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

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

Turck Ethernet Spanner

Turck introduces the TBEN-L Ethernet spanner, which provides you with a robust protocol converter, a much needed solution for applications dealing with multiple protocols on the same network.

The TBEN-L Ethernet spanner capitalizes on Turck’s multiprotocol technology and serves as an easy way to link multiple Ethernet networks together - even networks that speak different protocols - and its master to master data exchange allows PLCs to exchange data easily.

By utilizing Turck’s multiprotocol Ethernet technology and the embedded Ethernet switch, the device can allow isolated networks to pass data between them (up to 256 bytes), even if the networks are on different Ethernet subnets or using different protocols such as Modbus TCP, PROFINET or EtherNet/IP. Additionally, by utilizing the isolated Ethernet network, the TBEN Ethernet spanner offers the ability to setup a NAT (Network Address Translation) router for up to 5 IP addresses. The devices also include an embedded webserver for a streamlined setup and configuration process.

“The release of Turck’s TBEN Ethernet spanner helps customers who are following the trend of using Ethernet technology to elevate their field I/O to a controller or PLC,” said Randy Durick, Vice President of Turck’s Fieldbus Technology division. “Many automation applications require separate Ethernet networks, and this can add a level of complexity and expense that may not be necessary. This product can simplify applications requiring separate networks with an intuitive setup, while also allowing PLC’s of different protocols to communicate effectively.”

The TBEN-L spanner offers 16 digital inputs that are available to both networks and allows data transfer speeds of up to 100 megabits per second. Additionally, the spanner comes in a glass-fiber reinforced housing with fully potted electronics and offers a IP65, IP67, or IP69K rated housing.

FEATURES

• Protocol conversion between EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, and PROFINET
• Bi-directional data exchange between two networks
• Glass-fiber reinforced housing
• Shock and vibration tested
• EtherNet/IP or Modbus TCP on port one. EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, or PROFINET on port two

• 10 Mbps / 100 Mbps supported
• 2 x M12, 4-pin, D-coded, Ethernet fields connection
• 7/8" males, 4 or 5-pin, for power supply
• Fully potted module electronics
• Protection classes IP65 / IP67 / IP69K
