Why Choose An On-machine Solution? by Rockwell Automation

By
Julius Frago
-

Why Choose An On-machine Solution?:

In a recent article from Rockwell Automation, it was highlighted that an On-Machine™ solution offers a decentralized equipment design approach, helping to overcome challenges associated with cabinet-based solutions for end users.

This approach aims to meet aggressive timelines, decrease installation costs, reduce exposure to risk, and increase system value. By adopting a simpler, more modular approach to machine design, total costs can be lowered, floor space saved, and deployment time minimized. Quick connect technology further speeds up design installation and maintenance, improving productivity and flexibility, while the environmental robustness of On-Machine solutions helps reduce the risk of failure.

IO Device Library by Rockwell Automation

By
Julius Frago

IO Device Library:

In a recent article from Rockwell Automation, it was highlighted that their Device Object Libraries enable easy interfacing with Rockwell Automation intelligent devices such as drives, motion, network switches, sensors, IO, and more. These libraries consist of tested, documented, and lifecycle-managed objects, which can be utilized with machine builder, process, and packaged libraries, or as standalone components.

Notably, these device objects include HMI faceplates for FactoryTalk® View ME/SE and Studio 5000 View Designer® software, offering a user interface that seamlessly integrates with the products. HMI faceplates are standard display files that provide a common user interface. They are essentially HMI pop-up screens used to display detailed information related to a specific instruction or device. In systems following ISA 101.1 design guidelines, faceplates are often referred to as Level 4 displays.

Hands protection – Functional Safety by LinMot

By
Julius Frago
-

Hands protection – Functional Safety:

In a recent LinMot article, customers, including Mr. Kaifel, praised the C1250 servo drives for maintaining the same motor dimensions as the standard version in the 2S variant. This feature eliminates the need for additional hardware, as all safety monitoring is integrated into the drive itself. The drives now offer expanded functionalities such as Safe Stop 2 (SS2), Safe Operation Stop (SOS), Safe Limited Speed (SLS), and Safe Brake Control (SBC/SBT), in addition to the STO (Safe Stop) and SS1 already available on the 1S version. Notably, SBC now includes a Brake Test (SBT) for cyclic checking of the braking effect.

The linear motors, like the drive controller, are designed for functional safety. The most commonly used sizes come with safe encoders, and the 2S motors (stators and sliders) are externally identical, eliminating the need for an additional sensor. They connect to the drive using a single cable solution for safe drive control.

IIot In Hazardous Areas Thanks To EX NR by Stahl

By
Julius Frago

IIot In Hazardous Areas Thanks To EX NR:

In a recent article from Stahl, the basic principle of restricted breathing is highlighted. This principle stems from the concept that enclosures must effectively prevent the explosive mixture of gas and air from entering them by being tightly sealed. Additionally, the surface of the enclosure must not exceed the ignition limit temperature of the potentially explosive atmosphere. While this principle may seem straightforward, achieving the perfect balance between necessary safety requirements and ease of use requires careful consideration of various aspects. These requirements are detailed in the IEC EN 60079-15 standard. Enclosure systems meeting these standards are approved by ATEX or IECEx, as indicated by a corresponding marking.
