With the ARM Cortex A53 processor, the new CX82xx Embedded PC series from Beckhoff uses a modern CPU architecture with two cores, thus offering more computing power for compact controls. The CX9240, which features the 4-core version of this processor, is even more powerful. A double main memory and 1 Gbit interfaces also contribute to the significant performance boosts compared to the predecessors.
Inductive sensors from Micro-Epsilon are based on the eddy current principle and designed for non-contact measurement of displacement, distance, position, oscillation and vibrations.
Lantek representatives will be at Fabtech 2022’s booth B6332, ready to discuss the latest sheet metal cutting solutions with attendees. Lantek Expert is a premier 2D CAD/CAM nesting program created to optimize every phase of the sheet metal manufacturing process.
The positioning systems PSD 48x / 49x are now also available with Industrial Ethernet bus interfaces as standard. In addition to CANopen and IO-Link, the bus systems EtherCAT, PROFINET and EtherNet/IP are also offered.
Fraunhofer researchers have now found a way to harvest enough energy to operate these sensors using vibrations from machines, equipment or buildings, as well as from temperature differences between pipes, lines or valves, and the environment.
As of now, the industrial rackmount systems in 1U, 2U and 4U formats will be equipped with motherboards developed and manufactured in Germany based on the latest 12th Gen Intel® CoreTM processors, boasting higher performance, increased reliability and better energy efficiency.
The new b maXX 6000 servo controller generation stands for more performance and maximum scalability. Yet the servo drive can do even more: The drive can be used as a sensor or sensor hub and offers scalable IoT connectivity in the cloud, e.g. via an edge PC.
At SPS - Smart Production Solutions from 8. to 10. November in Nuremberg, the Pepperl+Fuchs brand ECOM Instruments will be demonstrating a multi-faceted ecosystem as the link between mobile workers and the hazardous areas of a smart factory in hall 7A at booth 411. Smartphones, tablets and smart glasses provide mobile workers with almost unlimited flexibility in every application scenario.
