Demag DC-ProDC chain hoists
family. The DC-ProDC models feature direct control offering a reliable solution
T for a wide range of
industrial, warehouse and logistics’ applications. Direct controlled Demag DC-ProDC chain hoists are also suitable for the refurbishment and upgrade of existing material handling systems, with the chain hoist operated by an existing control system with a line supply. DC-ProDC chain hoists with direct control are available in seven sizes with load capacities between 80 and 5,000 kg. Depending on the load capacity, lifting speeds range from 4 to 24 m/min. The chain hoist can be controlled direct via a line supply. A terminal strip integrated in the unit provides for direct and simple connection. Alternatively, DC-ProDC units may be operated with Demag DSK or DST control pendants. Operating limit switches can be incorporated safety cut off of the lifting motions. As with all other chain hoists in the DC product range, the DC-ProDC gearbox is maintenance free for up to 10 years.

erex Material Handling is now offering an additional model within its Demag DC chain hoist
hen an internationally recognised automation company needed to develop a new product for the Aerospace industry it required a professional supply partner with quality products …so it chose Drive Lines Technologies Ltd. Bosch Rexroth Ltd, part of the Bosch group, based in Cirencester, has designed and built an innovative Vertical Personnel Platform (VPP), a height adjustable, safe working platform from which personnel could raise themselves and tools to correct working heights for intricate assembly operations. The design required an inherently safe,
and controlled vertical drive mechanism to raise the lightweight aluminium
modular lowered position.
Drive Lines specified a screw jack system using compact Grob Antriebstechnik cubic design screw jacks, featuring a travelling safety nut and self-locking worm wheel gearbox.
R+W
Antriebselemente precision line shafts and couplings provided the transmission to all four jacks in the system via spiral bevel distribution gearboxes. A brake motor, also supplied by Drive Lines, provided the power. With a mechanically linked system the platform can be raised safely and precisely with non-uniformly distributed loads without the risk of slipping or distorting. Drive Lines, supply partners to Bosch Rexroth, worked
closely with Bosch at design and project stages and 3D models of all components were provided to create a virtual VPP before manufacture began ‘Being able to outsource a complete technical solution in a cost effective drive package from Drive Lines helped the product to get off the ground’ said Mark Dash – Engineering Manager, Bosch Rexroth.
Bosch Rexroth has been successful with the new product range and with the support of Drive Lines has engineered a demonstration VPP which can be seen at exhibitions throughout Europe.

New EMEA-Wide Network Certification Program
introduced an EMEA-wide certification program to help ensure that customers’ industrial networks are reliable, adaptable and able to support growing control and information needs. Belden is the first company in the industry to offer managers looking
B to install a new or significantly
upgraded network a fully Certified Industrial Network Program to support and guide the process. Then, unlike ad hoc networks with partial product warranties, Belden certifies entire industrial networks, providing peace-of-mind
and minimized downtime through enhanced warranties and dedicated customer support. The program provides several key benefits:
• Dual expertise and counsel: Belden partners with top system integrators in the industry – training them on best practices in network design, installation and testing – to provide “Belden Certified” networks. At each step of the certification process, two sets of experts – Belden and an authorized provider – work to meet operational requirements and minimize areas of risk. • Flexibility for the future: Knowing that networks need to continue evolving to meet changing needs, Belden designs with room for growth in mind. This includes expansion guidelines for customers to make changes on their own, while retaining Belden Certified status. • Confidence for decades: Instead of a limited warranty on individual components, a Belden Certified network includes a limited lifetime warranty on networking components such as switches, significantly lowering the total cost of ownership. In addition, Belden cable and connectivity product warranties are extended from 2-3 years to 25 years. • Products that work: As a provider of cable, connectivity, networking and security products, from Hirschmann, GarrettCom, Lumberg and Tofino Security, Belden can certify and guarantee an entire network of products for decades to come. Personalized customer service: For those with Belden Certified networks, a dedicated team is on call to offer advice and assistance. With infrastructure design and test results on file, Belden can isolate any problems and get networks back up and running quickly.

Robust fixed pipe connections
made of metal Flexible compressed air systems for custom automation systems
he innovative piping system EISELE ALU PRO 30 with screw connections for metal pipes is the first product line of the new PIPINGLINE. The modular system for fixed pipe connections of the compressed air supply for assembly lines sets new standards in every respect for the distribution of compressed air, gases and fluids. Compressed air offers numerous benefits: it is clean and simple to use, flexible in application and easy to regulate. That is why compressed air is used widely in production processes of all types. The pneumatic supply systems are elementary components in these systems and must fulfil the most stringent requirements for reliability,
T
economy and efficiency. A new compressed air system from Eisele Pneumatics GmbH & Co. KG. offers all of these features: high quality, easy assembly and exceptional flexibility.
