THE CLOUD FOR AUTOMATION Spectra introduces UniCloud, a complete no-code IIoT platform for manufacturers and operators of devices, machines and automation. The new online portal provides the ability to visualise, store and analyse all process data processed anywhere on Unitronics controllers. The charm of this new type of portal lies in the simple configuration of one's own IIoT application, which requires no programming knowledge or expertise from cloud professionals. With simple "click-and-select", one can create one's own cloud application tailored to specific needs and thus, for example, present, manage and further process machines or their data online. Attractive dashboards are created by simply configuring ready-made objects such as graphs, tables, maps, etc. and display current, historical or aggregated data from one or more machines. UniCloud is secure! End-to-end (E2E) protection ensures end-to-end security of data access, including the assignment of user roles with defined access rights. Other built-in protection mechanisms include Encrypted REST APIs over TLS, MQTT X.509 authentication, anti-virus and Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules. All PLC models of the UniStream, Samba and Vision series can be connected to UniCloud. This can be done in new installations as well as in existing, running installations, without the need for program changes. UniCloud subscriptions are available in different packages, depending on the amount of data ("tags") and the update rate (10 s to 5 min). UniCloud is free for the first 3 months.

Our classics in new small size – fast and compact for small cable packages. Actually, we don’t need to introduce these series anymore, since they are some of our most popu- lar cable carriers. These next generation plastic cable carriers are well-known, amongst others, for their diversity, quality and long service life. We have now added a new family member to each product family – namely “little sisters”, which are especially compact versions for small installation spaces. UNIFLEX Advanced 1250 closes a still open gap, because now the UNIFLEX Advanced series covers all sizes from its predecessor series. But that’s not all! It is more stable than its prede- cessor model and can substitute it 1:1 – without any changes to the machine, as, conveniently, dimensions and connections have been retained. The stable and closed design of this cable carrier is standard when it comes to guiding hydraulic hoses. It is especially suitable for applications e.g. lifts or vehicle conveyors. You may also know our series EasyTrax® and QuickTrax® as „quick opener”: Each of them is designed for fast opening and thus reduces costs for repair and maintenance. EasyTrax® allows an extremely fast cable laying by simply pressing cables and hoses into its flexible lamella crossbars. QuickTrax® cable carriers have 2K crossbars with film hinges that open almost by themselves when the release mechanism is slightly pressed. This makes cable laying and substitution particularly easy. Areas of application are in printing industry, material handling, automation and the packaging industry. ∕∕ compact size for small installation spaces ∕∕ small pitch for smooth run ∕∕ low vibration due to integrated damping ∕∕ quietly operating ∕∕ gliding surface for long service life ∕∕ for unsupported applications ∕∕ suitable for horizontal circular applications

Our proven all-rounder has grown even bigger – even more height, even more width and multiple possibilities to open it. The new UA1995 continues the success story of the UNIFLEX Advanced series – according to the motto “think big”! Because this time we have thought in large dimension indeed and have created plenty of space for all kinds of cables and hoses. This is our response to our customers needs: After all, modern machines provide more integrated features while improving their output. This means also growing requirements for both – cables and cable carriers. With its extra space, the UA1995 is well prepared for future tasks in the machine tool industry – on a global scale. The four-part chain links can be stored and transported in a space-saving manner and are very easy to install on site. Speaking about installation: For a quick an easy cable laying, we offer UA1995 in an additional version that can be opened on both sides. In general, the cable carrier is easy to handle. Additional features are that it is also particularly smooth-running and low-wear – truly a real all-rounder! Last not least, we have of course considered environmental aspects as well. By using up to 35 % of pure regrind, the UA1995 is particularly sustainable.

The intelligent protocol converter for all devices with a serial interface The UNIGATE CL protocol converters connect devices such as B. Automation components via their serial interface with the desired fieldbus or Industrial Ethernet standard. The RS232, RS485 and RS422 interfaces are integrated as standard. The communication between the serial connection and the bus takes place either by configuring the device and selecting a common protocol such as e.g. B. Modbus ASCII, Modbus RTU (master or slave), 3964 (R) (e.g. for RK512) or alternatively by controlling the device via a script for protocols such as e.g. B. DIN measurement bus, DIN 19244 or other proprietary protocols. This script is created with the free PC tool 'Protocol Developer' and offers you the greatest possible flexibility for complex tasks. You decide whether you want to program it yourself or commission Deutschmann Automation to do it. The protocol converters are available as narrow DIN rail modules according to IP20. All modules for the different bus variants have an identical mechanical structure, so they can be used flexibly or replaced without additional effort. This makes it possible to supply the end devices with any desired bus for optimal integration into the environment. A special feature of the UNIGATE CL series is the brand labeling. With the customer-specific design, Deutschmann not only offers you the option of pre-configuring the device and choosing different housing colors, but also the attachment of your logo.

<b>HMI AND SPS IN ONE</b> For system integrators, compact all-in-one controllers offer a particularly convenient way to implement interactive control tasks. If the appropriate programming software is also included in the package, implementing the tasks is particularly easy. The All-in-One controllers of the UniStream series combine a touch display and the controller as well as numerous combinations of analog and digital inputs and outputs in a compact housing. Diagonals of 5", 7" and 10" are available for the touch displays. A highlight is the modern, user-friendly, graphically oriented programming software UniLogic® Studio, which is included free of charge with the purchase. This software package is used to program both the HMI and the controller. This considerably reduces both the purchase costs and the programming effort. If the number of integrated I/Os is not sufficient, it can be expanded via Ethernet to a total of 2,048 remote I/Os. Additional fieldbus components from other manufacturers are easily integrated via Modbus RTU/TCP or CANopen. A special feature of the UniStream series is the support of the MQTT protocol, with which messages can be both published and subscribed to. This facilitates the way into the cloud. Furthermore SNMP, VNC, FTP, SMS, e-mail and communication via GSM/GPRS modem are supported. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
