|
Computers are programmable electronic devices that accept data, execute prerecorded instructions, perform mathematical and logical operations, and output results.
|
|
Data acquisition is the digitizing and processing of multiple sensor or signal inputs for the purpose of monitoring, analyzing and/or controlling systems and processes. Signal conditioning includes the amplification, filtering, converting, and other processes required to make sensor output suitable for rereading by computer boards.
|
|
Data acquisition I/O modules or cards have both input and output functionality. Digital or discrete I/O modules include on-off signals used in communication, user interface, or control.
|
|
DC motor drives act as the interface and power supply between a motion controller and a DC motor.
|
|
DC motors are most commonly used in variable speed and torque applications. They include brushless and gear motors, as well as servomotors.
|
|
DC power supplies accept an input power and output the desired form of DC power. Common types of DC power supplies include linear power supplies, switching power supplies, DC-DC converters, and silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) type power supplies.
|
|
Flexible couplings connect rotating members while allowing some degree of angular or parallel misalignment.
|
|
Gearboxes and gearheads are speed reducers that consist of a set of gears, shafts, and bearings in an enclosed housing. In converting inputs to outputs, they reduce RPM and increase torque.
|
|
Gearmotors consist of an AC or DC motor with an integral gearbox or gear head that steps delivered speed up or down.
|
|
Human machine interfaces (HMI) are operator interface terminals with which users interact in order to control other devices.
|
|
Inductive linear position sensors and switches are noncontact devices that determine an object's coordinates (linear or angular) with respect to a reference.
|
|
Inductive proximity sensors detect the presence or absence of an object using a critical distance.
|
|
Industrial computers are similar to personal computers (PC), but they are intended for use on a factory floor or in other harsh environments.
|
|
Light curtains are photoelectric transmitters that project an array of synchronized,parallel infrared light beams to a receiver unit. When an opaque object interrupts one or more beams, the light curtain controller sends a stop signal to the guarded machine. Light curtains are used as personal safety devices around hazardous machinery or for permiter guarding.
|
|
Limit switches are electromechanical or solid state devices that require the physical contact of an object with the switch’s actuator to make the contacts change state.
|
|
Electric linear actuators have an output rod that provides linear motion via a motor driven ball screw, lead screw, or ACME screw assembly. The actuator's load is attached to the end of a screw or rod and is often unsupported.
|
|
Linear limit switches are electromechanical devices that require physical contact between a target object and switch activator to make the contacts change state.
|
|
Linear position sensors is a general search form for all linear position / displacement detection product areas.
|
|
Magnetostrictive position sensors are non-contact linear position sensors that use the momentary interaction of two magnetic fields to produce a strain pulse that moves along a waveguide. One field is from a magnet that moves along the outside of the waveguide. The other field is from the waveguide itself.
|
|
Photoelectric sensors use emitters and receivers to detect the presence, absence, or distance of target objects.
|
|
Power supplies are devices that produce AC or DC power. This grouping includes current sources, DC power supplies, AC-DC adapters, DC-DC converters, AC power sources, and DC-AC inverters.
