Hart’s waste effort
Hart Door Systems’ (Hart) expertise in the Energy from Waste sector is fast being acknowledged with more contracts for its Speedor Storm doors just announced. One of the latest is the
replacement of 17 doors using Hart’s Storm doors which are designed for frequent use in high traffic situations and where exceptional wind resistance of up to 70 mph is required. “Bearing in mind Climate Change and the many issues arising, the successful development of
Speedor Storm is timely,” says a Hart’s spokesman. “This particular contract replaces non-Hart doors where the supply of spare parts was an issue and
the door type being replaced was not fit for the high-traffic situation on-site and all the other issues arising on Energy from Waste sites.”

SICK Stereo Camera Makes Light Work of Robot Integration
SICK has extended its innovative family of 3D snapshot vision sensors with the launch of the SICK Visionary S stereo camera, enabling precise, high-speed capture of 3D colour images for integration into robot guidance and quality inspection applications.
The SICK Visionary S 3D snapshot camera combines stereoscopic
vision with projected structured illumination to capture up to 30 high-resolution 3D images every second and output colour and depth values directly to a PLC or robot controller.
With a working range up to 2.5m, the IP67-rated SICK Visionary S
is ideal for a variety of rugged industrial uses. Its real-time, rapid streaming of high-resolution RGB and depth values makes light work of 3D recognition and dimensioning tasks for both moving and stationary objects. So, it is an ideal partner for robotic bin picking,

palletising and de-palletising applications, as well as for quality and completeness checking on high-speed consumer goods lines.
“The Visionary S addresses the need for an accurate 3D Snapshot
camera that extends the options for machinebuilders and system integrators to engineer robot guidance solutions. Its rapid on-board image processing and 50 ms response times makes fast picking frequencies possible at an accessible price/ performance level.
“Add its powerful visualisation tools, Gigabit Ethernet interface,
wide compatibility with communications protocols and common programming languages, and you have a versatile and intelligent partner for 3D vision integration. It’s easy to adjust the camera and filter settings and to configure with SICK’s SOPAS software engineering tool.”

Wieland’s new wipos PSW packs a punch with its powerful performance
and wide range of input options
Wieland Electric has added the wipos PSW to the company’s wipos power supply series to offer a wider range of input options. The wipos range is compact, reliable and robust, incorporating essential features for drive technology applications and making machines and equipment safer. The wipos PSW series has a 1, 2 or 3-phase input
AC (187-550 Vac) + DC (250-750 Vdc), making it ideally suited for worldwide use. The units have a high efficiency of > 92 % and > 35 % overload (power boost) for 5s with different variants for 24/48 V DC output. The slim and powerful wipos PSW units have
compact dimensions of only W x H x D = 73 x 140 x 137 mm and provide a performance that far outweighs their size.

MICA now available with a secondary Ethernet interface
The industrially-suited MICA Edge Computer is now available with a secondary Ethernet interface. It can be used to easily exchange and process data between two Ethernet networks, including wired-to- wireless gateway applications. With many Industry 4.0 applications, it is
necessary to separate networks and send data back and forth between Ethernet protocols without permitting external applications direct access to a corporate network. As a result, HARTING has added a second interface for these applications to its MICA Edge Computing device. An additional USB interface can also be used for adding further capabilities or a USB storage device. This is because, unlike a router, MICA can also carry out complex data transformations and aggregations. The secondary Ethernet interface is provided via the functional circuit board and expands the modular system of the MICA platform.
