LIGHTWEIGHT CYLINDERS MAXIMISE MOBILITY

Enerpac has expanded its RAC-Series of lightweight aluminium cylinders with new 10 and 15t models for smaller lifts requiring a high degree of portability.

The cylinders, with strokes from 50- 250mm, weigh from just 1.3-2.0kg for the new 10t models and 1.9-2.9kg for the 15t models, through to a maximum of 41.3kg for the top-of-the-range 150t cylinders.

“The new 10t and 15t models, which further extend the range, are particularly useful for maintenance tasks, and in situations where they need to be moved from job to job,” says Enerpac Asia-Pacific Marketing Manager, Tony Cooper.

The RAC-Series has been proven globally for years on lifts between 20 and 150t, where it provides the same lifting performance and safety in half the weight of equivalent steel hydraulic cylinders.

Frequently used in workshops, fabrication and manufacturing applications, Enerpac’s range of RAC single-acting spring-return aluminium cylinders are one of the most widely used ranges in Australasia.

“Cylinders often need to be carried for field maintenance, elevated platform work, up stairs or across processing plants. The light weight and outstanding portability of the RAC-Series cylinders are highly valuable in these situations, especially on remote sites, where they may need to be carried in by air or 4WD,” says Cooper.

The aluminium versions are also perfect for mounting on machines or applications where the weight of the hydraulic components is important. Because of their weight, aluminium hydraulic components are easier to move or remove for maintenance and repair. Their nonmagnetic properties can also be useful in uses around high technology equipment and magnetically or electronically sensitive instruments and applications in resources, processing and exploration.

“Additionally, because it is noncorrosive by design, aluminium has always been a good material for use in many caustic environments, including those encountered in the production of food, electricity, manufactured goods and resources,” adds Cooper.

RAC-Series cylinders incorporate composite bearings on all moving surfaces to prevent metal-to-metal contact, resist side loads and extend cylinder life.

As an ideal complement to the RAC-Series cylinders, Enerpac’s P-392 and P-802 lightweight hand pumps are constructed of composite materials including aluminium to create an optimal lightweight pump and cylinder set. The cylinders can also be powered by Enerpac’s fast-acting electric, air and petrol pumps.

TINY BARCODE READER AIDS AUTOMATION INTEGRATION

New from Datalogic, the Matrix 220 is an ultracompact image-based barcode reader designed for maximum performance and flexibility in high-speed and direct part marking applications.

Measuring just 73 x 47 x 38mm and weighing only 173g the unit features rotating connectors for easy installation and integration into tight spaces encountered in industrial automation and high-speed machinery applications.

The extreme industrial grade Matrix 220 can read barcodes in the widest variety of applications, including difficult lighting, at high speeds and in a large range of temperatures, making it an ideal industrial scanner for automotive, packaging, food and beverage, electrical, document handling, manufacturing and a wide range of Industry 4.0 and automation-ready industries.

“The new Matrix 220 imager has been designed for industries needing a robust and reliable scanner that can support their digitalisation and automation growth,” says Morena Corradini, Identification Product Marketing Manager, Datalogic.

The Matrix 220 imager features IP67 and IP65 industrial grade ratings and can safely operate in temperatures between -10 and +50°C.

The imager’s 1.2Mpixel high-resolution sensor and a new multicore imageprocessing platform offer outstanding performance and the ability to read up to 2mil code resolution.

The Matrix 220 is the first stationary industrial scanner on the market supporting OPC UA (Open Platform Communications Unified Architecture) protocol for Industry 4.0 communication and Digimarc Barcode technology for added value decoding applications.

Matrix 220 is also the first reader of its market segment to embed high dynamic range (HDR) imaging. This improves image quality and contrast for higher code readability in applications with lower exposure time and faster line speeds.

“Integrated HDR imaging provides outstanding efficiency benefits in manufacturing, food and beverage, automotive and industrial applications featuring a production line or conveyor. Parts can be accurately scanned as they move past at speeds, even in low lighting,” says Corradini. The Matrix 220 offers in a single model polarised and diffused light options resulting in optimal illumination on any type of surface. The electronic focus control allows easy remote job changing during assembly line reconfiguration with extreme reading flexibility.

The imager’s ease of use is enhanced by green and red spotlights, the X-Press button and an intuitive human-machine interface, and the configuration software has been improved with an automatic setup mode for quick and easy code reading.

“Another major benefit of the new Matrix 220 imager is that it’s simple to set up, easy to use, and can be easily reconfigured as scanning needs evolve in the future,” says Corradini.

To reduce the number of models, the new Matrix 220 imager comes with a range of front cover accessories – including ESD protection – to enhance its flexibility and simplify stock management.

The imager also offers cost-effective communication and connectivity with Power over Ethernet, Profinet/IO and Ethernet/IP options.

LASER SCANNER IS DESIGNED FOR DYNAMIC MEASUREMENT

Available now from Bestech Australia, the Micro-Epsilon scanControl 30xx/ BL laser scanner is designed for dynamic measurement applications that demand high resolution and accuracy.

This laser scanner is ideal for process automation tasks, but can also be used in production, process monitoring and quality control. It incorporates a high dynamic range feature that provides additional exposure and control features for generating accurate measurements on challenging surfaces.

The scanner is available with a measuring range of 25 and 50mm along the laser line with a capability to measure up to 5.5 million points per second and generate up to 2048 measuring points per profile. This translates to extremely fine x-axis resolution of 12µm, which is ideal for measuring heterogenous surfaces. The sensor also offers a high measuring speed of 10kHz for dynamic and high-speed measurement applications.

