ASCA® is based on the planetary roller screw (PWG) design principle, originally developed for aerospace applications. This allows the rotary motion of a motor to be directly converted into linear motion. High power in a compact design: The dimensions of the ASCA® servo spindle can be made exceptionally compact relative to the power achieved. Since the reduction function of a planetary gearbox is integrated into the design, the motor can be connected directly without an additional gearbox.

With the planetary gearmotors of the THETADRIVE 22-42 and DCPM 16-77 product families, Gerdt Seefrid GmbH in Bad Vilbel sets standards in terms of selection, flexibility, and price/performance ratio. Planetary gearmotors offer designers decisive advantages in some applications. For example, the output shaft of the gearmotor is aligned with the motor shaft connected to the gearmotor input, and the gearmotor volume – measured in terms of the transmittable power – is smaller than with other gearmotor designs. The range of mounted gearmotors in each series includes a variety of reduction ratios. This means that a suitable planetary gearmotor can be found for almost any speed requirement within the limits of technical possibilities. Depending on the series and voltage, no-load speeds from 3 to 3000 revolutions per minute are possible. All data sheets with detailed information on the series presented here, 3D step data, and additional information are available on the website.

Both the software and the pre-calibrated cameras are designed to be used right out of the box, so the system can be ready within minutes. Benefits: -User-friendly system which, thanks to its tailored functions, allows new applications to be created quickly -Reliable part handling regardless of the shape or orientation of the parts thanks to a range of localization functions -Choice of various 3D cameras for high image quality regardless of the component size -System with collision avoidance and overlap detection for ensuring reliable robot operation and short cycle times -Flexible robot integration functions enable the system to be used in arbitrary robot models

A scalable range of integrable, multifunctional power meters are available as plug-in modules for the Bachmann automation system. The measurement of all characteristic grid variables such as voltage, current, power or frequency directly within the control system allows significant correlation with other operational data, as well as an excellent reaction time. The measured data is rapidly calculated without additional delays due to fieldbusses or transceivers. Each module type integrates with the entire M200 IO portfolio and can be used multiple times per CPU. The PLC’s SSL/TLS secured authentication and authorization unit protects the grid measurement modules from unwanted changes and cyberattacks. All types of field busses, including SAE J1939 as well as OPC UA and RTU standards such as IEC 61850, IEC 60870-5-101/-103/-104, DNP3 or Modbus, are available to exchange data with network operators, plant controllers or generation units. Existing type approvals for generation units according to VDE-AR-N 4105/4110, ENA ER G99 and IEEE Std. C37.90 simplify the operational notification and compliance process. Maritime Class Approvals from DNV, BV, LR, ABS, RINA, KR and NK allow implementation on vessels and offshore installations. Compliance with UL/cUL and CSA make the units suitable for applications in North America. A coated version allows grid measurement and protection even in challenging environments with high humidity, from tropical heat to cold starts in polar regions.
