ColorMax™-1000 Super Range, its newest color sensor with a 150-mm operating range and a 25-mm illuminated spot. The long range sensing capability allows the sensor to be mounted away from moving machinery parts, protecting it from potential mechanical damage. The large illuminated spot generates a large data sample that provides more information about the color the sensor is analyzing. More information provides higher accuracy and speed.

The long-range feature will initially be available in the full RGB analog and the HEX 15 color models. Primary applications for the ColorMax-1000 Super Range sensor include carpet, paper and plastic sheet manufacturing processes and converting.

CNTX contrast sensor, the highest resolution white LED contrast sensor on the market. The new sensor boasts the industry’s highest resolution, and it is the only contrast sensor able to reliably detect up to 50 gray scale levels.

Unlike many other sensors, the CNTX has a two-digit display that shows the values of a background and a mark to indicate available switching margin.

Also unlike other contrast sensors, the CNTX has the ability to lock the controls so the operator cannot change the settings and cause errors. The output is automatically configured to PNP or NPN upon power-up, aiding in setup. The light source intensity is variable so it can be adapted to the background.

CMYX color mark sensor, one of the fastest color mark sensor on the market by at least 35 percent. The new sensor boasts the industry’s highest resolution, and it is the only color mark sensor able to reliably detect color marks smaller than 2mm.

Color mark sensors detect registration marks and other features used in a wide variety of printing and packaging applications. The CMYX’s operating speed of 25 microseconds enables it to detect 0.5 mm PHARMA-CODE packaging control marks at speeds of 2000 ft/min. and standard size color marks at speeds exceeding 10,000 ft/min. allowing for increased production speeds. In addition, special high-contrast sensitivity enables reliable detection of faint marks — even 10 percent yellow on a glossy white background.

Haydon Switch & Instrument

Booth 1432

The Haydon Linear Rail System uses a precision leadscrew assembly to provide controlled positioning along the axis of a robust linear slide. The Linear Rail System consists of a stationary base with a load bearing carriage that travels along a custom-extruded wear resistant aluminum rail. A Haydon powered Linear Rail System uses either a Haydon size 17 hybrid external linear actuator or for greater performance, an optional size 17 hybrid double stack external linear actuator integrated into the slide for a complete single axis positioning system, or the system may be is provided with various leads and shaft end configurations that accommodate virtually any source of rotary power.

National Instruments

Booth 1542

National Instruments is expanding its vision hardware product offering with the NI Smart Camera. The NI Smart Cameras are the first in a family of Smart Cameras that feature image processing directly on the camera sensor to create an all-in-one embedded device ideal for automated inspection applications. NI Smart Cameras are ideally suited for industrial vision applications including packaging inspection, assembly verification, 1D and 2D code reading, and motion guidance. NI Smart Cameras reduce cost and time of inspection by processing images on the camera with a PowerPC processor capable of running NI Vision Builder for Automated Inspection (AI) software, included with the NI Smart Cameras, or the NI LabVIEW Real-Time module and the entire suite of NI vision algorithms. G2 Technologies builds industrial customer solutions utilizing NI Products such as CVS and Smart Camera. These solutions improve customer processes by allowing more exacting inspection, decreasing inconsistencies, and increasing product quality, thus saving time and money.

Neugart USA LP

Booth 1224

NEUGART introduces the “DMA” (Direct Motor Attachment) option for the PLE series planetary servo gearheads.
The gearbox ring-gear-housing is directly mounted to the motor face, eliminating the input housing. The motor pinion (sun-gear) is attached to the customized motor shaft. This option makes the integration of motor and gearhead easy; reducing the length by up to 35%, saving mounting space, weight, and cost.
Detailed drawings, exact specifications of the required motor flange and shaft modifications to facilitate the Direct Motor Attachment (DMA) are provided. The required parts are available from stock.

When overall payload is a concern in larger robotic applications RAD’s new Spring-Assist Collision Sensor can help. The U-4622-SA offers nearly double the capacity of our standard model with no increase in height/diameter and a mass of only 13.5lbs!

RAD Collision Sensors provide crash protection/safety by mechanically detecting when the robot encounters an obstruction, absorbing the crash energy and signaling the robot to stop.

The Spring-Assist Ultimatic™:
* Sends signal to system within 4-10ms
* Absorbs crash energy without air pressure loss
* Resets automatically to ± 0.0005" (XYZ), ± 0.017º rotationally
* Maintains significant resistance even at 0psi
* Provides angular, rotational, axial compliance
