AC servo motors are a power source for many applications and play an important role in the performance and function of machinery and equipment. SANMOTION servo motors are designed to be smaller and lighter than other motion control alternatives (e.g. hydraulics) for higher performance and efficiency. There's no better application example than injection molding machines...

THE ROAD TOWARDS SAFETY WITH AMRS

Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are increasingly used to automate common material handling tasks to help manufacturers improve their competitive position, scale their business and tackle labor shortages. The AMRs are designed to work safely among people in industrial environments. With an increasing number of AMRs being deployed, new AMR manufacturers on the market, and new customers with limited experience with this relatively new technology, the topic of mobile robot safety is more important than ever.

Parker's ETH - High Force Electro Thrust Cylinders

QC Conveyors: Quick Shipping Reinstated
We're excited to announce the return of Quick Shipping at QC Conveyors! We're confident that QC's supply chain has rebounded to a point where they can set lead times as short as five days and deliver on those promises.

Beginning today, our original Quick Ship lead times will be reflected on any new quotes, including:

  • 5 Days on standard AS40, AS40-CD and IS125 Conveyors
  • 7 Days on AS40, AS40-CD and IS125 Conveyors with v‑guided and/or cleated belts
  • 10 Days on in-stock Flextrac Series components from our Quick Ship sizes

QC's quote validity period will remain at 30 days for now to allow additional flexibility to quickly adjust lead times if the supply chain tightens again in the future.
LMI Technologies Webinar
Gocator to PLC Communication (2 Sessions)
In machine vision applications, inspecting and measuring your part is only half the battle. You also need to communicate that information to external equipment. In production environments, that usually means a PLC. In this webinar, we will show how LMI Gocator 3D vision systems easily communicate with PLC’s:

– Using Ethernet/IP to communicate with Allen-Bradley PLC’s. Gocator devices added after EDS file installation. Implicit and explicit messaging supported.

– Using Profinet to communicate with Siemens PLC’s. Gocator devices added after GSD file installation

Join LMI Technologies' experts Michael Fisher and Trevor Dally for a webinar on Gocator 3D Smart Sensors to PLC communication.

Session 1: November 30th, 2021 at 18:00 PST

Session 2: December 1st, 2021 at 9:00 PST
Wednesday, December 8, 2021 at 2 PM ET

With simple programming and fast deployment at far lower cost than traditional industrial robots, it's no wonder cobot growth is exploding. But with new collaborative technology also comes a more advanced type of justification. This webinar will educate attendees on how to justify cobot-specific automation, looking beyond OEE and OLE calculations to other factors like reduced floor space, workers comp costs, employee retention and employee morale.
