HP / 4U / 210mm • Efficient off the shelf components • Integrated CP307-V, CP306-V or CP303-V • 20 ... 60 VDC or 100 ... 260 VAC input Voltage To round off the offerings of a CompactPCI Platform, Kontron offers a complete portfolio of plug in boards such as industrial I/O, Ethernet, fieldbus and graphic controllers. The Double-width form factor provides more PCB space and front panel space for a complete SBC (single board computer) including graphics and HDD on a single AMC. If Ethernet switching is not needed, the OM6062 operates without an MCH. This is possible due to the essential functions which are available on the backplane and processor AMC (management, PCIe clocks, 4 x1 PCIe lanes from Processor AMC to 4 AMC slots). In a single processor configuration, the AM5010 can connect to up to 4 peripheral cards. The AMC bays are fully compliant with the AMC standards and the MicroTCA standard, therefore any standard compliant AMC may be used. The OM6062 supports mid-size AMCs with single-width and double-width form factor. For single-width modules, mechanical adapters for double-width slots are available. All AMCs are hot swappable. The OM6062 ships fully configured and tested, including an operating system installed (Windows, Linux Red Hat or WindRiver, VxWorks).

When compared to products containing halogens (such as PVC), these halogen-free cables offer considerable safety advantages. In the event of a fire, including minimal release of toxic gases, reduced impairment of vision, no release of highly caustic acids - in short, significantly improved safety for man, nature and materials. For harsh industrial environments where mechanical protection for cables is critical, the SWA (Steel Wire Armoured) versions feature an inner jacket which matches the dimensions of the un-armoured types. The physical dimensions of these cables match those of standard PVC products, thus eliminating the need for special connectivity or cable-glands. The single galvanized steel wires of the armour are applied in a tension free process and are in accordance with EN 50288-1. The INTELLiGauge is a cost-effective and reliable solution. From only one measuring point they offer on-site measurement without the need for an external power supply, also meaning the operator even knows the process value after a power failure. At the same time, the information transmitted, via an electrical signal from a transmitter or a pressure switch, can be, for example, displayed on a control panel or processed through a PLC. The hybrid instruments are available with all established electrical signals. The non-contact sensors are wear-free and without backlash. These gauges guarantee extremely high reliability. The design enables the entire mechanical product programme to be used. Thus the new combi-pressure gauges will, in the future, be available in all nominal sizes (up to 160). The compact temperature recording module TI214 provides 14 measuring channels. Each channel can be individually configured for Pt100 or Pt1000 sensors and type J and K thermocouples. In the case of short connection lines, the platinum sensors with proven two-conductor technology are attached. For higher precision or greater cable lengths, three-conductor measurement can be used. Thanks to an averaged presentation of the measuring results, the measurements are less susceptible to interference. The high 14 bits resolution permits precise further processing of the recorded temperature values. All the customary process and ambient temperatures are covered with the wide measuring range (Pt100/Pt1000: from -100 to 800°C, thermocouples: from -20 to 1,000°C).

In comparison with contactors and standard relays PSSRs switch without any wear and are totally silent. The modules have a high peak load rating and as such have sufficient reserves to trip line-side fuses. They can easily cope with capacitive and inductive current spikes. With integrated zero-voltage switching, single-phase PSSRs are eminently suitable for switching resistive loads up to 20A in 55°C heat. Threephase PSSRs are designed with instantaneous switching functionality and are suitable for use in motor controls deployed in mechanical and systems engineering applications. Both PSSR 1PH and PSSR 3PH versions are ready-to-use; meaning users simply snap them onto the mounting rail and connect them. The components are designed to be utilised in industrial, process automation and power generation applications requiring protection class ratings IP20 and IP67. This range is made from polytetrafluoretheylene (PTFE) and is available in three different models. The Smoothflex, smooth bore, non convoluted model is made from ultra hygienic material with a stainless steel helix to offer maximum flexibility. This hose boasts good vacuum and kink resistance and performs well in extreme conditions. The Easycrimp hose is a low profile, helically convoluted model. This means that instead of rings, there is a helix inside the pipe which makes for easy cleaning as the product simply flows out. It is designed specially for tail fittings and assembly without de-convoluting the inner liner. The Coreflex is a helically convoluted model with external vacuum wire. Ideal for high vacuum hose applications this suction/ pressure hose has excellent mechanical strength and kink resistance. Teflon PTFE is impervious to almost all known chemicals and is UV resistant. Combined with a temperature range of -60 to 260°C and sizes ranging from 3-150mm, this product is unique and problem solving.

