INDUSTRY UPDATE
ROLEC’s Advanced HMI Enclosures For Machine Control Equipment
R
OLEC’s advanced HMI enclosures now include
multiPANEL, profiPANEL and profiPANEL STANDARD – giving industrial electronics designers more choice. Elegant multiPANEL is
best suited to small-volume applications requiring advanced functionality and cutting-edge aesthetics. Versatile profiPANEL is for higher-volume applications, notably machine building. Both models enable
virtually borderless, flush-fit installation of a front plate or glass. They are manufactured from aluminium profiles, enabling custom sizes from 150 x 150 mm to 800 x 800 mm. Smart, modern multiPANEL (IP 65) is available in depths of 70 mm and 85 mm, each in three variants offering
different rear doors. The front plate is connected permanently to the main body. Anodised silver profiPANEL (IP 65) enclosures offers more depths from 60 mm to 300 mm. There is a hinged
lockable rear door. A keyboard/desk unit is also available as standard. An economical ex-stock option is profiPANEL STANDARD (IP 65) which is 60 mm deep and available in four plan
sizes from 400 x 400 mm to 600 x 520 mm. Suitable for 10” to 21” screens. Accessories for these HMI enclosures include keyboard and mouse trays, handles and wall pivot mounts. ROLEC
recommends mounting the enclosures on its suspension arms. The enclosures and suspension arms can be supplied fully customised.

ILS FlexWipe meets
growing demand for, safe, reliable pallet
labelling – no matter what the temperature
P
rint and apply labelling specialist Industrial Labelling Systems (ILS) is
seeing strong demand for its FlexWipe pallet labelling system. The combination of a small footprint, fast operation and market-leading safety standards together with the ability to work across a wide variety of temperatures down to -28°C have revolutionised pallet labelling and made it a firm favourite with customers. To date ILS has installed over 80 FlexWipe systems
across Europe, USA and Australia and is continuing to see demand grow in the past 18 months, particularly in the cold storage sector. Customers include NewCold and Lineage Logistics who have over 40 FlexWipe systems operating between them. The robust design of the FlexWipe applicator
means it is capable of operating in ultra-cold climates, without the need for additional heaters or special cabinets. Working with varying pallet surfaces – uneven, rough, or cold – the FlexWipe “wipes” accurately over the label after it has been tapered, ensuring labels stick even under the poorest adherence conditions.

C New Incremental
Encoder Supports Larger Shaft Sizes,
Addresses Lead Time Constraints
C
UI Devices’ Motion and Control Group today announced the introduction of a new series to
its AMT incremental encoder family. Based on the existing AMT13 series package, the new AMT13A series is not subject to silicon related lead time constraints and can serve as a drop-in replacement for AMT13 encoder models. AMT13A encoders offer 16 quadrature resolutions from 96 to 4096 PPR, selectable via an on-board DIP switch, while supporting larger motor shaft sizes from 9 mm to 15.875 mm (5/8 inch). Thanks to CUI Devices’ proprietary capacitive
ASIC technology, the AMT13A series delivers high levels of durability, accuracy, and immunity to environmental factors. It features compact radial and axial package types with a locking hub for ease of installation and low power consumption of 8 mA at 5 V. The AMT13A series also carries an operating temperature range from -40 to 125°C and offers differential line driver versions.
