AutomationDirect has added new pressure sensing accessories from Winters. These accessories will protect delicate pressure measurement equipment from damage caused by pressure surges, superheated media, and more. Included in the new product release are siphons that protect pressure gauges, transmitters, and switches from the effects of high-temperature media such as steam. New pressure snubbers protect instruments by suppressing pressure pulsations and spikes.
Kit (or modular) encoders are designed to be integrated into electric motors or other types of rotating machinery, providing position feedback for the control system. While sharing performance characteristics with POSITAL’s stand-alone absolute encoders, kit encoders are stripped-down designs without their own shafts, bearings, or seals. Instead, the rotating element – a permanent magnet array – is attached directly to a motor’s shaft, while the measurement module is designed to fit onto the motor’s housing.

This advanced software suite comes with Epson SCARA and six-axis robots, without any recurring licencing fee.
HyperCyl industrial products are available in Canada through Advanced Motion & Controls Ltd., such as the EMA series of electro-mechanical actuators. These are robust, servo-driven actuators designed for precision assembly tasks, plus applications not suitable for standard HyperCyl or IntelliCyl solutions. They are available in Roller Screw and Ball Screw configurations.
The new analysis unit PSEN rd1.x I/O with USB connection is available now for safe protection zone monitoring in rugged application conditions. In conjunction with the radar sensor PSEN rd1.2, you have a safe, complete solution (UL-certified) for all applications with high temperature influences, dirt, rain or steam. In addition to outdoor applications and areas in woodworking and metalworking, robot applications can now also be safeguarded thanks to a category up to Cat. 3/PL d.
Pilz is the first company in Germany to receive from TÜV Süd the UKCA certificate for the modular safety relay myPNOZ. As such, myPNOZ will be accepted on the British market even after January 2023. In the wake of Brexit, the existing CE mark used in the European Union will be replaced in England, Wales and Scotland by the UKCA certificate. UKCA stands for United Kingdom Conformity Assessment and will be mandatory once the transition period expires at the end of 2022. From this point onwards, all products sold on the British market must have UKCA certification.
Rittal has rounded off its AX range of compact enclosures with its newly developed fibreglass enclosures. The manufacturer now offers the best of two worlds: the advantages of sophisticated technology combined with the benefits of an extremely robust material. The AX fibreglass enclosure protects the electrical components even in very harsh environments. Its new mounting functions make rapid expansion possible and provide a greater scope for installation using smart technology.
Endress+Hauser has incorporated its market leading Heartbeat Technology in many of its newest measurement and monitoring devices, like the Prosonic Flow W 400 , Proline 10 and Promag W 800 liquid flowmeters and t-mass F/I 300/500 thermal flowmeter. Heartbeat is a critical set of tools professionals depend on to maintain high productivity, while at the same time keeping operating and maintenance costs low and assuring safety and regulatory compliance.

AutomationDirect has added new M30 harsh duty photoelectric sensors from Eaton. The Eaton E58 series are among the most rugged and best-sealed photoelectric sensors on the market. Their stainless steel, PVDF, and tempered glass components are mechanically assembled using Vitron seals to ensure resistance to chemicals and moisture intrusion.
Nidec Machine Tool Corporation (led by Kenichi Wakabayashi, president, and headquartered in the city of Ritto, Shiga Prefecture) announced recently that it has launched MVR-Ax, the series of the company’s new models of double-column machining centers, on the same day. These new products were developed as easy-to-use machines to meet the diverse needs of manufacturing sites that machine large-size components.
Cutting tools continue to be an essential component across many industries, as these industries expand their own product range and complexity, manufacturers increasingly demand high-quality cutting tools that meet unique requirements. For cutting tool manufactures, deciding what technology to invest in should be driven by business goals and at IMTS, ANCA will present the grinding tech to tackle now — demonstrating the advantages of investing in a technologically advanced future.
NSK Tough Steel material combined with optimized ball circulation and rolling contact deliver 26% higher dynamic load ratings and 2x the fatigue life of our conventional linear guides. Watch the video.
Within an electrical distribution system, there will be hundreds to thousands of electrical connections. These connections have the potential of being improperly installed or become loose over time which result in unexpected downtime. To minimize the risk unplanned downtime, the industry standard is to schedule thermographic audits across a site, including hazardous areas, which are labor-intensive procedures. The result is just a snapshot of connection health despite the costs and risks.
AutomationDirect has added new phase and voltage monitoring relays from ProSense. The PMRU-2C series true RMS phase monitor relays protect 3-phase equipment from damage that can occur when there is a phase loss, phase reversal, phase unbalance, undervoltage, or overvoltage condition. These relays are designed to provide protection for most generator systems and applications that use non-sinusoidal waveforms.
