SMC's MACM contributes to space saving on conveyor lines.  Heavy workpieces can now be aligned and positioned with small cylinders, resulting in compact conveyor lines.

Workpieces can be moved in any direction:  forward/backward, right/left, at an angle, and even rotated (360 degrees).  Ball bearings allow for smooth operation.  Table center has a moveable range of 100mm Max (MACM10-50) with a maximum allowable load weight of 2205 lbs.

Lowering Dew Point to Protect Expensive Automation Equipment

Failure to remove water vapor from factory air can quickly become a costly maintenance headache.

Water vapor and the resulting water condensate are the foremost causes of costly downtime and maintenance, not the more visible culprit of oil or contaminants, which are easily removed with proper filtration.

Murrelektronik views power management as teh starting point for machine efficiency.  Power conditioning, propertly sized power supplies, current monitoring, redundancy and energy savings are all considered when we asseble a power management solutioni for our customers.  The combined technologies offred by Murrelektronik help you to achieve a power management solution tailored to your application, your budget and your piece of mind.

A question Scott Equipment Company (SEC) gets asked on a somewhat regular basis is, can a collaborative robot, like the Aubo i5 SEC sells, handle a screw application. For example, installing screws into a housing on an assembled part. It is an interesting idea and one that has not made it past the idea phase for SEC. SEC found a video from Aubo Robotics showing exactly that. The solution was to mount a normal powered screw driver to custom end of arm tooling on the Aubo Robot, pick up a screw from a bowl feeder, place the screw in the assembly and have the powered screwdriver 'drive' the screw.

One of the foremost causes of costly downtime and emergency maintenance is not oil or contaminants, which are easily removed with proper filtration, but water vapor and the resulting condensed water that is trapped in factory compressed air.

A flash based pneumatic valve sizing calculator has been posted under the links section of our website.  This sizing calculator allows you to determine your valve Cv requirement.  Enter your application requirements and the calculator will give you everything you need to determine the correct valve requirement for your application including Cv, cylinder velocity, flow required, extend force, and retract force.  By design, you can easily tweak values to see what changes in variables do to your application requirements.

Magnetostrictive linear transducers are feedback sensors that give an analog or digital signal relative to the position of a magnet along the waveguide.  One of the common questions we are asked is should I use a captive or floating magnet?  The answer depends on the application and the environment.

Are you looking for a solution to increase the efficiency of your on-site diagnostics and maintenance?   One of the biggest issues floor managers communicate to us while visiting their facilities is limited access to a machine’s control panel.  In a lot of instances, the control panels are locked and require special access by either an approved operator or require additional physical security provided prior to opening the panel for safety reasons.   Murrelektronik’s Modlink MSDD front panel interfaces allow an operator to access the interface devices inside the closed control panel while remaining in compliance with the company’s safety regulations regarding panel entry.

With Datalogic’s identification devices, vision systems and sensors your operations can be assured that every movement of a component is accurately tracked and traced and that you have visibility as to where it is going and who is handling it. Discover the latest innovative products that help make it happen.

In the first quarter of 2018, there were 72 consumer product recalls in the United States, more than five per week. Recalls are costly in time, money and brand reputation. While every manufacturer takes steps to avoid product recalls, they happen.
