E-T-A Circuit Breaker/Switch Combination 3120


E-T-A Circuit Breakers is pleased to announce the availability of two new connectors for its well-known 3120 circuit breaker product series - making E-T-A the first circuit breaker manufacturer to offer customers a circuit breaker/switch combination with push-in terminal (3120-PT) or plug-in (Y31214001) wire termination options when installing circuit protection into their designs. 

 Push-in Terminal Connector 
  • Sold as a single component with the appropriate 3120 configurations. (PT specified in terminal configuration of 3120 part number) 
  • Designed for solid wire or wire ferrules, on stranded wire, for correct connection. 
  • When the wire is pushed in, the contact spring opens automatically and provides the required force for a secure connection – 100% protected against brush contact. 
  • In the event the circuit breaker needs to be replaced, the wires are easily released with a standard screw driver. 

Plug-in Connector
  • Sold as an accessory part for the 3120 (part number Y31214001) 
  • Touch-safe connection 
  • Two retaining clips ensure a tight connection between the plug-in connector harness (Y31214001)and the 3120 circuit breaker. 
  • The connector accommodates many 0.250 quick connects available on the market today including: Stocko RSB 7916 F6,3-1, Klaucke Type 2730, Vogt Type 3832d.67, TE FASTON Terminals 250 Series and Delphi Packard 58 Series.

NSK Motorized Ball Screw Actuator


NSK has developed a space-saving design by integrating a precision ground ball screw directly into a NEMA 17 stepper motor. This solution eliminates the need for a motor coupling reducing assembly time. The use of a precision ground screw versus a lead screw delivers higher efficiency, lower friction, smoother operation, no backlash, improved rigidity and longer life. 


FEATURES 
  • Elimination of motor coupling results in compact space-saving design and reduced assembly time 
  • Compared to a lead screw, a precision ground ball screw offers higher efficiency, lower friction, smoother operation, no backlash, improved rigidity, and longer life
  • The higher ball screw efficiency can result in a smaller required motor package, reducing energy usage
  • Available with configurable encoder assembled to motor
  • Easy disconnect - field replacement of motor and/or ball screw is simplified, saving time and money
  • Motor and ball screw are combined into a single part number for ease of design and ordering. Standard Sizes Available for N

Turck Compact PROFIsafe / PROFINET Block I/O Module


Turck introduces the TBPN safety block I/O module, which is the first block I/O module to combine both standard and safety inputs/outputs in a single device. The IP67 hybrid modules can be adapted to the specific signal requirements in the machine, and in doing so, it saves valuable space and greatly reduce overall systems costs of their machines.

FEATURES

  • PROFINET slave 
  • Integrated Ethernet switch
  • 100 Mbps supported
  • 2 x M12, 4-pin, D-coded, Ethernet fieldbus connection
  • Glass-fiber reinforced housing
  • Shock and vibration tested
  • Potted module electronics
  • Protection classes IP67 / IP69K
  • 7/8" connector for power supply, 5-pin
  • Two safe digital SIL3-inputs
  • 2 save digital SIL3 channels as FDI or FDO (PP, PM)
  • 4 non-safe digital I/O channels
  • 2 IO-Link Master V1.1 slots



SMC Pneumatics ISA3 Digital Gap Checker


SMC Pneumatics ISA series is a non-contact style air catch sensor for applications requiring confirmation of work present for machining operations. Due to the construction of the sensor, fluctuations in the supply pressure does not influence operations. The ISA series is IP66 rated and is dust proof and drip proof. 

FEATURES
  • Simple setting
  • Energy saving 
  • Improved drainage resistance 
  • Easy maintenance

SMC Pneumatics Four Axis Step Motor Controller


SMC Pneumatics has added an Ethernet/IP version to their JXC series of 24VDC step motor controllers. Four electric actuators can be controlled within one package, simplifying wiring and economizing space. Further, the coordination of complex movements has been added. These movements include 2-axis arc or circular interpolation, 3-axis linear interpolation, and 4-axis synchronous positioning. 

FEATURES 
  • Linear/circular interpolation
  • Positioning/pushing operation
  • Step data input (max. 2048 points)
  • Space saving, reduced wiring
  • 4-axis synchronous control
  • Absolute/relative position coordinates instructions
  • EtherNet/IP or Parallel I/O

IDEC SE2L Safety Laser Scanner


The new SE2L safety sensor from IDEC ensures the safety of humans in a hazardous area, or those approaching the machine. One SE2L protects a wide area (270° and 5m) and can be used in a variety of applications such as large-sized systems or long conveyor lines. The stop area can be made smaller by detecting approach at the additional protection zone to start slowdown (conventional configuration of one protection zone + two warning zones is possible). 

An SE2L can monitor two separate hazardous areas to stop machines when detecting the access of humans. No reflective sensor is necessary, thus eliminating the need of optical axis alignment. Can replace two light curtains. The reference monitoring function ensures safety by detecting the positional change of SE2L or reference boundary, such as a door's opening/closing status. 

A maximum of four SE2Ls can be interconnected using RS-485 connectors for master/slave operation. 

 FEATURES 
  • A maximum of 32 are patterns can be configured/switched
  • EDM function monitors the status of external devices
  • Muting function allows objects to enter the hazardous area without stopping the machine
  • Operational status displayed on SE2L as well as PC to monitor errors and data log\Video of detection status can be replayed on PC
  • Checks dust in air with signals to and reduces unintended detection
