Insertion probe with new plastic handle |
| |
 Insertion
probes from JUMO have been used successfully in the food industry
for many years. The market is increasingly demanding smaller designs.
Which is why a compact plastic handle has been developed for insertion
thermocouples and resistance thermometers. The new handle feels really
good, is practical and makes life easier. Not only that, but its low
weight ensures that the insertion probe does not slip out of the product
during cooking. The plastic used is food safe, resistant to oil-based
and acidic cleaning agents and suitable for temperatures up to 260 °C,
for brief periods as high as 300 °C. Of course, it has the usual
industry features such as protection rating IP 67, high mechanical
strength, imperviousness to steam and high pressure resistance. The
measuring insert can be set out as a thermocouple and resistance
thermometer in the familiar designs with one, two, three or four test
points. Other options include a concentric point or angled tip made from
stainless steel and different cable lengths and cable endings. Insertion
probes from JUMO ... |

New Parabolic Probe for the Detection of
Distant Compressed Air Leakages and Partial Discharges |
| |
 SONOTEC’s
new parabolic probe for the SONAPHONE devices identifies sound emissions
in the ultrasonic frequency range caused by compressed air leakages and
electric partial discharges. The leakages and smallest leaks within
compressed air systems, industrial plants and machineries as well as
within hidden pipes are detected quickly and reliably. Even leakages
that are up to 20 m away from the testing site are detected due to the
great operating distance of the SONOSPOT. The parabolic probe also
identifies leakages at hidden spots. The use of the SONOSPOT leads to a
reduction of energy costs and to a higher safety in operations since
damages can be identified at a very early stage. The high sensor
sensitivity and the very precise directivity allow the detection of
electric ... |

Classic Machine Tool Metrology Book Now A
Free Download |
| |
|
Know Your Machine Tool by Tim Sheridan was released in 1991 and helped
machine tool metrologists, operators, and researchers measure and
understand the capabilities of their machine tools. The book is now a
free download from Lion Precision (sponsor and publisher) in the
Technical Library portion of their web site at www.lionprecision.com.
The book was the first to show practical, step-by-step processes for
measurements of spindle error motions according to the ANSI B89 standard
(Axes of Rotation, Methods of Specifying and Testing). Spindle error
motions on machine tools are responsible for errors in feature location,
feature roundness and surface finish. In disk drives, spindle error
motions limit data density. The maximum speed of high-speed drills is
limited in part by spindle error motions. Precision spindle and machine
tool manufacturers ... |

SF Series from Michell Instruments
provides cost-effective means to control moisture |
| |
 The
new SF Series from Michell Instruments offers a step forward in
the cost-efficient control of moisture via dew point measurement in all
industrial areas where increased energy savings and efficiency create a
unique competitive advantage. In applications such as refrigeration
dryers the process is often controlled using temperature measurement.
Adding an efficient moisture control via dew point measurement enhances
the efficiency of the process and allows significant savings in energy
costs. With a measurement range of –40 to +60°C dp the SF Series dew
point transmitter satisfies customers’ needs for precise and stable
measurement not only in the refrigerant dryer industry but also in a
range of other energy critical applications like pneumatic systems. The
SF series trace moisture sensor can be mounted directly into the output
of the dryer and is protected by a HDPE disk filter, which prevents
contamination of the sensor by particulate matter without disturbing the
sample flow. Although small in size the SF series dew point transmitter
safely works in pressures up to 20 bar.

Measuring large distances using
time-of-flight measurement |
| |
 Micro
Epsilon has extended its product range with new laser sensors. In
addition to the existing time-of-flight sensors there are four new
complementary models. Under the names optoNCDT ILR 1181, 1182, 1183 and
1191, these sensors provide new approaches to solving automation tasks.
The 80 Series functions according to the phase comparison principle,
whereby a precise distance measurement is possible. They achieve a
measuring range of 30m for use on diffuse reflecting surfaces and 150m
when using a special reflector, which guides the laser pulse back into
the optical system for large measuring distances. The optoNCDT ILR 1191
operates according to the “Time-of-Flight” principle and achieves a
measuring range of 3,000m with a reflector; a measuring range of 300m is
possible without using the reflector. With a linearity of between ±3mm
and ±5mm or ±20mm to ±0mm for the 1191 series and a repeat accuracy of
less than 0.5mm, these sensors are ideal for precision measurement
tasks. ... |

Pin-point detection of glue traces |
| |
 Leuze:
The system VSU12 comprising two ultrasound sensors and a separate
indicating unit was developed specifically for the reliable detection of
glued joints in paper webs. This system is able to recognize glue joints
independently of the roller and glue material, the adhesive tape colour
and the execution of the glue joint. As the ultrasound sensors are able
to recognize the glued joints either within a roller or between a main
and a secondary roller not only almost irrespective of the material,
colour and properties of the gluing material, but also independently of
the roller material, the same glue joint sensor can be used to process
not only paper but also film material. And furthermore, the system
adapts automatically after a change of material without even requiring a
teach-in process for the new material. All the operator does is to
preselect the basic material at the indicator unit once. The indicator
unit then adjusts automatically to the noise permeability of the roll
material. The maximum web speed at which this system ... |

Baumer Miniature sensors - Small,
lightweight and precise |
| |
 For
applications in restricted space, Baumer offers the most diverse
miniature sensors for convincing and precise solutions. The small IWRM
04 distance-measuring inductive sensors, with a diameter of 4 mm and a
housing length of only 30 mm, are the most compact inductive analog
sensors on the market. With a short response time of 0,5 ms and the high
resolution of 1 μm, they are without equal in this size class. The FHDK
04 optical miniature sensor provides a compelling argument with very
high efficiency background suppression. The Baumer developers were able
to accommodate this sensor in a housing measuring only 4 x 6 x 45 mm.
With a bracket for profiles and only one groove plate, this sensor can
be secured in any commercially available extrusion frame. Several
sensors may be operated next to one another without any mutual optical
interference. In addition, the IO-Link communications standard is
supported. Ultrasonic sensors ... |
