The work in steelworks, foundries and blasting shops is particularly rough on personnel and machinery. Conventional cable and hose carriers quickly reach the limits of their resistance in these kinds of conditions. The optimised chain geometry of the cable and hose carriers STEEL-LINE S/SX1252B and S/SX1802B by TSUBAKI KABELSCHLEPP reliably prevent costly downtimes and maintenance times in highly abrasive environments.
This new profile measuring instrument is a real technological breakthrough. Being approximately 30 times faster than the best standard of the market, with the LJ-V Series it is possible to check instantaneously the results of a scanned target using a 3D view on line. It is also characterized by the simplicity of its implementation, its precision and its stability of detection.

HMS Industrial Networks has released a series of new Anybus X-gateways that enable communication between several industrial networks and PROFINET IRT. The new X-gateways can connect PROFIBUS and CANopen to PROFINET IRT with fibre-optics, and ControlNet, EtherNet/IP and DeviceNet to PROFINET IRT with copper cabling. The new X-gateways help plant owners and machine builders to migrate to PROFINET without making changes to their existing machinery.
