Rittal’s new laser machining centre to revolutionise
control panel production at engineering firm In a “UK first”, Runcorn and Ewloe-based electrical engineering firm, LCA Controls, has switched its control panel operations from manual production to laser-machining. The move is expected to transform its productivity and efficiency.
LCA Controls, which recently came under new ownership, has invested in a Rittal Perforex LC 3015 3D laser machining centre – a system which will revolutionise construction of its stainless- steel panels by automating processes previously done by hand. With its with integrated 3D-modelling and computer-aided design (CAD) capabilities, the Perforex LC 3015 can be programmed to manage measuring and machining to an extremely high degree of accuracy, processing panels in a fraction of the former time.
It will allow LCA Controls to service higher volume orders going forward, as well as rapid turnaround of bulk orders – including next day delivery.
“Our investment in this new Rittal Automation Systems machine is incredibly important for the growth of our control panel manufacturing and design business here in the UK,” said Alan Sheppard, Managing Director of LCA Controls.
“It is a statement of intent in terms of our growth, as it means we can deliver more, faster, better, more efficiently for customers across the world without compromising on the quality we’re famous for.”
LCA’s control panels are used across a range of industries including nuclear, food manufacturing, power generation, water and utilities, oil and gas and pharmaceutical companies.
“This new Rittal Automation Systems machine will give us capabilities that are way ahead of the curve on our competitors in the UK,” added Alan.

New compact optical encoders use patented optical switching technology to deliver improved reliability
12.7mm package requires only 7.5mm back panel depth; capable of over 1 million operating cycles
Human Machine Interfaces (HMI) specialist EAO, has introduced a new range of optical encoders that set a new benchmark for compactness and reliability.
Manufactured by Grayhill Inc. the three devices in the 62xG range of optical encoders use a patented optical switching technology that delivers a 2 bit digital quadrature output and are capable of over 1 million switching cycles, which together with a rugged enclosed metal body and a metal shaft ensures that the new optical encoders provide a more durable and more cost effective alternative to conventional mechanical encoders.
62AG Series
The 62AG Series products offers 16, 20, 24 or 32 pulses per revolution and the choice of pinned or flying lead connections in various standard lengths. Other options include high, low or no detent torque and a pushbutton.
62SG Series
With a low 7.5mm back panel depth requirement Grayhill has designed the 62SG Series of optical encoders specifically for space critical applications. The devices are available with high, medium and low detent torque options.
62NG Series
In addition to all the features of the 62AG Series 62NG Series encoders offer a non-turn pushbutton within the encoder shaft that ensures that any legend printed on the cap always remains upright when the encoder shaft is turned.
The new Grayhill 62xG range of optical encoders are part of an extensive encoder, joystick and rotary switch range supplied and supported by EAO Ltd.
