OPCcalc allows you to easily create complex process calculations which use OPC tags as inputs to equations and outputs of results. Based on Microsoft Visual Basic.Net, OPCcalc handles all of the "plumbing" for your equations, letting you concentrate on your calculation logic.

The EtherCAT sensor, short for 'Ethernet for Control Automation Technology,' is an innovative interface for industrial Ethernet that provides the fastest, most deterministic industrial networking possible using the base Ethernet physical layer.

The newest high-tech paint system from Dürr Paint Systems uses the new Allen-Bradley GuardLogix integrated safety controller from Rockwell Automation to enhance operator safety, speed system installation and reduce engineering costs. Featuring an improved, modular design, the new EcoRP E32 robotic paint system is capable of producing high-quality painting with maximum flexibility for a wide range of automotive applications.

AMETEK Solidstate Controls has introduced a new Device Relationship Management (DRM) approach that provides users of its Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) Systems with the ability to monitor their UPS and battery systems using a single device, either through their UPS system's communications interface or as a stand-alone unit.

Process Management announces the release of a new diagnostic tool which detects and alerts users when the flow sensor on Brooks Instrument mass flow controllers (MFCs) experience zero-drift of more than user specified limits. The Zero Drift Diagnostic is an advanced tool now available for the Brooks Model 7950S MFC. This unique feature monitors the flow signal during no-flow conditions, and then utilizes the Model 7950S alarms to notify the user when an out-of-limits condition has been detected.

The card can be used as managing node (MN) and as controlled node (CN) to enable the implementation of realtime-compatible PC-based PLC applications. In addition, the card serves as a platform for PC-based analysis and test systems and can be used with the IXXAT EPL configuration program.

LioN compact I/O modules for DeviceNet and Profibus-DP applications have two housing styles, the LioN-S and the LioN-M. LioN-S has an ultra compact housing with Pico (M8) I/O and Micro (M12) power and bus connectors and are available in 8-channel versions. LioN-M has a compact housing with Micro (M12) and Mini (7/8”) power connectors.

The PH1013 1000-watt compact power supply with 24V / 40A and an enhanced, µC-controlled power boost supplies 80A for two seconds, either during the start-up phase or in full operation.

The DAP 5000a/526 includes 16 analog inputs, 2 analog outputs, 16 digital inputs, and 16 digital outputs. External rack-mounted hardware can extend these channel counts to 512, 66, 128, and 1024 respectively.

The fully-illustrated guide highlights sensing solutions for digital printing, sheet fed printing, web printing and bindery. Featured technologies include photoelectric sensors, inductive sensors, capacitive sensors, AS-Interface networking components, barcode imagers, encoders and cordsets.

The Model LT8 Layer Pad and Top Frame Separator System is a truly unique product design that provides automated sorting at speeds of 10 layer pads per minute.

Pressure Systems now offers an easy-to-use, Windows Mobile-based derivative of its sophisticated K-ware applications software to operate its waterMONITOR submersible, datalogging level transducers with a handheld Pocket PC.

The latest AMD Geode™ LX [email protected] processor balances higher performance with superb power consumption and delivers excellent performance per watt for 32-bit embedded applications. PCM-9375 has the same mechanical design and layout as its predecessor, offering an ideal upgrade path for older AMD Geode GX1 processor-based systems in machine control, portable medical equipment and gaming applications.

This new industrial connection box inherits the main features of C-Box product line. It has an external 25-pin connector to connect to the scanner and a wide terminal strip for easy and fast cabling operations. It also has an internal 9-pin connector to access the auxiliary port of the scanner. Furthermore, the C-Box 150 is provided with an internal power switch and power LED.

Hardy Instruments ANY-WEIGH FM Approved analog line of bench scales provides value and flexibility in size and capacity for use in a wide range of both laboratory and industrial hazardous weighing applications. The scales have built-in 4-20mA analog communications capabilities and come pre-calibrated from the factory, making them essentially plug-and-play.

iTAC Software AG, manufacturer of MES standard software, is bringing the latest version of its software solution, iTAC.MES.Suite release 5.00, to the market in June 2006. At its core, the new version is characterized by a Java-based, platform independent middleware as well as Part Average Analysis (PAA standard) and an integrated alert-management system with optional early warning system.

The product has been equipped with support for Modbus ASCII (Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP are already supported). It is also possible to access the web server with modems (GSM/GPRS, telephone modems). This way it is possible to monitor and control automation products over the web pages using modem lines.

With the latest line extension from Allen-Bradley push buttons, OEMs and end users can save money and time. The Bulletin 800FD 22.5 mm Monolithic Push Button devices include pilot light and E-stop devices. To save time, the new devices come fully assembled and can be quickly installed - or removed - by a single worker.

A GPRS-based Arctic IEC-104 Gateway adds efficiency to fault restoration and maintenance at utilities. The product is jointly specified with Viola Systems, a leader in industrial-grade wireless M2M (Machine-to-Machine) connectivity solutions.

The panel's innovative DVI/USB extension allows devices to be installed at a distance of up to 50 m as standard – improving upon conventional DVI/USB connections by a factor of 10. The maximum distance for conventional DVI/USB connections is far shorter at only 5 m. Previous DVI/USB extension technology allowed distances up to 30 m, but at a significantly higher cost by requiring expensive extension components.
