UltraStable US5100 pressure transducer
05 September, 2008 | Applied Measurement Australia
The UltraStable US5100 pressure transducer from Measurement Specialties features a total error band of just 0.75%. It exceeds the latest heavy industrial CE requirements — including surge protection — and is voltage surge protected in both positive and reverse polarity.
Air gap sensor
05 September, 2008 | Festo Pty Ltd
The Sopa air gap sensor is designed to be used in tooling applications to make sure that a part is seated properly in a jig before it is machined, welded or assembled. It is able to measure gaps of between 20 and 200 micron. The Sopa air gap sensor is precise enough to detect if a work piece is obstructed by a human hair.
Stopper cylinder
05 September, 2008 | Festo Pty Ltd
The DFST stopper cylinder has a load range almost three times higher than Festo’s previous model.
Heat exchanger
05 September, 2008 | Teralba Industries
The 12 m long Dimpleflo Monotube Heat Exchanger uses significantly less welds, stainless steel fittings and 180° elbows than is required by traditional 6 m heat exchangers.
Angular position sensor
05 September, 2008 | Automated Control Pty Ltd
ASM has introduced the POSIROT PRAS3, a magnetic angular position sensor in a compact 36 mm diameter housing. The active sensor element uses an internal, contact-free permanent magnet to determine the angular position. The measurement ranges are available in 15° increments: 0-15, 0-30, 0-45 up to 0-360°. The servo flange mounting ensures quick and easy installation for the PRAS3 series.
Miniature stepper motor
05 September, 2008 | ERNTEC Pty Ltd
With an outer diameter of 6 mm, a length of 9.3 mm and weighing 1.4 g, the ADM 0620 is claimed to be the smallest two-phase miniature stepper motor in the world.
Vacuum silencers
05 September, 2008 | PIAB Vacuum Technologies
The Mini and Midi Coax silencers have been developed by Piab so that users can enjoy a lower sound level when using the Coax cartridges for direct integration or when using them on the Vacuum Gripper Systems VGS or the pump unit PMAT/Vactrap platforms.
Inclinometer
05 September, 2008 | Automated Control Pty Ltd
ASM has introduced the PTAS2 inclinometer series with ranges from ±15 to ±180° in a robust, IP68-rated stainless steel housing. This sensor has been tested to withstand harsh conditions, which makes it suitable for a wide range of applications such as factory automation machines and robotics, mobile cranes, draw bridges, adjustable platforms and off-highway construction equipment.
Shock absorbers
05 September, 2008 | SMC Australia | New Zealand
Absorbing the energy produced by moving masses, especially at slow speeds, has long been an issue for machine designers. A shock absorber with a design that absorbs energy at slow speeds has been developed by SMC.
Brushless DC servomotor
05 September, 2008 | ERNTEC Pty Ltd
The Faulhaber Series 2057 motor is fitted with a high-energy rare earth magnet which results in a very responsive mechanical time constant of only 8 ms. The skew winding in combination with the laminated stator also provides good heat dissipation and high overload capability.
Solar cell production robot
05 September, 2008 | ABB Australia Pty Ltd
ABB has announced a standard compact solution for solar cell manufacturing plants — the FlexPicker-System Solar. The standardised robotic cell was specially designed for loading, unloading and handling processes in automated production lines for solar cells.
