Bel Power Solutions recently announced the TET2200 Series, 2200 W power supplies that bring Titanium level efficiency to servers, storage and networking equipment. With AC-DC power-factor-corrected (PFC) and high voltage DC-input variants, TET2200 Series power supplies provide a main output of 12 VDC for powering intermediate bus architectures (IBA).
Emerson has recently signed a joint commercialization agreement with Integra CMS, a specialty consulting company focusing on specification and implementation of continuous pharmaceutical manufacturing systems, to provide comprehensive technologies and services for continuous processes. The two companies aim to quicken adoption of continuous manufacturing processes throughout the industry.
Emerson has recently introduced a wireless automatic recovery module (ARM) for its AVENTICS G3 electronic fieldbus platform that makes it easy for technicians to perform pneumatic valve system commissioning and diagnostics from a mobile phone, tablet or laptop computer.
In aircraft construction, exceptional component quality and precision are crucial, for obvious reasons. However, sheet-metal aircraft parts are often extremely large, making machining and handling problematic. Working closely with CNC specialist Penta-Tec and with milling specialist A&T – a company that supplies Premium Aerotec, an Airbus subsidiary, with structural components – Harmuth CNC-Frästechnik has built large-format milling machines that use PC-based control technology from Beckhoff to successfully overcome these challenges.
The convergence of machine learning and industrial automation gives access to unprecedented capabilities. All inputs, outputs and internal data made available by the automation controller can be processed by a SVM algorithm in TwinCAT 3. This can improve the quality of the produced goods but also allows to make a classification of the machine’s state of operations.
The open format ONNX is integrated into TwinCAT 3 and supports data scientists and automation engineers to cooperate more efficiently. The neural network models are developed with well-known machine learning frameworks and passed on to TwinCAT 3 using the ONNX standard format.
Rockwell Automation has recently introduced an updated version of its Industrial Data Center (IDC). The latest generation IDC offers increased physical security with the addition of a badge scanner to the front and back door for monitored access. A new switch platform also helps improve reliability and maintainability.

FACTS Engineering, the manufacturer of Productivity PLCs for AutomationDirect, has successfully received ABS (American Bureau of Shipping) certification for Productivity2000 and Productivity3000 PLCs. ABS is a provider of classification and technical advisory services to the marine and offshore industries and is focused on safe and practical application of advanced technologies and digital solutions.
Designed for harsh applications, the sealed ZMW Series snap-acting switch features a long stroke for highly reliable actuation.
The AX8000 multi-axis servo system from Beckhoff now offers oversampling technology in addition to extremely high dynamics and μs cycle times. Oversampling technology via EtherCAT enables process data scans several times within a communication cycle. This significantly boosts performance for precision processing machines and other systems that require evaluation of high-resolution measured values.
SKL shield clamps from icotek are easy to use and effective in earthing single cable shields. Shield clamps can be easily attached via rivet.
Introducing the iSmart Intelligent Relay from IMO, a new relay system used for several applications.
The Bitronics M871 (Single Line, Dual Bus) and M872 (Dual Line, Dual Bus) IEDs provide a complete solution for monitoring and recording in substation applications. They provide a scalable, low-cost distributed disturbance recording solution that meets all three PRC-002 requirements in a single unit and supports peer-to-peer GOOSE messaging for cross-triggering without hard-wired contacts.
After a lengthy period of connector manufacturers pursuing various approaches with regard to M12 PushPull locks, IEC 61076-2-010 is now finally bringing a system that is consistent across the industry. Or at least that is the opinion held by Dirk-Peter Post, Head of Global Product Management Circular Interface Connectors, Harting Electronics, and Jürgen Sahm, Senior Specialist Product Marketing Circular Connectors, Phoenix Contact, in this interview.
TTI, Inc., a distributor of electronic components, was pleased to recently introduce a suite of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), making it possible for engineering and procurement customers to access inventory, pricing information, and place orders in real time.
