Many companies are now using small robots to perform monotonous or repetitive tasks, enabling employees to concentrate on other tasks. Advanced sensor technology is employed to ensure safety, even without a protective fence.

For their new generation of robots, a manufacturer turned to TDK-Lambda for a compact 250W 24V external power supply. The rugged DTM250PW240D part number was selected with a non-standard cable/connector assembly.

The DTM250 meets both EU and US energy saving legislation, with a 150mW off-load power consumption and an 89% average efficiency level. Special connectors and cable lengths have relatively low minimum order requirements.
