Delta, a global leader in power and thermal management solutions, starts displaying today at Hannover Messe 2017 its various building automation solutions, some of which are already contributing to the enhanced annual energy savings of up to 89% in the lighting system of the Manchester Airport, UK and up to 12% in the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system of a major facility of Telecom Italia, Italy. The Building Management & Control System (BMCS), an IoT-oriented, cloud-ready and all-in-one platform solely compatible with all communication protocols involved in building control, and the Delta Energy Online, a powerful tool for extensive, smart and valuable energy monitoring and visualized analytics in buildings, are the two major cornerstones of our portfolio this year.
For years electrical switching devices for hazardous areas have been a focus for Pepperl+Fuchs. For Hannover Fair the portfolio for electrical explosion protection has been significantly expanded and updated.
The Standard for I4.0 Solutions: The new Ethernet IO modules from Pepperl+Fuchs support all common Ethernet protocols, such as PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and EtherCAT, in a single device. The integrated IO-Link master function allows comprehensive diagnosis and parameterization. The L-coded M12 power plug provides a current of up to 16 A and reduces installation costs. Modules with an integrated logic function can tackle autonomous applications, completely replace control panels, or deal only with status messages. As such, these fieldbus modules form the foundation for Industry 4.0 solutions.
voestalpine Metsec plc, the UK’s largest specialist cold roll-forming company providing products for the construction and manufacturing industries, has opened a Dubai office as part of its expansion programme in the Middle East.
WILSONVILLE, Ore. – April 12, 2017 – FLIR Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLIR) introduced today two high-speed, longwave thermal cameras for science and research applications, the FLIR X6900sc SLS and FLIR X8500sc SLS. Shown today at the SPIE Defense and Commercial Sensing convention in Anaheim, California, both cameras provide the faster frame rates, shorter snapshot speeds, and wider temperature ranges needed for the most demanding scientific research applications.
Delta, a world-class provider of industrial automation solutions, showcases its growing capabilities towards smart manufacturing with its innovative Integrated IIoT and Robot Workstation and a broader diversified portfolio of cutting-edge industrial automation products at Hannover Messe 2017. The aforementioned Workstation integrates Delta’s 6-axis articulated robot solution, superior IIoT and machine vision technology as well as the new Manufacturing Execution System (MES) to enable time and resource-efficient customized ordering and production. Key highlights include the new Industrial 3G/WAN VPN Router DX-3001 Series which provides effective, stable and secure industrial communication via both 3G and wireless Ethernet connections, and the compact, high-performance AC Servo Drive ASDA-A3 Series offering vibration elimination algorithm for advanced machines and motion systems as well as size reduction versus similar products.
Leroy-Somer has developed the Express Availability offer to provide clients with a reliable, high quality and performing Motors & Drives solution in a very short delivery time.
If we are to believe what experts from the CTBUH (Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat) are telling us, the future of building technology is going to rise to new heights. During the next ten years, the number of buildings over 200 meters tall is forecasted to double, and by the year 2020, the number of skyscrapers over 600 metres will surge from two to ten. The estimation made by the CTBUH is further supported by the clear megatrend to urbanisation throughout the world. At the same time, the market for high speed lifts is growing enormously. Meanwhile, safety standards for lift design and operation are continuously being raised. Starting on 1 September, the EN 81-1 and EN 81-2 norms for lifts will be replaced by EN 81-20 and EN 81-50.
In September 2017, the recently introduced NORDAC LINK series of field distribution systems will be further supplemented by frequency inverters for motors rated up to 7.5 kW. With these additions, the new series from NORD DRIVESYSTEMS will then comprise a comprehensive line-up of drive solutions specifically tailored to networked conveyor systems with many drive axes. The new size 2 systems will be deployed wherever smaller drives do not suffice and extra power is needed – for instance, in inclined conveyors, hoists, or long belt conveyors.
