Factory Automation
- 3-phase input 3000W power supplies used in servo motor applications
Servo motors are widely used in industrial manufacturing equipment. They are powered by servo drives that modulate the voltage and current applied to the motor. This enables…
- Automated laboratory test equipment uses multiple types of power supplies
Laboratory testing is becoming increasingly competitive with more companies offering their services. That brings intense cost pressures and a need for a high level of automation. Customisation…
- 250W AC-DC power supply selected for temperature control systems
A controlled testing temperature is required for many applications, the most demanding being aeronautics and space applications. Because equipment has to reproduce environments down to -75oC with…
- Carbon neutral production improvement uses programmable power supplies
Companies with industrial production facilities are reducing their reliance on fossil fuels. The use of renewable energy sources, in conjunction with a high degree of factory automation,…
- DC-DC Converters in Everyday Life
DC-DC converters are part of our everyday life from battery-powered electronic equipment, such as mobile phones and laptops, to solar arrays and wind turbines. Our DC-DC converters…
- System integrator selects 600W programmable supply for factory automation test system
As an alternative to developing in-house test equipment, many manufacturers are using experienced test system companies. A turn-key solution can be quickly developed using modular parts and…
- Modular power supplies used in computed tomography cargo scanners
QM range Computed Tomography (CT) was originally developed for medical applications but is now widely used to scan passenger luggage and air cargo. Unlike traditional 2D X-Ray…
- Digital Inkjet printers use 3kW 3-phase input power supplies
TPS3000-48 Digital inkjet techniques are expanding into very high-speed printing, approaching 1,000m2/hour. The liquid ink from the print head is vaporised into billions of droplets per second…
- Programmable power supplies chosen for electro-polishing systems
Electro-polishing is an alternative for using abrasives to deburr, polish and improve the surface smoothness of metallic objects. The electrochemical process removes material from the workpiece and…
- 20W DC-DC converter produces dual output for battery operated metrology equipment
As factories move towards Industry 4.0, they become more complex to manage. Manufacturers are looking to third parties to handle installation, training, calibration and equipment servicing. These…
