Industry Products

The PCM-3240 stepping/pulse-type servo motor control card starts at $845. The card's intelligent NOVA MCX341-motion ASIC provides a variety of motion control functions, such as 2/3-axis linear interpolation, 2-axis circular interpolation, and T/S-curve acceleration/deceleration rate. The PCM-3240 performs these functions without requiring any main CPU processing. The PCM-3240 fits onto a standard PC/104 board.

Enhancements in Maple 11 a smart document interface, strong computation engine, and connectivity capabilities. The improved computation engine includes new mathematics, user-level multithreaded computations and a certified polynomial real root finder.

The USB-6221 and USB-6229 DAQ devices provide up to 32 analog inputs with a 250 kS/s single-channel sampling rate. Both have signal streaming technology, which uses the bandwidth and performance of Hi-Speed USB technology to allow bidirectional high-speed transfer of data between the USB device and a computer.

The Allen Bradley 1799 Embedded I/O product line for conveyor applications now includes the On Machine solution, which combines I/O circuits, a power supply and network adapters into a single IP00 module that provides local control of outputs using DeviceLogix technology. The built-in DeviceNet communications links the machine to the controller for increased speed and efficiency.

BKS Wire Draw Encoders provide high resolution (to 0.05 mm) position or distance information for linear measurement paths up to 5 m at speeds up to 3.5 m/sec, even under difficult mounting positions. Applications include presses, punching and injection machines, storage technology, wood and sheet metal processing machines, and machinery construction and medical technology.

The TPC-2012 works with the LabVIEW 8.20 Touch Panel Module, giving control and design engineers an option for deploying the LabVIEW graphical development environment on Windows CE HMI devices.

Slim Line (SL Series) Industrial Ethernet Unmanaged Switches are available in five (SL-5ES), eight (SL-8ES) and nine port (SL-9ES) models. The compact and slim packaging design allows them to fit into the tightest DIN rail applications. The switches are CUL (UL/CSA), CE, FCC, ISO 9001, and RoHS/WEEE rated.

Direct Current (DC) power supplies include four adjustable voltage models: a 25W 5VDC 5A unit, a 48W 12VDC 4A unit, a 48W 24VDC 2A unit, and a 48W 48VDC 1A unit. All units have regulatory approvals, including UL 508, cRUus 60950, GSA, and CE.

The fiber interface extends the maximum distance between a PowerDNA I/O Cube and its host computer from the 100 meter Ethernet/100BASE-T limitation to 2 kilometers. The 2 km limitation reflects the use of standard, off-the-shelf multimode fiber.

LabSoft LIMS NR tool manages noncompliance records and provides a method to focus on the root cause of an NR and determine the reasons, circumstances and responsible parties.
