The benefits of inertia bases and bespoke engineering. What is the most effective anti-vibration technique for machinery? In high precision manufacturing, getting vibration isolation right is especially important as even a relatively small amount of vibration can disrupt the working of sensitive equipment. Here, Adam Fox, director of vibration isolation specialist Mason UK, explains the benefits of inertia bases.
The new safety card PMCprotego S3 expands the drive-integrated safe motion solution PMCprotego DS, adding further safe motion monitoring functions in accordance with EN 61800-5-2. With these functions it is now possible to configure an application-specific error reaction in advance, flexibly and individually via the engineering tool PASmotion. That reduces machine downtimes, so that plants always achieve maximum productivity, despite the most varied of safety requirements. This guarantees high plant availability.
