Interfaces that transmit data standards such as Profinet with Gigabit or Megabit Industrial Ethernet require a particularly high level of EMC protection and the best possible 360 ° shielding. In order to achieve the highest protection here, depending on the area of application (e.g. railway), the shield transmission is carried out separately or as often as possible connected to the protective conductor (PE).
Various hardware and software components are normally required in order to be able to visualize and analyze the states of machines and systems. The new Condition Monitoring Toolkit from Balluff bundles all the necessary components - and thus enables early error detection and predictive maintenance to be carried out quickly and easily.
Because of their reliable and trouble-free construction, Servotecnica slip rings are an option for equipping small to medium-sized wind turbines. They are used for the wind-dependent adjustment of the rotor blades or at the rotating transition between the nacelle and the tower.
In industry, pick-and-place tasks are mostly performed by robots. However, they have one major disadvantage: their use requires high investments. According to the manufacturer, leanP&P portal systems should perform the same tasks just as efficiently, but should be cheaper. The systems are based on the Lifgo rack and pinion drives from Leantechnik, which were specially developed for the precise, synchronous positioning of heavy loads.
Physik Instrumente (PI) has completely revised its portfolio of compact vertical positioning systems for microscope objectives - PIFOC. Significant improvements are higher dynamics, travel ranges of up to 800 µm and easier handling. The PIFOCs, which are suitable for installation in the objective nosepiece of both upright and inverted microscopes, are essential for applications in the life sciences, materials microscopy, quality assurance and the semiconductor industry.
Rodriguez developed special bearings with integrated magnetic mounts for a well-known company in the optical industry, which are required as a horizontal axis of rotation for an optical system.