The data output from the scanControl 30xx/BL is available via Ethernet or RS422 interfaces. And there is an optional gateway to enable integration with other popular industrial communication interfaces such as Profinet, EtherCAT or

Ethernet/IP industrial control systems.

The scanControl 30xx/BL is also available with blue laser technology. The blue laser diode generates short-wavelength laser light, which hardly penetrates the objects. This provides advantages in some measurement applications particularly when measuring organic materials or objects with reflective surfaces.

Micro-Epsilon scanControl laser profile scanners from are regarded as one of the highest performing laser profile scanners due to their superior accuracy and measuring rate. They are also compact and can be easily integrated in industrial environments and applications where space is limited.

SQUARE WASHERS PROVIDE IMPROVED LOAD DISPERSAL

Boker’s produces nonstandard and customised square and rectangular washers and spacers that provide secure fastening, high turn resistance and even load distribution - even in the tightest clearances. The square and rectangular washers are manufactured from a wide range of materials, with a wide choice of bolt and ID sizes, and in OD sizes up to 305mm (12in) square. Thicknesses range from 0.127 to 4.8mm (0.005 to 0.190in).

“Like round washers, square washers are often used to distribute torque loads in secure fastening applications,” said Chuck Kersey, Assistant Sales Manager. “But precision stamped square and rectangular washers offer the added advantage of being able to work in more restricted spaces and can be used to provide edgeto-edge contact to resist turning.”

Square washers are also widely used as shims, separating the bolt crown from the load being anchored, reducing the likelihood of deformation when tightening, and helping to keep joining surfaces undamaged. This bushing or packing approach is often used in the construction industry or to act as a force-countering support in fastener rods and complex part profiles.

Square and rectangular washers are increasingly used as higher-performance alternatives to round washers in applications subject to vibration. These range from industrial machinery to aerospace and from washing machines to automotive applications.

The square washer effectively expands the diameter of the bolt’s head, thereby improving load dispersal and turning resistance. This helps to maintain fastening integrity, protecting and prolonging the life of connected parts.

Boker’s square and rectangular washers are custom produced to order in short, medium and long runs with fast delivery and minimal tooling costs. 3D prototypes are available.

Options include more than 2000 metallic and nonmetallic materials, including low-carbon sheet steel, various spring steels, stainless steel, aluminium, brass, and copper. Metal finishes include black oxide, nickel and zinc.

ELECTRIC CHAIN CUTTERS ARE SAFER AND MORE DURABLE

Enerpac reckons its new ECC series electric chain cutters are a safer and more durable option for swiftly cutting through high strength industrial chain.

The cutters not only outlast angle grinders or saw blades due to their highly durable blades, but they also incorporate an enclosed, transparent safety guard, protecting the operator’s hands from potential injury while allowing them to monitor the cutting process, for optimum levels of safety and precision.

The ECC-series cutters are available for either 120 or 230V operation, and can handle material hardness up to 43 HRc (Rockwell measure), including chains up to grade 80 with up to 32mm diameter, for industries including manufacturing, mining, rigging, materials handling, transport, oil and gas and marine. Weighing in at 48kg, the ECC chain cutters are capable of producing up to 52.9 tons of force driven by a radial pump and powered by an electric motor. They feature a lifting handle and eyebolt to enable easy positioning and transportation. A doubleacting cylinder improves user control and reduces jamming of the tool.

INDUSTRIAL SCANNER SPEEDS UNATTENDED DATA CAPTURE

Datalogic has developed a novel industrial scanner for use in unattended data-capture systems. The AV500 is a 2D image-based reader that can be used in a wide range of logistics, transport, distribution, retail and airport applications without compromising on accuracy.

“Advantages of unattended data capture solutions include improved accuracy and speed, improved costefficiency, reduced errors, faster turnaround times and reduced frustrations with paperwork or tedious tasks,” says Mike Svetal, Senior Product Manager, Datalogic.

“Datalogic’s new AV500 scanner enables unattended data capture to function to the highest levels of precision and efficiency, due to its industry-leading high-resolution 5Mpixel sensor, image acquisition at 32 frames per second, dynamic or adjustable focus, and multiple lens options,” he adds.

“The AV500 means that multiple reading attempts are no longer needed, because this powerful scanner covers a large area within a single image,” says Svetal. “Additionally, the variable dynamic focus of the optical system increases the working depth of field of the camera, and its toggle mode provides variable focus for applications without the need for distance input, reducing overall system costs without sacrificing performance.”

The rugged scanners come with IP65 rated metal enclosures, suitable for harsh environments with operating temperatures from 0 to +50°C. In-built active cooling maintains optimal processor performance and ensures a long lifecycle, even in the most extreme operating environments.

The AV500 scanners incorporate Datalogic’s patented PackTrack technology, which allows parcels to be accurately scanned, even at high speeds, with distances as little as 100mm between objects.

“PackTrack technology ensures the precise assignment of labels to the right parcels, no matter the shape of the object. By incorporating this into the reading station, Datalogic can provide accurate, error-proof object sorting in real time, with a conveyor loaded to maximum capacity,” says Svetal.

To aid systems integration, the scanners have been designed with an intuitive, multi-language interface for simple installation and configuration. They are fully compatible with WebSentinel Plus for real-time performance monitoring.

The scanners can be interfaced directly with Profinet and Ethernet IP enabled PLCs with two Ethernet TCP/IP and two serial communications interfaces. SyncNet Technology with Master/Slave allows enables a simplified way to network multiple devices in a solution with a single interface.
