Energy-efficient modular chargers promote uptime and reduce costs
Portable, economical oxy-fuel/plasma cutting system
compact oxy-fuel/plasma CNC cutting system that is portable and economical. The machine’s size and weight make it easy to transport as the application requires. Automated functions and a user friendly CNC provide powerful,
E versatile, oxy-fuel or plasma
processing in a value-minded package. Crossbow is ideal for trade schools, small fab shops, maintenance and repair shops, or for portable use within large facilities or at construction sites. Crossbow features a fully integrated CNC, eliminating the need for the user to add a controller to the system. A simple, menu- driven interface makes operation easy to learn and use. A library of 24 common shapes minimizes programming and setup time. Dimensions are easily edited to create custom shapes without actual programming. For custom programs, the CNC uses basic M- and G-Code programming, and off-line programmed NC files can be transferred to the machine using a standard USB connection.

he new Hawker® LifeTech® Modular and Hawker® Life IQ™ Modular high- frequency battery chargers from EnerSys® deliver increased flexibility, efficiency and reliability with reduced downtime, costs and carbon footprint across a wide range of materials handling, automatic guided vehicle and motive power applications. They reduce energy consumption by up to 25 per cent compared with conventional chargers and can cut charging times by up to two hours. Single-phase and three-phase modules are available in a range of configurations with outputs from 12 to 80V for use with any batteries with a corresponding charging profile including models from the Hawker XFC™ and Hawker Waterless® ranges. The chargers are configured using a number of identical power modules so that performance can be matched to the specific application requirement. This allows installations to be optimised to take full advantage of all of the energy-efficiency and battery-life benefits of high-frequency charging. Each module is a standalone unit which is managed independently by the control board to deliver peak efficiency at all times. This modular approach minimises the risk of charger failure. The advanced design of the chargers delivers increased efficiency and reduces energy consumption compared with conventional models.

astle Group Ltd of Scarborough, North Yorkshire, have found a real interest in the market with their new lone worker solution, the Loner SMD. “The amount of interest and sheer number of enquiries we’ve received for this new product has left us without doubt there is a real need in UK industries for a cost effective, simple to implement, complete lone worker system.” said Simon Bull, Managing Director of Castle Group Ltd. It’s obvious an effective solution has been missing from the market until now, with 61 deaths and 14,000 serious injuries in the UK from lone working related incidents in 2008 alone.
“At Castle our aim has always been to provide market leading solutions to the health and environment of business, and
industries, around the world. The Loner SMD’s answer to lone worker issues epitomises Castle’s 40 year campaign to being the solution for business issues.” The device is a mobile phone sized, rugged, clip- on unit, working on multiple mobile phone networks; and with an internal quad-band antenna, this ensures the strongest possible signal in the most remote of locations. Alerts are managed in a designated online web portal for your organisation, within which you have complete control. From setting Fall Detection sensitivity, to optional tracking and breadcrumb trails.
