New FD-80 Laser Connectors Provide Unmatched Power Handling
F
iberguide Industries’ new FD-80 high power keyed connector delivers unprecedented power handling up to 750 watts. The new assembly is designed for the demanding power requirements of industrial laser systems used for cutting, drilling, marking and welding. FD-80 connector assemblies are constructed from all silica optical fibers with core sizes from 100µm to 1500µm. An epoxy-free cantilevered nose design isolates fibers from the connector, allowing safe dissipation of thermal energy without burning the surrounding material. Connectors have a laser polished fiber face to promote better power transmission and reduce risk of damage to the end face. Fiberguide’s connectors are available with anti-reflective coating and various sheathing options to best fit environmental conditions. Optional integrated mode stripping removes stray cladding power for systems requiring enhanced performance.

ith a common set of development tools all working from a single source of information, the programming of automation assets from the Rockwell Automation midrange family is not only significantly more effective, but can also be a lot faster Rockwell Automation is widely recognised as an industry leader when it comes to the programming,
deployment of automation solutions. Many of these plaudits are as
a result of the common development environment it offers for its Logix-based solutions. This approach to programming, maintenance and deployment, also available in its enhanced midrange offering, can provide users with multiple benefits across all aspects of the Rockwell Automation Logix family; from lower-level devices such as drives and motion, through the core Allen-Bradley CompactLogix L3 programmable automation controllers (PAC), up to the top, operator-interaction and visualisation layer.

New Weidmuller screwdrivers deliver functional and comfortable solutions
W
eidmüller is expanding its assortment of screwdrivers with an angled spring opener, a hexalobular socket (Torx®) screwdriver with T-handles and bits, a plus/minus screwdriver with interchangeable blades and a Robertson (square tipped) screwdriver, to meet industry demands.
Using the angled spring opener makes it easier to reach tension clamp terminals mounted in confined spaces such as in distribution cabinets. To achieve this, the blade is curved at an angle of 40°, a design feature that also simplifies handling. The angled spring opener is a useful tool with which to open the tension clamp of terminal blocks from Weidmüller's Z-Series, MICROSERIES and TERMSERIES.
The Hexalobular socket (Torx®) screwdriver with T-handles and bits offers compelling levels of comfort, because the user is able to engage the deep-seated screw much more easily with the screwdriver. This reduces the risk of damaging the screw head profile.
With screws with plus/minus heads being increasingly used in the electronics sector, such as in relay bases requiring low torques or in surge protection modules requiring higher torques, there has been an increase in market demand for plus/minus screwdrivers and interchangeable blades.
The
Weidmuller plus/minus screwdrivers come in two blade lengths – 80mm and 100mm. The new Robertson (square tipped) screwdriver that has been added to the portfolio fulfils requirements in NAFTA countries, where square socket screws are often used.
As VDE insulated screwdrivers, the new plus/minus
screwdriver with interchangeable blades and the Robertson screwdriver are certified for work on live components up to 1000 VAC and 1500 VDC in accordance with DIN EN 60900, IEC 900.
