Novotechnik - New 5 mm Flat Angle and Speed Sensors

Vert-X 05E Series sensors measure angles from 0 to 360°, rotational speed and direction.

Southborough, MA… Novotechnik, U.S. introduces the Vert-X 05E Series of dual angle/speed sensors. The series features easy mounting in small and narrow spaces with a 5 mm body depth and mounting flanges with metal inserts.

The sensors also feature measurement only 6 mm from edge of product for close-to-wall measurement applications. Vert-X 05E Series sensors measure angles from 0 to 360°, rotational speed and direction.

Other key specifications include independent linearity to ±0.3% of measurement range, resolution to 12-bits (analog output) and 1,024 pulses per revolution (incremental outputs), repeatability to 0.1°. Measurement speeds are up to 120,000 RPM. Vert-X 05E life is specified as unlimited mechanical movements and 390 years MTBF.

Vert-X 05E output choices include 0.5 to 4.5 V analog as well as incremental including: TTL, differential RS-422, push-pull/HTL and open collector.
Operating temperature range is -40 to +125°C and Vert-X 05E is rated at IP68 for ingress protection. Applications include speed regulation of an electric motor, electric vehicle drive, crane, escalator, flowmeter, pump, fork lift, construction, and agricultural machines.

TM Robotics - Shibaura Machine THE SCARA range

The THE range from Shibaura Machine is an extensive line up of SCARA robots. Available in four arm lengths THE400 (400mm), THE600 (600mm) and the most recent THE800 (800mm) and THE1000 (1000mm), this range is suitable for assembly, handling, inspection and pick and place processes in varied industrial applications. The THE1000 boasts a 20kg payload capacity and an impressive 0.44 second cycle time, providing high speeds for processes with large components. In fact, the range has been recognised for as the price-to-performance leader compared to other SCARA models in its price range due to its impressive speed versus payload capacity.
