No profile - fans off!
23 January, 2012The apt Hiller Group (apt Hiller GmbH) in Monheim, Germany, makes aluminium semifinished products for markets in Europe. In run-out lengths of up to 60 metres, the profiles are transported via giant cross conveyors that function as refrigerated tables on which the roughly 500°C profiles from the press are cooled down to 30-40°C.
Balluff inductive ring sensors
27 October, 2011 byBalluff’s latest inductive ring sensors can help whenever the infeed of small metal parts needs to be monitored. These ring sensors are easy to install and can be mounted side by side or stacked.
Balluff modular sensor mounting system
26 October, 2011 byThe decision of where and how to locate a sensor is often not made until the machine or equipment is actually being constructed. In-house fabricated fastening systems can be expensive and time consuming, so Balluff offers a line of sensor mounting fasteners for mix-and-match flexibility.
