AutomationWare prepares for future with new robotic joints

March 24, 2023 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

AutomationWare says it is “looking forward” to the rest of 2023 with the new version of its robotic joints (actuators) in J and T versions and UNI EN ISO 9001 certification for the design and production of systems for automation and industrial robotics.

The era of modular and scalable robotics based on AutomationWare’s J&T actuators begins and Robotics becomes Lego
Innovating the world of high-performance actuators.

AutomationWare has chosen a personal approach to the world of robots, producing high-tech actuators, which it uses both to produce robotic solutions itself (especially collaborative arms with special configurations, sizes and payloads) and to meet the demands of customers oriented towards tailor-made, in-house robotic solutions with degrees of freedom necessary for their application.

SICK microScan safety scanners now offer Fail Safe over EtherCAT

January 8, 2021 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

SICK’s microScan3 family of safety laser scanners is now offering Fail Safe over EtherCAT (FSoE) integration.

SICK says this is the world’s first safety laser scanner with this capability.

Originally launching in 2016, the microScan3 is an extremely intelligent and durable safety laser scanner that enhances machine availability and productivity due to its safeHDDM scanning technology. [Read more…] about SICK microScan safety scanners now offer Fail Safe over EtherCAT

Parker Hannifin introduces new servo drive range

June 4, 2019 by Anna

Parker Hannifin, a leader in motion and control technologies, has introduced its PSD series of servo drives designed for use in central control applications.

All components utilise an Ethernet-based fieldbus system for communications with the controller via popular fieldbuses, currently in use in industry, such as EtherCAT, Ethernet IP and PROFINET.

Due to its flexibility, the new system can be used in a wide range of applications including highly dynamic packing and production machinery.

HMS Industrial introduces range of Anybus .Net Bridges

May 14, 2018 by Sam Francis

hms Anybus .NET Bridge small

HMS Industrial Networks has introduced a new range of Anybus .Net Bridges for ProfiBus, ProfiNet, EtherCAT and EtherNet/IP.

Bridging the gap between operational technology and IT, the .Net bridge family enables data from industrial machinery to be presented to .Net-based IT applications.

The result is that .Net programmers can build a PC program which exchanges live data with a PLC system — for statistics, analysis or maintenance.  [Read more…] about HMS Industrial introduces range of Anybus .Net Bridges
