DC motors for the food industry
01 April, 2009 | M Rutty & Co Pty Ltd
The BG65 motors from Dunkermotoren have smooth housings in order that machinery and facilities manufacturers working within the food and beverage industry are able to capitalise on the advantages of electronically commutated DC motors.
BCM load cells
01 April, 2009 | Bestech Australia Pty Ltd
The model 3417/3497 single-ended shear beam load cells from BCM Sensors are low-profile, high-precision load cells based on the shear-beam working principle. These load cells can find applications in hopper scales and platform scales, or can be used to measure beam bending loads.
Modbus gateways
01 April, 2009 | Advantech Australia Pty Ltd
The EKI-1220 series Modbus Gateways are designed for quick and easy integration of Modbus serial devices with industrial ethernet networks. Available in two configurations, the EKI-1221 and EKI-1222 feature one or two RS232/422/485 serial ports, with redundant 10/100 Mbps ethernet connections, for transparently connecting Modbus ASCII/RTU and Modbus/TCP devices and equipment.
Compressed air filters
01 April, 2009 | SMC Australia | New Zealand
Mainline filtration provides the source of clean air direct from compressor installations. It is essential that correct filtration is installed to ensure clean compressed air is provided to processes.
Linear axis
01 April, 2009 | Festo Pty Ltd
The EGC electric linear axis offers efficiency, maximum dynamic response and improved rigidity. The EGC electric linear axis is now available as a toothed belt drive or spindle drive. These new axes are easily integrated into the Festo multi-axis modular system and are also suitable for both stepper and servo motors.
Parallel actuator controller
01 April, 2009 | LINAK Australia Pty Ltd
The TR-EM-239 parallel controller is designed to drive two actuators in parallel. It is suitable for 12-24 VDC motors each with a maximum of 10 A capacity and in applications where parallel movement is required — for example, across a bench, hatch, door, slide, transfer, directional guide or conveyor line.
