FANUC America will sponsor the Next-Gen Manufacturing Education Pavilion at Automate, June 6-9 in Detroit. This is an excellent opportunity for instructors, students and parents to learn more about automation careers based on Industry 4.0 technologies.
Schaeffler has expanded its range of precision strain wave gears to accommodate a broader range of applications in its robotics portfolio, and is now offering two series for lightweight robots: RT1 for the high-torque range and RT2 for standard torque applications.
Rohde & Schwarz has introduced not just one but two new maximum frequencies for the R&S SMW200A vector signal generator, bringing previously impossible high performance to digitally modulated signals up to 67 GHz and beyond. The R&S SMW200A is first to enable flat frequency response and 2 GHz modulation bandwidth above 44 GHz. In addition to all applications already supported up to 44 GHz, the 100 kHz to 56 GHz option covers all currently used 5G frequencies, plus earth-to-satellite applications. The 100 kHz to 67 GHz option also supports planned higher frequency 5G bands, the 60 GHz WiGig band, and inter-satellite links.
The French multinational Saint-Gobain, dedicated to the manufacture of glazing for multiple industrial sectors, has found 3D printing technology developed by the Barcelona-based multinational BCN3D to be the perfect ally for increasing the efficiency of its manufacturing processes.
Innodisk, the world's leading industrial-grade storage and embedded peripheral manufacturer, is actively combining software and hardware integration, remote management, and data security to make a strong impact on the Edge AI computing market.
commModule APL, a new hardware module from Softing Industrial Automation, is designed to support device manufacturers in implementing Ethernet-APL field devices for the process industry quickly and reliably.
When working with cobots (collaborative robots) or AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles) in the intralogistics, medical technology, industrial or door automation sectors, safety precautions mean that the drive can safely no longer generate torque. Since motors cannot fulfill this with swimming wings, Dunkermotoren has introduced the safety function STO for BLDC motors into the dPro version and the external control electronics BGE 5510 dPro.
Carlo Gavazzi Automation, the international electronics group with activities in the design, manufacture and marketing of electronic equipment, today presents an additional communication interface to the NRG family of digital solid state relays – the NRG with Modbus TCP communication.
Ganter is expanding its range of indexing plungers with a technical treat. The newest addition, type GN 817.7, is pneumatically actuated and can be seamlessly integrated into automated processes thanks to state-of-the-art sensors.
