Oriental Motor's AlphaStep closed loop control systems perform accurate positioning operations with ease. The AlphaStep features a unique control system combining the benefits of "open loop control" and "closed loop control".

During career day at a local children's school, Michael Reynaud (one of Valin's Automation Technical Specialists) demonstrated Omron's TM Series Collaborative Robot showing the kids just one of the many things he does at work.

Omron’s latest addition to the S8VK family of power supplies is designed to help manufacturers keep downtime to a minimum. Using a voltage input in the three-phase 200 VAC, the S8VK-WA power supply helps remove phase imbalance in a system.

MicroHAWK MV Smart Cameras redefine imaging technology as a single, omni-capable platform for any automation task. With the scalability to accomplish simple to advanced machine vision in one, MicroHAWK offers the breadth of Omron Microscan software and hardware options on the smallest smart camera suite ever developed.

Omron's new E2E NEXT Proximity Sensors offers up to 4 times the sensing range of standard sensors. This e
Exceptional sensing range reduces sensor failures and increases productivity.

WIKA's mini diaphragm gauge was developed for high purity applications with limited space requirements, such as smaller integrated gas stick and gas box assemblies. The nominal sizes of 1" and 1.3" are ideal for applications involving gaseous, liquid and corrosive media up to 160 psi.

IO-Link provides a platform for sensors to report fault detection, condition monitoring and component identification, and communicate the details throughout the system. IO-Link helps shorten commissioning and reduces troubleshooting and downtime to maximize production availability.

Vibration and noise control for stepper motors has been a focus of machine builders in recent years. Too much vibration can cause missed steps, and minimization of noise can widen applications outside of factory automation. The good news is that recent advances in driver technology can help.

It can be challenging for OEMs, system integrators and distributors to find “invisible noise.” Unwanted EMI and RFI noise can degrade the performance of communication systems and cause false triggering and faulty readings in sensor circuits.

EMI and RFI are types of electric or electronic emission that can degrade, impair or prevent electrical circuit performance. To protect and optimize equipment performance, Enerdoor offers one of the largest ranges of solutions to reduce electromagnetic / radio-frequency interference.
