Sealevel Systems, Inc. announces the SeaPAC™ family of flat panel touchscreen computers designed to operate over a wide temperature range without fans or other moving parts. Available with bright, AMTFT LCDs ranging in size from 6.4” to 17”, SeaPAC systems are perfect for a variety of industrial control, machine interface, and point-of-sale applications where small size and extreme reliability are a must.

The easy to use window based GUI will be used to program and control 6 axis robots in plastics and injection molding applications including demolding and deburring. The new KUKA GUI named KUKA Smart GUI Plastics Software Package is the only available interface that provides the same simplified programming capability currently used in traditional linear robotic applications.

Dynics, Inc. now offers the popular paneLink series with Pentium M technology. The new faster paneLink has the processing power of a P4, but uses less wattage and generates less heat. In addition, the paneLink series has undergone “thermal” re-design to better facilitate airflow and system heat dissipation.

“AS-Interface is perhaps the simplest fieldbus network available for wiring of actuators and sensors (with wiring savings up to 40%),” said Mark DeCramer, Product Manager for the WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM. “Requiring just a single cable to connect I/O modules, users need very little knowledge of bus systems or communication protocols to get started.”

The DHS215XEL provides the user with a completely portable, easy-to-use, cost-effective, and accurate means to measure surface temperatures in a wide variety of applications including quality/non-destructive testing, manufacturing process control, plant/facilities maintenance, electrical troubleshooting, automotive repair and diagnostics, diesel and fleet maintenance and HVAC/Refrigeration.

Caterpillar Inc. introduces the new Electric Power SpecSizer tool for generator set sizing and specifying. Considering factors such as site conditions, load characteristics and required performance, SpecSizer provides accurate and timely technical data, robust load models and optimized algorithms to assist in the selection of a competitively sized generator set that best suits a customer's needs.

Intermec's RFID team worked with Microsoft to test and refine Microsoft BizTalk RFID, which has been designed to allow all users to simply and easily incorporate RFID information and data into a variety of applications and end-to-end business processes. The "plug and play" functionality in Microsoft BizTalk RFID makes it possible for RFID devices, such as Intermec readers and printers, to become fully compatible with the Microsoft platform and to integrate with third-party applications and processes.

The PCIe Working Group chose Molex Incorporated (NASDAQ: MOLX and MOLXA) to be the first interconnect company to develop the External PCI Express (PCIe) offering. This offering includes a full line of high-speed connectors and cable assemblies that are specifically designed to support the new, multi-purpose, hot-pluggable input/output (I/O) interface standard for the Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) Express.

IXXAT will also offer an ISA PC interface card for CAN and CANopen in future. For this purpose, the iPC-I 165 card from IXXAT was redeveloped in accordance with the RoHS directives and a lead-free version is now available.

The T4012 features a compact, glass-filled NEMA 6 thermoplastic housing making it suitable for use in most applications, including water washdown environments. When used with the optional stainless steel actuator, these switches are designed to provide a minimum of two million actuations in demanding application environments.