Designed for an array of single-pole or double-pole circuit breakers with a maximum of 30 poles in total it allows for wiring of up to 30 channels using single-pole circuit breakers, up to 15 channels with double-pole circuit breakers, or twice 15 channels of single-pole when used redundantly with two separate circuits. The new PCBs, with integral terminal blocks, offer fast and professional connection in control cabinets. The terminal blocks are soldered on to the front of the PCB: on the rear side the PCB features integral terminals. Wiring of the rack is compact and fast, minimising the risk of wiring errors. An integral pull relief ensures resistance of against mechanical strain under harsh everyday conditions. Increased efficiency, lower noise generation and improved controllers are the main features of 32 Series of the A10VSO variable axial piston pumps. Designed for use in the upper medium-duty range, these variable displacement pumps are suitable for use in harsh working environments. Available in nominal sizes 71,100 and 140 (with sizes 28,45 and 180 to follow) and with a nominal maximum pressure of 280bar and 350bar peak pressure, the optimised drive of the pump permits higher rotational speeds and, at the same time. Improvements in the housing design have helped to reduce noise levels by up to 3dB. Greater resistance to suction-pressure dips and housing-pressure peaks is also achieved. Another feature standard on this pump is the universal through drive allowing flexible connection of a range of other pumps using a corresponding flange kit. The series also offers a large selection of controllers and adjustments that increase flexibility further.

The system allows testing to be carried out overnight and at weekends thereby reducing the need for shift working. In addition it is possible to carry out testing using unsupervised or relatively unskilled operators. Robotic testing systems simplify the processes required for quality management systems such as ISO 9001 because the testing sequence is pre-programmed, and not subject to human error. Results and long term statistics are also available in real-time helping to minimise communication inefficiencies between different production processes. The testing systems were developed with a modular design concept which allows testing sequences to be changed or adapted to customer specific requirements. The JCI 140 Static Monitor features the capability to monitor 50/60Hz alternating electric field signals as well as traditional quasi-continuous fields. This enables the level of mains frequency electric fields to be measured in sensitive work areas. It is also relevant for assessing the electric fields that may arise from equipment and near high voltage power lines. The frequency response of the standard JCI 140 has been increased to -3dB at over 100Hz. This is sufficient for good quality measurement of 50/60Hz signals via the instrument analogue output. Instrument sensitivity enables the voltages on surfaces to be measured to a Volt at 100mm (4”). Noise is now equivalent to less than 1V r.m.s. of surface voltage. Prospective applications include monitoring the alternating electric fields that may arise from poorly shielded air ionisation equipment, outdoor electric fields and the uniformity of charge neutralisation on fast moving webs of plastic films.

The indicator reliably detects all liquids having dipolar properties, such as aqueous media. The non-conducting container wall is automatically compensated for, so that condensation effects on the container interior and exterior wall do not affect the reliability of the measurement. Build-up, contamination and liquid films or foam are also reliably masked. The result is the first truly precise capacitive level sensor. In contrast to conventional sensors, the level detector does not have to be readjusted either in-process or when replacing the medium. This represents a considerable time savings and helps to prevent errors. The usual regular cleaning of the sensor and container becomes almost superfluous, so that the new sensor pays for itself in an extremely short time. Designed to offer high performance and long, low maintenance service life, the new T7EEC pump is particularly suitable for use in applications where space is limited. It offers pressure ratings of up to 275bar and total displacement of up to 554ml/rev. The low-noise pumps incorporate a single-piece shaft, enabling them to transmit internally cumulative torque without any restrictions for maximum operational efficiency. The new triple pumps feature a single suction port, allowing fast and simple connection to external piping. Positioning of both suction pipe and pressure ports, with 90° intervals make installation simple where space is limited. The broad selection of displacements allows for up to 1,200 possible configurations. It can accommodate a wide range of hydraulic oil viscosities, permitting colder starts and hotter running. Crucial areas such as the gap between rotor and side plates remains fully lubricated at all times.

Bright metals, black rubber or even shiny varnished surfaces are no problem. Measuring ranges of 2 - 750mm with resolutions from 0.1µm – 50µm are available. All the functions are integrated in the sensor casing (80 x 75 x 30 mmΔ) and can be configured with a PC software program and also per teach-in on the sensor. 0–10VDC, 4–20mA, RS422 and USB output ports are always available. Two digital output ports for the evaluation of limits can be used as required in the measuring range. The measuring repetition rate can be adjusted from 2.5kHz down to 312Hz. An average determination system and various mathematical filter functions for the purpose of signal conditioning have also been integrated. The ProVU temperature controller was designed to make operation as simple as possible, with a large area LCD screen for displaying graphics and messages in plain text, with the option of automatically changing the screen colour for alarm and event conditions. The plain text feature reduces the potential for confusion that is traditionally associated with the mnemonic codes that are often used. In addition, the controller incorporates a simple set-up wizard, which automatically starts as soon as the instrument is powered on. The wizard guides users through the principle set-up and configuration procedures, including the type of inputs, outputs, alarms, set points and so on; for many mainstream applications this may be all that is required, enabling fast and simple commissioning. These settings can also be saved to a memory stick via a front panel USB port.

