The IRB 4600 features a compact and lightweight design with an upper arm of aluminium and spur gears of ABB’s own design. The robot incorporates QuickMove and TrueMove, ABB’s sharp motion technology that defines precise performance and path accuracy with the shortest possible rapid cycle time.
PLC data access module
01 April, 2009 | Omron Electronics Pty Ltd
Omron Electronics has released the Data Access Module (DAM01) — a small user interface for its micro PLC range. Fitting neatly into a communication board slot, the DAM01 empowers the user with knowledge of the process the PLC is controlling.
Digital pressure gauges
01 April, 2009 | AMS Instrumentation & Calibration Pty Ltd
The Noshok 1000 series digital pressure gauge features an integrated battery with up to 4000 h of battery life, eliminating the necessity of fixed power supplies.
Compact ultrasonic sensor
01 April, 2009 | Turck Australia Pty Ltd
Turck has introduced an ultrasonic sensor in a compact Q12 style housing that achieves a 40 cm sensing range with a small 2.5 cm blind zone. The small profile of the sensor allows it to be mounted in narrow spaces, like those found in packaging applications.
Colour and gloss sensor
01 April, 2009 | Applied Measurement Australia
The SI-Colo-GD-40 sensor from Sensor Instruments allows both simultaneous and outside-light-independent detection of colour and gloss value. The colour value x,y and the grey value INT are determined by way of the integrated RGB detector.
Pressure transducers
01 April, 2009 | AMS Instrumentation & Calibration Pty Ltd
Noshok’s 300 series compact-sized pressure transducer delivers long-term stability during operation and is suitable for use in general industrial applications where space is limited and durability is essential.
Trio differential pressure transmitter
01 April, 2009 | Motion Technologies Pty Ltd
The Trio MC464 can support up to 64 axes of motion in a unit the size of a small book. The MC464’s digital drive interface provides a plug-and-play connection between the motion controller and various digital drives. This significantly reduces wiring while providing a much higher axis count compared to what is available in comparable motion controllers.
APC Technology panel PCs
01 April, 2009 | APC Technology
APC Technology’s range of rugged industrial panel PCs and displays use the latest industrial-grade components, touch-screen technologies and sunlight readable displays to provide a rugged, reliable, customisable solution to suit specific requirements. Environments include production and assembly lines, hose down areas and food production.
Rotary encoders
01 April, 2009 | Schneider Electric
The Osisense rotary encoders are now open to fieldbus communication including a version fully compatible with CANopen and Profibus-DP networks.
PNOZsigma safety relays
01 April, 2009 | Pilz Australia Industrial Automation LP
The multifunctional PNOZsigma relay allows a smaller number of units to be used in applications that previously required the use of numerous different models of safety relay, meaning that stockholdings can be reduced substantially. The PNOZsigma relays also provide LEDs on the front that give much better diagnostic data than their predecessors, helping with troubleshooting and therefore reducing machine downtime.
Rotary vane actuators
01 April, 2009 | Pneumatic Products
The VRX rotary vane actuators from Tolomatic deliver up to 54.7 Nm of torque at 100 psi (6.9 bar) and can withstand high axial loads of up to 102 N. These pneumatically operated rotary vane actuators are designed for use in material handling, part feeding and clamping, pick-and-place operations, cutting and many other industrial automation applications requiring rotary motion.
