NORD 4.0 READY: drive technology for automated production in the age of IIoT

Bargteheide – Machine and plant designs that live up to the German "Industrie 4.0" framework and the similar concept of the "Industrial Internet of Things" require smart drive technology with high flexibility and functionality. The drives must be seamlessly integrated into communication networks, ensure efficient data processing, and support modular, decentralized control concepts. Launching the label "NORD 4.0 READY", German manufacturer NORD DRIVESYSTEMS provides scalable electrical drive systems and software to cover the full spectrum of tasks, from simple actuators to complex networked systems.

KOLLMORGEN

Double the performance in the field . Distributed servo technology: AKD-N series from KOLLMORGEN now up to 12 A

KOLLMORGEN expands its fields of application for the distributed servo technology with a significant increase in performance. The three-phase AKD-N series now delivers currents up to 12 A – equivalent to a doubling of output to 4.8 kW. The AKD-C central rectifier units are also bringing more power. With 20 kW the compact devices are now also providing double the previous maximum continuous output of 10kW. The short-term peak output for both devices is at just short of three times the nominal current.

PORTESCAP

New Ultra High Torque 22ECT Brushless Slotless Motor

Portescap introduces the newest addition to our Ultra EC™ mini motor platform, the 22ECT brushless motor, designed specifically to deliver ultra high torque in a compact size. With the unique coil technology and a patent pending multipolar rotor design, the 22ECT has been developed to be one of the most advanced and highest performing brushless slotless motors in its class. The 22ECT is specifically optimized for high continuous torque at low to medium speeds, maximizing power between 10 K and 20 K rpm. These motors are capable of delivering 2 times higher continuous torque than comparable BLDC motors of same size over the entire low speed range when used with gears.

ACS Motion Control

New Dual Axis EtherCAT® PWM Servo Drive Module From ACS Delivers Sub-Nanometer Performance

ACS Motion Control has expanded its NanoPWM™ line of ground breaking PWM (pulse width modulation) servo drives to include a new dual axis EtherCAT drive. The NPMPM Series of EtherCAT servo drive modules provide motion performance that was previously only achievable using linear drives, without the drawbacks of such linear drives. The NPMpm drives are significantly smaller, much more efficient, produce less heat dissipation, better protected and lower in cost.

Baumer

New CleverLevel series: Level switch with frequency sweep technology in miniaturized design for extra flexibility at high temperatures

The popular CleverLevel series by Baumer now includes another five LBFS product variants. The world’s most compact level switch based on frequency sweep technology now includes a cooling neck for high temperature applications, a long version for improved level detection in bulk media and with a process connection compliant to US and Far East standards.

NSK

NSK wheel bearing units save €58,000 in annual operating costs on a new stacker crane

High availability is one of the primary criteria for stacker cranes deployed in automated storage and retrieval systems. Downtime due to breakdowns is unacceptable as material flow becomes interrupted, which in turn means production lines or customers (in the case of finished good warehouses) are left waiting for items.
