05 October, 2008 | Advantech Australia Pty Ltd
The SOM-4430 module, a super low-power SoC (system on chip) ETX CPU solution, uses Advantech’s super low-power EVA-X4300 SoC to provide a balance between computing performance and power saving with a minimum power consumption of less than 5 W.
Moulded cordsets
05 October, 2008 | Turck Australia Pty Ltd
Turck now has the ability to mould its 6- and 8-pin M23 powerfast connectors. These connectors may also be completely shielded by connecting a braided shield directly to the coupling nuts.
Wireless temperature and humidity system
05 October, 2008 | Testo Pty Ltd
The Saveris radio probes measure temperature and humidity. The probes save their measurement data and send it to the central base at regular intervals. If a limit value is exceeded, a radio link is established immediately.
Cassette control valves
05 October, 2008 | SMC Australia | New Zealand
The VQC series cassette valves are available in three body sizes and with flow capacities ranging from 180 to 2000 L/min and are suited to many applications.
Waterproof panel PC
05 October, 2008 | Interworld Electronics and Computer Industries
The Fox-120 and Fox-150 are multipurpose, industrial waterproof panel PCs. The Fox Series fits a variety of applications and weather conditions and feature fanless operation, complete waterproof sealing to IP65 specifications, sunlight readable LCDs and integrate an optional wireless LAN with internal antennas for real-time data exchange.
Industrial intelligence software
05 October, 2008 | Rockwell Automation Australia
IncuityEMI version 2.6 is enterprise manufacturing intelligence (EMI) software. This software tool is specially designed to access the data from many disparate sources throughout a manufacturing facility, then organise, analyse and present that information via user-friendly web browsers or similar remote interfaces.
Fluid property analyser
05 October, 2008 | Thermal Component Technologies
The Fluid Property Analyser (FPA) is an innovative and robust sensor designed and manufactured by Measurement Specialties which simultaneously and directly measures the viscosity, density, dielectric constant and temperature of fluids.
Rotary air couplings
05 October, 2008 | SMC Australia | New Zealand
With the current trend for automation systems to include operations involving rotary transfer of air and fluids, SMC Pneumatics has addressed the problems of tube rotation with its range of MQR rotary joints.
Gearboxes
05 October, 2008 | M Rutty & Co Pty Ltd
SG worm gearboxes from Dunkermotoren are noted for their quiet running. The worm-gear shaft has bearings on both sides. The gear components, made of bronze or steel, and the lubrication ensure a long service life at the rated torque.
Historian software
05 October, 2008 | Rockwell Automation Australia
FactoryTalk Historian Site Edition (SE) is a software package that allows manufacturers to quickly and automatically identify, gather and analyse detailed process data from any plant floor control system or networked device.
SDR-240 DIN rail power supply
05 October, 2008 | ADM Instrument Engineering Group
Meanwell Enterprises has launched the first model in its slim DIN rail product series, the SDR-240, for the growing demand of high-performance DIN rail power supplies. The slim design of 63.5 mm in width helps save precious space on the rail and makes it 42.8% smaller in size in comparison to the previous model.
Plastic detecting sensors
05 October, 2008 | Turck Australia Pty Ltd
Turck has introduced the BCC capacitive sensor series, specifically designed to provide accurate level detection in the plastics industry. The BCC series features good EMC and ESD immunity, allowing the sensors to reliably detect the level of plastic pellets in a hopper while withstanding environmental interference.
Weld nut sensors
05 October, 2008 | Turck Australia Pty Ltd
Turck has introduced magnetic-inductive sensors for efficient and economic detection of weld nuts. These sensors use signal attenuation to reliably detect ferromagnetic components such as nuts, bushings and spacer sleeves and ensure these necessary components are present before robotic welding occurs — with no additional software or electronics required.
Networkforce/torque sensor system
05 October, 2008 | Romheld Automation Pty Ltd
ATI Industrial Automation has released a networkforce/torque (Net F/T) sensor system. The Net F/T system measures six components of force and torque (Fx, Fy, Fz, Tx, Ty, Tz) and provides an ethernet /IP and CANbus communication interface and is compatible with standard ethernet. The Net F/T system is available with all of ATI’s force/torque transducer models.
Air and gas flowmeters
05 October, 2008
The PFM range of flowmeters is for use with air and a variety of gases. With flow measurement of air, liquids, even harsh acids and alkalis, the SMC range of flow measurement equipment can provide in situ displays, remote indicators, analog transmission and digital switching. Some models are equipped with flow adjustment to permit the required flowrate to be preset.
