The integration of a human machine interface (HMI) and programmable logic controller (PLC) provides a lean automation solution. Lean manufacturing is a proven, powerful method to boost efficiencies in production processes. Similar concepts and practices that eliminate “waste”—unnecessary equipment and process steps—can be applied to the design, construction, and support of automation systems to enable increased productivity and reliability, yielding increased efficiency. Combining visualization and control means:
More than any other time, there are a range of trends in both control system architecture and manufacturing that are coming together to support an integrated HMI-PLC. For OEMs and control engineers alike, this means it is easier to build smaller, smarter machines faster—freeing both OEMs and engineers from having to use controllers and equipment simply because of a familiarity and a prohibitive cost to change. Read More Mencom produces over 2,500 variations of its Panel Interface Connectors (PICs.) PICs mount to the outside of the control panel and house various connectors enabling users to gain access to a PLC, PAC or computer without opening the control cabinet.In accordance with NFPA 70E standards, opening control cabinets requires training and protective gear to prevent safety hazards such as arc flash. With a panel interface connector, the equipment can be reached for maintenance and testing without these extra precautions. A typical PIC will contain a power supply (single, duplex, GFCI) and one or more connectors commonly used for programmable devices. These connectors include D-Sub, RJ45, USB, Ethernet and DeviceNet and others. Whatever your project, Mencom has or can create the Interface to meet the needs of your application.

The 100% stainless steel housings deliver durability more than 20 times that of the competition's brass and plastic housings, and Black Armor™ coated weld-immune models are available to repel even the hottest slag particles. Pigtail-connect versions feature integral high-visibility power supply and target presence LEDs. X-Series Pile Driver extended range inductive sensors are also available in 12 mm, 18 mm, and 30 mm diameters to deliver sensing ranges of 5 mm, 10 mm, or 15 mm - up to 2.5 times longer range than traditional inductive sensors. "An inductive proximity sensor's detection range is a function of its size. Larger styles inherently offer longer sensing ranges than smaller, less powerful models. When selecting a proximity sensor , smaller versions aren't typically chosen due to their limited sensing range," says Marcel Ulrich, Product Manager, Pepperl+Fuchs. "Instead, restricted mounting space often forces machine designers to reluctantly accommodate the limited distance. The drawback to short sensing distances is clear; a closely mounted, loose-tolerance target is more likely to impact and damage the sensor, causing downtime. Additionally, loose or irregularly-shaped targets can also generate erroneous part counts as they enter and exit the sensing field." ABB Webinars: Arc Flash and other hazards in the data center. Increasing power densities and higher voltages in data centers have made mission critical facilities more reliable and energy efficient than ever before. However, with more power coursing through these facilities, human error can have catastrophic consequences for equipment and cause injuries and fatalities to workers. Learn about these hazards from industry experts Doug Sandberg and Dave Sjogren in this 60-minute webinar brought to you by Mission Critical magazine. More important, you will learn how to prevent arc flash and avoid other dangerous situations in the data center and what steps to take to protect your workers and your equipment.
Read More Below for a glance at the newest sensors in the ML4.2 and ML6 photoelectric sensor families. Sharpest, Most Precise Sensing What: ML4.2-8-H-21-22-IR/40b/95/110 Why: These models offer the sharpest sensing distance cut-off and smallest switching hysteresis on the market for background suppression sensors. The first model, also available with a visible red emitter, senses black and white color extremes within an extremely tight sensing window. A black test object is sensed up to 20 mm from the sensor, a white test object is sensed up to 21 mm, and no targets are detected at or beyond 22 mm. This compares to the standard version ML4.2-8-H-20 which enables background suppression at 25 mm from the sensor. Where: They should be considered when the object to be detected is just 1-3 mm in front of the background, such as detecting a piece of cardstock on a belt or if paper is angled or straight in a feeder.

Divergent beam sensing is an ideal way to detect transparent (clear) objects, such as a moving web of shrink wrap or PET bottles, without using a reflector. This is because some portion of the clear object is always perpendicular to the wide beam angles of the emitter and receiver. When detecting clear objects, the sensing range is usually within 50% of the rated maximum sensing distance. Divergent beam photoelectric sensors are also suited to detect small or glossy objects, from wires and yarns to shiny foil pouches. The ML100 divergent beam photoelectric sensors should be used in lieu of the older ML20 divergent models, both of which have the same mounting pattern. Learn more about the New ML100 Miniature Photoelectric Sensors Models.
