The basic application for a VFD is one where an AC motor must be run with some aspect of control over the speed, accel/decel or torque. Cranes, fans, pumps, mixers, conveyors, and similar applications are all candidates for using a VFD.

In the semiconductor industry, keeping equipment in top shape is a chief priority. To ensure that every batch of wafers coming out of the process meets the meticulous industry standards for quality, every component in the process must be regularly maintained.

With mega fab construction accelerating around the globe, designers of new generation wafer processing equipment are following the lead of SEMI S2 and the European Machinery Directive by embracing functional safety standards like ISO-13849 for the design and integration of safety-related parts of control systems (SRP/CS) including the design of software.

Are you having trouble with your pneumatic valve banks on CVD, PVD, ETCH, and other 20+ year-old tools? Troubles such as EV failures and CDA leaks, obsolescence, and low airflow due to smaller Cv's?  Are you tired of the midnight phone calls because your electric valves are failing? Well, Valin has the solution!

With a competitive, evolving global marketplace, changes in outsourcing and scarce availability of engineering talent, the decision to make or buy conveyors is one that many companies face every day.

GOT provides an easily accessible interface for startup, commissioning, and control/monitoring VFD with pre-designed sample projects. Anyone can set it up in minutes by following the Quick Start Guide.

A little knowledge goes a long way knowing and understanding the advantages and limits of encoders and limit switches can ensure the best possible motion system design.

Parker Electronic Motion and Controls division recently announced 4-week lead times on select product series and option sets.

Valin and Mitsubishi Electric joined forces to bring the latest automation solutions to our customers in Arizona on August 7th.  On board the mobile showroom customers saw the latest technology in PLCs, drives, CNCs, motion control, HMIs, energy monitoring and management, industrial robots, and connectivity for MES and ERP applications.

Selecting a regulator is not a simple process. There are many application-specific elements to consider and critical ramifications associated with each decision.

The Kyntronics SMART Electro-Hydraulic Actuator (SHA), combines the best features of hydraulic power with the precision of servo control used in screw-type electro-mechanical actuators, without the inherent disadvantages of those approaches.

When to select the perfect regulator. Understanding design parameters of pressure regulators in gas or fluid line systems.

Introducing Parker's new FR Series Pressure Regulators. Parker's competitively priced FR Series ultra high purity regulators are perfect for controlling process gases in downstream point-of-use applications in semiconductor fabrication.

The key to making the proper decisions on condition monitoring is to understand what kind of information is required, how often that information is needed and what kind of budget is in play.

The answer might not be so obvious when deciding to use pre-engineered "Cartesian Robots" versus more modularly designed gantries.

The concepts of preventive maintenance and condition monitoring are not always characterized in a way that is entirely accurate. They sometimes seem to be treated as a one-size-fits-all service that many operators believe they need. However, these concepts can mean very different things depending on the application.

Selecting the proper positioner is critical. The wrong decision can lead to unnecessary costs on one end of the spectrum and the need for a replacement on the other.
