n Servo Drives
n Open Frame Monitors
Premio, City of Industry, CA, has released a line of industrial-grade openApplied
Motion Products, Morgan Hill,
CA, has introduced a servo series engineered
for high machine performance, exceptional
torque output, and precise control. The M5
servo drives implement accurate motor control
algorithms. The drives support fast motion
profiles, automatic error compensation,
and troubleshooting aids to achieve high system
throughput and minimize downtime.
Power range is from 100 W to 3 kW. Incremental,
absolute multi-turn magnetic, and
optical encoder options are 17 to 26 bit.

n Japanese
Medical Plug
Interpower,
Oskaloosa, IA,
has launched a
12A/ 125 VAC
hospital- grade
power cord and
cord set for Japan. With a Japanese hospitalgrade
plug on one end, and an IEC 60320
C13 connector on the opposite end of 1.25
mm² VCTF cable, the cord set is ready to use
right out of the box. The newly designed plug
offers more flexibility in manufacturing custom
cord length and color options. The cord
set has a Japanese PSE-approved plug bearing
the " green dot. " Internal stainless steel
clamp rings ensure conductor retention. The
standard color is gray. Customized lengths
and colors are available.

frame touch monitors. The plug-and-play FIO series is available in display
sizes ranging from 15 to 27 in. The series maintains a slim profile up to ~40
mm (1.5 in.) in depth to enable seamless mounting integration into various
environments without compromising display quality. Each size is equipped
with TFT-LCD and LED backlight technology, minimizing power consumption.
The 10-point PCAP touchscreen provides a wide viewing angle and clarity even in difficult
lighting conditions. VESA, rear, and panel mounting options enable flexible setup installation.

n Battery Connectors
Kyocera AVX, Fountain Inn, SC, has expanded its vertical-mate,
2.0-mm-pitch battery connectors with the addition of new sevenand
eight-position models to satisfy customer demand for higher
signal and current capabilities. These new additions also further
expand its 9155 family of battery connectors. The 9155-800 Series
feature a unique contact geometry that deflects cleanly when a module, mating connector, or
PCB is vertically pushed into position, enabling full vertical engagement in pluggable modules
without the risk of contact damage.

n Electric Clamping System
Electric power clamps are available from Destaco, Auburn Hills, MI. Operating
completely without compressed air, the plug-and-play 92 W power
clamps set a new standard for efficient and environmentally friendly production
operations. They reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions. The
control of the electric clamps is decentralized and attached directly to the
production devices. All automation functions can be implemented decentrally.
The power clamps hold workpieces in several positions. No external sensors are required.

n Tubing Retainer
Qosina, Ronkonkoma, NY, has introduced tubing retainers designed to
provide leak-free fluid transfer. The Pharma+™ retainers feature a patentpending
lead-in ramp, creating a complete 360° compression. With an operating
pressure of 80 psi (120 psi burst), these components are cleanroom
molded from polyketone and suitable for several sterilization methods including gamma radiation,
x-ray, and autoclaving. The tubing retainers work seamlessly with silicone, TPE, and PVC
tubing, making them a versatile choice for high-pressure bioprocess applications. They are installed
using cable tie tension tools and are recyclable for easy disposal.

n Motion Controller
A stored program motion control system controller from OES, Van Nuys,
PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT
USP CLASS VI
EPOXY WITHSTANDS
REPEATED
STERILIZATIONS
Master Bond EP46HT-2Med
is a two-component medicalgrade
epoxy for high-performance structural bonding
and casting. It is suitable for applications where
resistance to temperatures from -100°F to +500°F is
required and high mechanical strength and chemical
resistance is needed.

CA, is available as a desktop or 19-in. rack-mount system. The Allegra series
can be configured for one, two, three, or four axes of motion. With the appropriate
drivers selected, any combination of stepper motors, DC brush-type
servo motors with quadrature incremental encoders, three-phase brushless DC servo motors with
quadrature incremental encoders or Hall effect sensors, or voice coil motors with linear encoders
can be controlled. The commands are written, loaded, and saved into the controller's memory using
the supplied IDE. The controller is capable of running the commands without need of the host.

n Stepper Motor Linear Actuator
Thomson Industries, Inc., Downers Grove, IL, has released a rotating-nut
stepper motor linear actuator (SMLA) with a rotary encoder as a standard
option. SMLAs use a stepper motor and lead screw shaft to translate rotary
motion to linear motion for all three configurations: linear actuator, rotating screw, and rotating nut.
Previously, designers requiring positional monitoring on either the actuator or rotating screw configurations
had to request a custom encoder assembly. SMLAs with pre-installed rotary encoders are
available in all NEMA motor frame sizes and leadscrew thread forms.
