Machinery can regenerate power to save energy
Lenze asks why convert kinetic or potential energy into heat, when stopping machinery or inclined conveyors, when that energy could be regenerated into electricity feed back.
Servo controller has Ethernet connectivity
Lenze-AC Tech has lintroduced its PositionServo drive with full Ethernet connectivity as standard, without the usual cost and complexity associated with servo automation equipment.
Additional flexibility to the range is provided by the PCI slot and combined PCI/ISA slot, which takes extension cards up to 290mm in length.
Accessories offered by Digitec include field bus controllers for PROFIBUS, Interbus, CANopen and Device-Net in PCI and ISA versions as well as various I/O cards.
With possibility of adding a self-contained SPS slot or Soft SPS, the EL Panel PC becomes a complete, powerful and compact automation system.
Thanks to the varied and interchangeable fieldbus options it can also be integrated into heterogeneous automation architecture.
Depending on the application, the operator has a choice of screen size from 6.4 to 19in.
The panels are either touch sensitive or glass covered with optional special function keys, alpha keys or with an integrated operating display in MF2 layout.
Customised layouts are also available.
Other add-ons are scalable to the suit the application: unventilated systems can by built up to mobile Celeron 600 using CPUs; for higher performance requirements Mobile Pentium M-CPUs up to 1.6GHz processing speed are available.
The choice of operating systems range from Windows XP and XP Embedded to Windows CE.
Depending on the operating system selected, installation is done on HD or via Compact Flash.
The latter allows PC systems to operate safely even in environments where there is heavy vibration or danger of knocks.
All EL Panels come with an Ethernet connection, two inputs for COM and USB and a Compact Flash slot.
There is also a pluggable front USB port to aid the connection of peripheral devices.
This is activated and deactivated via a software function.
Even with this integrated input device, the front face has IP65 protection.can be delivered in a few working days, or even, if required, next day. Request a free brochure from Lenze ...
