Eisele, in cooperation with Murrelektronik, has continued development of its modular kit for multiple connectors to create the MULTILINE E. The adaptive inserts of the MULTILINE can now also be equipped with electrical and electronic connections. The world innovation will be presented to the public for the first time from 25 to 27 November 2014 at SPS IPC Drives in Nuremberg.
The concept of the MULTILINE ADAPTIVE from Eisele is used for connecting functional groups to machines. A modular kit system with adaptive inserts allows combination of exactly the connections required for a particular application, in one multiple connector. Installation expense and set-up times can be reduced significantly. Thanks to the fully modular principle it is possible to combine such different connections as pneumatics, gases, coolants, fluids and even push-in connectors for electric and electronic cables in a single interface.
In addition to combined concepts for different control lines, complete systems are also possible for electrical and electronic connections. In cooperation with Murrelektronik GmbH, Eisele has continued development of the MULTILINE ADAPTIVE, namely to create the MULTILINE E. The adaptive inserts can now also be equipped with electrical and electronic connections from the Oppenweiler-based company. For integration of the E-connectors Eisele optimised the design of the base body, which is available in stainless steel or anodised aluminium. The bore holes for the standardised outer geometry of the adaptive inserts now feature an additional slot to prevent twisting of the electro inserts and guarantee the correct polarity of the E-connectors. The full range of products available from Murrelektronik provides practically unlimited possibilities for configuration of the MULTILINE E.
Eisele's E-connector line is being launched with the widely used and standardised M12 round connectors in different constructions for diverse applications. Options include A-coding, Cube6, Profibus, Ethernet and three to twelve pins. The MULTILINE E will be successively expanded to include additional versions based on customer requirements. In this respect, the entire product spectrum of Murrelektronik is accessible. The same applies to configuration of the connection cables. They are available in drag-chain compatible, halogen-free or chemical-resistant versions or with all standard electric certifications in any length needed.
The connection cables can either be connected to the corresponding adaptive inserts with pre-configured plugs or they are available as ready-made cable assemblies. Of course, users also have the option of ordering cables with free ends for their own custom cabling of the connections. The MULTILINE E provides a multimedia interface which also allows fast and easy adaptation.
