New Force-Displacement Evaluation Unit DMF-P A310 Universal Type 4740… for NC Joining Modules with Numerous Practical Advantages
 
New Force-Displacement evaluation unit DMF-P A310 Universal Type 4740…With Kistler's DMF-P A310 Universal Type 4740A… a new force-displacement evaluation unit for electromechanical NC joining systems is introduced. It is a development of the widespread DMF-P A300 NCF Type 4734A…, which has proven uniquely effective in complex industrial joining processes. The operating concept with clear, user-friendly guidance is along the same lines as the previously marketed force-displacement unit DMF-P A300 NCF. The enhancements have focused on optimizing and speeding up system commissioning for faster installation at lower cost. The integral EtherNet/IP master replaces four cables and significantly reduces cabling and installation work. Its functionality allows the servo controller to be operated and controlled directly by the DMF-P A310 Universal. Faster data transmission even at program changeovers shortens cycle times. During commissioning the system can still be run without the master control system being fully functional. Integral control allows quick and easy setting up for all common control systems without any special function block. Further optional fieldbuses such as EtherNet/IP, ProfiNet IO and DeviceNet are available for this purpose. The system comes with a Profibus interface as standard. Connection of an external displacement sensor ...

Pressure Transmitter with SIL2 Approval
 
Pressure Transmitter with SIL2 ApprovalBaumer’s pressure transmitter PFSX with SIL2 certification (Safety Integrity Level 2) has been developed according to the IEC 61508 standard. It is suitable for water treatment and energy generation applications as well as for applications in the chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and food & beverage industries. The measuring instrument comes with a 4…20 mA analogue output and two galvanically insulated relay outputs with integrated test functions for alarm purposes. The PFSX can measure pressure ranges from 0…1 up to 0…400 bar with an accuracy of ±0.5 % of the full scale. The pressure transmitter has a four-digit red LED display (8 mm high) with two set points. It is fully programmable on site without any additional tools. All parameters are password-protected. The SIL2 approval is based on the Safe Failure Fraction (SFF) of 98 % and the Hardware Fault Tolerance (HFT) which is 0. The sensor architecture guarantees SIL2 safety without the need to use two pressure switches to ensure redundancy. For applications in hazardous areas, the transmitter is also available in ATEX Ex ia IIC T5/T6, ATEX II 1G versions. ...

Patented SG hole drilling rosette for accurately determining residual stresses
 
The patented RY61M SG rosette improves by a factor of five the accuracy of residual stress measurement using the hole drilling methodThe new RY61M SG hole drilling rosette that HBM is now marketing for this hole drilling method has a patented structure, which appreciably increases the accuracy of residual stress measurement. The so-called hole drilling method is the one most frequently used to determine residual stresses in components. With the hole drilling method, strain gages (SG) determine the deformation, also called the relaxation strain, all around a drill hole, while a drill hole is being inscribed. Hole drilling rosettes with three SG measuring grids are normally used for the hole drilling method. The eccentricity of the hole is a possible source of error with this method. The new RY61M SG hole drilling rosette uses six measuring grids instead of the customary three, to further improve the accuracy of this process. The hole drilling rosette measuring grids are arranged around the drill hole, with each of the opposite SG pairs being interconnected so that their signals ...

External RTD temperature probe for the building systems industry
 
External RTD temperature probe for the building systems industryTemperature measurement – also with regard to energy efficiency – is becoming increasingly important in building services engineering. JUMO has extended its range of temperature probes for this industry by an outdoor RTD temperature probe. The white plastic housing of the temperature probe is UV resistant and can be fitted to the wall using the easily accessible fastening holes. Air chambers in the housing guarantee long-term stability and precision of the temperature monitoring. The connection cable can be inserted via a rubber stopper or plastic screw connection. Use of the screw connection increases the protection class from IP65 to IP67. The outdoor RTD temperature probe is designed for an operating range of –50...+90°C. For temperature monitoring, the sensor elements commonly used in building services engineering such as Pt1000, Pt100, Ni1000, KTY and NTC are available. The sensors are additionally protected to prevent ...

Flush Diaphragm Pressure Transducer Features NPT Threads, Amplified Output
 
Flush Diaphragm Pressure TransducerStellar Technology Inc offers the new Model FT29XX amplified pressure transducer. This rugged all-welded stainless steel sensor combines a standard NPT male process connection with a flush diaphragm. In addition, the FT29XX pressure transmitter is designed with internal signal conditioning. Customers can select 4-20mA current outputs, numerous voltage outputs, as well as digital outputs including RS232, RS485, and CANbus. The unique design of the isolation diaphragm reduces stress levels normally caused by torquing a tapered thread into the mating fitting. The FT29XX introduces zero dead volume to the fixturing and resists the accumulation of residue that can clog traditional pressure ports. The sensing element is machined from a single piece of steel, making the FT29XX insensitive to shock and vibration. This unit is ideal for metering and dispensing operations, for the application of sealants and paints, or anywhere a flush diaphragm unit is desired.  ...

Vision-guided robots help automate vial and syringe filling
 
The AseptiCell utilizes two Staubli TX-60 HE robots that are vision guided by Cognex In-Sight Micro 1100 cameras to aseptically finish and fill ready-to-use containers (syringes shown)Cognex Corporation: Machines that are typically used to fill vials, syringes and other containers for pharmaceutical manufacturers rely on dedicated machinery having hard automation. Since most automated filling systems rely on exact positioning unique to each container size and type, filling different container formats requires the manufacturer to purchase multiple filling machines, or tolerate lengthy changeovers when switching between container types. Automated Systems of Tacoma, Inc. (AST) was asked by a life science research company to develop an alternative to conventional pharmaceutical filling machinery having the capability to fill and finish all their small-scale clinical trial products with a single flexible platform. To solve this problem, AST had to develop a machine with the flexibility to be able to handle various sizes of prefilled syringes, vials, cartridges and IV bags with minimal product changeover times. ...
