INDUSTRY UPDATE SICK Launches its Safe EFI-pro System for Network Integration W


ith the launch of its Safe EFI-pro System, SICK has delivered standard industrial Ethernet-based safety network integration for highly-adaptive and dynamic safeguarding in automated production and logistics environments to


SIL 3/PLe.


Nordson EFD Introduces New GV Series Gantry Fluid Dispensing Robot with Vision





The CCD camera converts pixels into digital values to deliver precise, high-quality images. The proprietary dispensing software confirms workpiece presence and placement and automatically adjusts as in-process variations occur.





Working envelopes from 400 mm to 800 mm make the GV Series ideal for precision fluid dispensing onto substrates requiring large work envelopes





Ensure market-leading dimensional positioning accuracy and deposit placement repeatability at +/- 0.02 mm for the 400 mm gantry robot and +/- 0.01 mm for the 800 mm gantry robot.

The SICK Safe EFI-pro System is a single-source solution that provides the foundation for simpler, more productive and responsive machinery safety, particularly valuable for dynamic applications like autonomous vehicles and human/robot collaboration. It comprises the SICK microScan3 EFI-Pro safety laser scanner and the SICK Flexi Soft safety controller with EFI-Pro gateway. The innovative SICK Flexi Soft EFI-pro


Gateway facilitates simple and safe system integration via EtherNet/IPTM CIP SafetyTM and EFI-pro, allowing connection to SICK EFI-Pro devices like the microScan3 as well as third party CIP- SafetyTM devices like robot controllers from leading manufacturers, remote I/O modules and safety PLC’s. Connected to SICK’s Flexi Soft modular controller, the system provides scalability, facilitating the integration of encoders for Safe Motion Control, devices with analogue outputs, hardwired I/O as well as additional gateways for non-safe communication to any other network such as PROFINET or ETHERCAT, for example.


The SICK microScan3 EFI-pro safety laser scanner enables simultaneous field evaluation with the possibility of


monitoring up to eight protective fields at the same time on one device. The user can also configure up to 128 monitoring cases per scanner. Powered by SICK’s robust safeHDDMTM scanning technology, the microScan3 EFI-pro minimises machine downtime, even in challenging industrial conditions such as welding, reflections, high ambient light, dirt and dust.

HMK Automation Group adds new RobotiQ Servo Grippers to the extended collaborative robot range T


Leading supplier of world-class products for automation applications, HMK, has recently announced a UK partnership with RobotiQ, the leading provider of collaborative servo grippers, to add their two and three finger grippers to their already impressive range of pneumatic and servo actuated gripper products from Schunk and Zimmer. HMK’s expanding range of gripper range are


compatible with the complete TECHMAN range of collaborative robots “Cobots”, from the TM5 to the TM12 and TM14. The official UK distributor of TECHMAN robotics, HMK continues to spearhead innovation with the introduction of the most advanced range of collaborative robots (Cobots) pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in automation and implementing the future of industry


automationmagazine.co.uk


4.0 today. The recently launched TM12 and TM14 Collaborative robots from TECHMAN have expanded opportunities within larger material handling applications. Featuring an increased payload and reach capability the TM12 and TM14 still remain, Simple, Smart & Safe. With an achievable reach of 1300mm and 12kg payload for the TM12 and 1100mm reach and 14kg payload for the TM14 Cobot. The expanded range offers class leading payload and reach capabilities. All the TM range of Cobots features simple


programming, innovative integrated vision capabilities together with the latest safety functionality, all leading to rapid deployment in a huge variety of applications. The TM range now also comes with the option of “advanced vision” identification functionality completely integrated


within the collaborative robot platform which vastly increases the cobot’s range of applications. This includes functions for shape matching, barcode & QR code reading, colour recognition, OCR, conveyor tracking and 3D Bin picking, features typically only found on high additions to the robot arm.
