The Han S connector range from HARTING offers secure connection technology for modular battery storage systems. The compact and flexible housings accommodate contacts for currents up to 200 A and 1500 V and the bulkhead housings can be flexibly rotated through 360 degrees.

With their flexibly mountable cable glands with bayonet lock, the Heavycon Evo industrial connectors from Phoenix Contact meet the needs of a wide range of applications. The cable outlet direction can be determined directly at the installation site and changed again at any time.

By using frequency inverters, plant and machine manufacturers can get even more out of their motors. This is because they allow universal drive machines to be operated flexibly. With this in mind, KEB Automation has introduced asynchronous geared motors with integrated frequency inverters.

Development means progress, advancement. This is exactly how engineering is understood at power products specialist SCHURTER. Ideas create new products that help the company and its customers move forward.

It has been reported that around 90 per cent of data generated in a manufacturing plant typically doesn't get used to build insights that can really help the business. Here, Beth Ragdale, product manager at automation specialist Beckhoff UK, explains the value of consolidating production line data.

Thomson Industries has introduced a rotating-nut stepper motor linear actuator (SMLA) with a rotary encoder as a standard option. Machine designers with applications requiring positional feedback can now specify the full line of SMLAs integrated with this enhancement.

The new PT 2,5-2MTB Push-in terminal blocks from Phoenix Contact have two disconnect zones. In conjunction with the three double function shafts, they enable a wide range of distribution applications to be realised in a small space. Compared to a standard disconnect terminal block, Phoenix Contact says the compact PT 2,5-2MTB reduces the length of the terminal strip by half.

A new line of cost-effective servo motors from Applied Motion Products. (AMP) is aimed at high-throughput precision motion tasks from 100 W to 3 kW with rated torque to 11 Nm and speeds to 6000 rpm. The M5 series is available with comprehensive technical support in the UK and Europe from Mclennan.

The EMpro energy measuring device product family from Phoenix Contact is now paving the way for the Internet of Things. The energy data can be integrated into local networks with just a few simple commands from any browser through the integrated REST interface.

Engineers may overlook fastener choice when designing their products, but fasteners are a key product design consideration, as the experts at Southco explain.
