igus has developed snapchain 2.0, a sustainable energy chain especially for simple, flat cable packages made of 100% recyclates. Energy is supplied on one side of the slim chain in which the cables can be fixed with cable ties.

Trio Motion Technology has launched a new motion controller at SPS based on Intel multi-core processors, running Microsoft Windows alongside Trio’s Advanced Motion-iX core. The PC-MCAT-2 will give OEM machine builders a control solution that allows easy integration of Windows applications together with advanced motion functionality.

Stephen Hayes, managing director of automation and control technology specialist, Beckhoff UK, explains how control technology can play a key role in solving the UK’s productivity puzzle.

As an integration partner, Aerotech supports its customers from an initial idea to turnkey automation systems.

WEG is launching its W23 Sync+ motor line at the SPS. The W23 Sync+, a hybrid innovation that combines permanent magnet (PM), ferrite or neodymium magnets and synchronous reluctance (SynRM) motor technologies, provides higher efficiency across all speeds when compared with conventional induction motors.

STOBER now offers its CiA 402 application with all operating modes defined in the standardised CiA 402 device profile. Velocity mode is now integrated, bringing back an older operating mode. This provides the user with an all-in-one solution for both controller-based and classic drive-based applications. This complete solution is especially helpful for modernising existing machines.

Precision sensor manufacturer Micro-Epsilon has further expanded its capaNCDT 62xx range of multi-channel capacitive controllers with the addition of the DT6240 controller with integrated Profinet interface.

Those considering the purchase of a robot system now have to decide whether the best and most appropriate choice will be a cobot, or whether a traditional industrial robot will offer the optimum solution, as the experts at Stäubli explain.