An active area of two times 0.75 x1.2mm is packaged in a small clear DFN package with a size of only 1.8 x 2.9mm. With separate cathodes and a common anode the diode offers a very low dark current in the range of less than 100pA at reverse voltages of up to 20V. The capacitance of the photo diodes of less than 60pF at 10Volts allows the use for light signals of higher frequency. The applied ModuS U6 process allows economic production of large sized photo diodes with a high yield and less impurity traps. Thus a very uniform sensitivity across both elements can be achieved, which is important for position detection. PR5001 has its peak sensitivity in the near infrared range around 890nm. The Abox GT range of extreme environment electrical enclosures uses an extremely durable and easy to use gel fill system to protect electrical connections even after prolonged exposure to water, soil, sand or grit.

Typical uses are in flood prone areas, washing installations, tunnels, docks and agricultural or horticultural applications. The gel is a twopart mixture designed for easy mixing and installation in the toughest site conditions. A handy mixer bag included with every box can be used to prepare and insert exactly the right amount of gel. Once cured, the gel filled enclosures are shock and fracture-proof, UV-resistant and exhibit low flammability.

An additional user benefit is a reduction in the pressure drop, which has been achieved by using 3D CAD to optimise the flow path. H Series couplings have a zinc plated finish and are ideal for general plant applications. HQ Series couplings are finished with a new 'high impact' hardening process, which gives them a silver grey colour. It helps make them more resistant to Brinelling, wear and corrosion. This DC-operated position sensor is springloaded and offers a two-wire, loop powered 4–20mA operation. Built-in loop powered electronics result in a position sensor that operates from a DC input and generates a 4-20mA output that interfaces with many PLCs, computer-based data processors, and QC data collection systems. Operating over a wide range of loop supply voltages and with loop resistances up to 800ohms, the GHSI 750 position sensor is suitable for use in machine tool inspection, go/no/go inspection, and statistical quality control info or as part of a closed-loop control system. Hermetically sealed and constructed entirely of stainless steel, the coil windings are sealed against hostile environments to IEC standard IP-68. These position sensors can be installed in hasardous locations while the wiring connected to power supplies, indicators and controllers are in a safe environment.

Employing the latest OLED (organic light emitting diode) technology, as used in mobile phones and MP3 players, the Mass-View flow meter series incorporates a digital bar graph of actual gas flow, which is clearly visible from all angles, as well as indicating flow units, fluid type and totalised figures. Also available with an optional in-built needle valve for flow control duties, it is designed to mimic the straightforward features and vertical format of the VA meter, but with the considerable added benefits of an electronic output signal, measuring accuracy as high as ±0.5%, virtual independence from gas temperature and pressure variations, freedom from parallax error and inherently safe construction, with no fragile glass components in the flow path. A new high performance laser sensor is specifically designed for optical distance measurement with direct reflecting materials, including highly polished metal, mirrored objects, glass and chromeplated products. The optoNCDT 1700DR has a resolution of 0.1µm at a measuring rate of 2.5kHz (without using an averaging filter). It comes in three measuring ranges: 2mm, 10mm and 20mm. The optoNCDT 1700DR operates using the laser triangulation principle. A laser diode projects a visible point of light onto the surface of the target object. The light reflected from this point is then projected onto a CCD array. If the target changes position with respect to the sensor, the movement of the reflected light is projected on the CCD array and analysed to output the exact position of the target. The measurements are processed digitally in the integral controller. The data is output via analogue (I/U) and digital interface RS422 or USB.

If the main connection to the internet fails, the router in question utilises OSPF functionality to automatically establish an alternative route within the network. OSPF is a dynamic routing protocol within a system that describes the status of the links between data networks. As a rule, routers are deployed in two different types of applications: they separate Ethernet networks for reasons of data security or to facilitate even simpler configurations. And, in addition, they open up access to the Internet. Routers convey data between the individual networks. Each device must be configured to meet this requirement. The administrator specifies which hub is responsible for which network. When the network increases in size so does the amount of administration needed, which in turn increases the likelihood of errors occurring. The flexible ultrasonic Primewave generator has been designed for each of the two boards to produce up to 1,000W of power when running at full power. They will deliver a real 1,000W output and not simply a nominal peak figure. For larger ultrasonic tank systems this equates to fewer generators being required and real savings to be made. The generator can operate in a variety of ultrasonic applications, in aqueous, solvent or viscous liquids, and can be tailored by the operator to produce the quality of ultrasonic activity required, as dictated by the component complexity or by the substrate. The generator has the ability to control precisely the ramp-up of power delivery so it can deliver a surge of power to jump start cavitation in viscous liquids or it can feed in power incrementally to obviate damage to delicate items such as electronic circuits.
