OKW’s ROBUST-BOX IP 66 Plastic Enclosures Now In Tough Polycarbonate
OKW’s ROBUST-BOX (IP 66) plastic enclosures for industrial electronics are now available in tough polycarbonate (PC) as standard, complementing the existing ABS version. ROBUST-BOX is perfect for a wide range of wall-mount and desktop electronic and electrical applications: HVAC, machine building, construction, push-button controllers, sensors, measuring equipment and gateways. PC (UL 94 HB) ROBUST-BOX offers a high resistance to heat for use in adverse environments. Its ABS (UL 94 HB) counterpart is approved as a terminal mounting case.
Both case shells are equipped with pre-moulded threads, enabling designers to choose either the flat or the high part as the base. Each shell has a recessed operating area to protect a membrane keypad or product label.
Corrosion-resistant captured lid fixings are located outside the sealed area. Hidden screw shafts enable wall mounting, either directly or with brackets. Inside, there are fastening pillars for PCBs. Light grey (RAL 7035) ROBUST-BOX is offered in 23 sizes from 80 x 80 x 60 mm to 360 x 240 x 160 mm.
The lid fixings are concealed beneath snap-on cover strips in matching light grey. These cover strips can also be specified as accessories in silver grey, red, yellow, green and blue – ideal for colour-coding or branding. Other accessories also include wall mounting brackets, hinges, DIN rail fastening elements, PCB supports, case feet, pressure equalisation elements, security kits and cable grommets. OKW can supply the enclosures fully customised. Services include machining, lacquering, printing, laser marking, decor foils, special materials, EMC shielding, and installation and assembly of accessories.
Vision Engineering launches AURA digital microscope
Vision Engineering, a global specialist in optical inspection and metrology, has announced EVO Cam AURA, its new digital microscope platform for industrial inspection, quality control and laboratory analysis, succeeding EVO Cam II — the system that became an industry standard across electronics, automotive, aerospace, medical device and research applications worldwide. EVO Cam II built its reputation as a fast, reliable Full HD workhorse. EVO Cam AURA moves the range to true 4K imaging and brings inspection, measurement and reporting into one continuous, on- screen workflow.
4K imaging resolves fine detail — hairline cracks, cell boundaries, contamination, pad geometry — at
the level modern components demand. Bespoke optics and optical zoom take operators from overview to close detail without a lens change, while integrated autofocus and focus stacking bring uneven or complex parts into sharp focus. The biggest shift is software: AURA software puts zoom, focus, lighting, image control, capture, measurement and analysis in one interface, keeping operators in the workflow from live image to documented result. Intelligent auto-recognition keeps magnification and measurement scaling correct, lighting recall restores settings when the ringlight changes, and metadata-based comparison can match live images to a golden sample. Supervisor Mode locks down critical parameters, and presets can be shared across systems and sites to keep results consistent. Built-in productivity tools include pulse, curtain and synchronised comparison modes, plus customisable
go/no-go overlays built directly into presets. Annotation and calibrated measurement sit in the same interface, so images carry annotations, measurements, metadata and timestamps automatically. EVO Cam AURA comes in three models — 4K Touch, 4K and HD (keypad-controlled) — with a choice of illumination, objectives, stands and connectivity. It operates standalone with no PC required, connects via Wi-Fi or LAN, and supports live streaming for remote oversight. Secure variants of all three models suit restricted environments where wireless connectivity, Bluetooth or removable storage cannot be permitted — increasingly requested by EVO Cam II customers in defence and regulated sectors. An optional Oblique and Direct Viewer (ODV) accessory extends the range to angled inspection of connectors and assemblies. EVO Cam AURA is available globally now through Vision Engineering and its network of authorised distributor partners.
