Unique! One Module for Voltage and Current Signals
M
urrelektronik presents a new MASI68 analog module with a special feature: This compact expansion module processes analog voltage signals and current signals in one module. Four measuring channels are available that can be configured individually. This simplifies installations: so far, two analog modules had to be integrated in installations with different signals (voltage and current). Now, simplify everything and use only one module! According to the specific requirements, you can now configure which of the four ports should be used for which signals. You can also variably select whether the sensors are connected with a current range of ±4 to ±20 mA or 0 to ±20 mA. Measure currents within the range of 0 to ±10 V, which also dramatically increases flexibility. So far, different analog modules had to be used which resulted in higher costs, more wiring and required more space. Compared to the competitors, Murrelektronik's MASI68 analog module is the most compact on the market. Its housing is fully potted, it's rugged and meets the requirements of IP68, which is ideal for applications in demanding environmental conditions.

futuristic logistics centre is taking shape in Bodelshausen, Germany, at the state-of-the- art headquarters of the international women's fashion brand, Marc Cain. With a buoyant order book, Marc Cain is investing around 34 million euros in its logistics capacity, including automated warehouse systems from KNAPP worth 12 million euros. A white finish and extensive use of glass give the new logistics centre a stylish look, blending in perfectly with the existing Marc Cain campus. All companies involved in the project are partners from the local region except for KNAPP as intralogistics provider – the Austrian group was selected because Marc Cain was impressed by KNAPP's high quality standards and unique, all-in- one solution, including a warehouse management system.
A The combination of KNAPP's OSR
ShuttleTM and the Roll Adapter technology of KNAPP subsidiary, Dürkopp Fördertechnik, allows the complete range of flat-packed and hanging goods to be handled seamlessly. In addition, KNAPP's emphasis on finding the ideal layout to optimise workplace ergonomics within a future- oriented design was attractive for the customer.
Fashion brand Marc Cain installs KNAPP solution
The OSR ShuttleTM automated storage and retrieval system forms the centre of the flat- packed goods solution and can be expanded whenever necessary. KNAPP's Pick-it-Easy Shop workstations guarantee ergonomic order picking, with Pick-to-Light displays and touch screens ensuring efficient and error-free order processing. Smaller orders are picked directly into Sort & Pack racks at special workstations and are then packed. Hanging goods are sorted automatically using a roll adapter system in the goods-in and goods-out area. This system can transport and sort almost any type of hanger on the market. The hangers are not arranged directly in the rail system but rather are transported using RFID adapters used as goods carriers. Each adapter is equipped with an RFID transponder, which increases the reading and sorting accuracy significantly. A continuous fence conveyor ensures final storage and retrieval into the four floor levels.

Industrial Robot Specialists TM Robotics (Europe) Ltd exhibiting Toshiba Machine at Southern Manufacturing 2015
ith Southern Manufacturing, the UK's largest regional manufacturing technology, electronics and subcontracting exhibition just around the corner, industrial robot specialists TM Robotics (Europe) Ltd will show one of the highly capable TH-A series
W robots from TOSHIBA MACHINE application, guided by a vision system. on a pick-and-place From 10th–12th February
2015 on stand Number A54, TM Robotics (Europe) Ltd will be showcasing a mid-range TH450A SCARA, just one model of a series that offers a market-leading range of options, in arm lengths from 180mm to 1200mm, capable of handling up to 20Kgs payload. TH- A SCARA range is complimented by THL, lightweight, low cost range and THP series of rugged, high-duty SCARA robots designed to run continuously at maximum speed in a wide range of industrial and pharmaceutical environments. Using a programming platform with common front-end across all robot families Toshiba Machine also offer 6 axis and a wide range of Cartesian axes to suit all industry requirements. TM Robotics will again be exhibiting the Toshiba Machine robot alongside Kawasaki Robotics and one of their vision partners, Fisher Smith, who will select and integrate the vision system. With Toshiba Machine focussing on fast and accurate robots for low and mid-range payloads and Kawasaki Robotics specialising in palletising, welding and higher payload robots, visitors will have access to a robot for every conceivable application. With an impressive range of highly versatile and cost-effective robotics solutions, accompanied by some of the most user-friendly software packages, if Southern Manufacturing 2015 is the next big show on your events calendar, a visit to the TM Robotics stand may well be the answer to your automation needs for 2015 and beyond.
