With the FLC+, we are expanding the FLC series for components that require slightly more installation space due to their geometry. Here, we place the process modules directly on the floor and simply omit the tabletop on work surfaces; everything else remains the same. The modular design of the FLC+ allows us to always implement the optimal assembly process. We are flexible in our choice of process modules and connect them as efficiently as possible using robots.

The flexLock safety locking device with RFID monitoring is characterized by an infinitely variable actuation radius of 180°. It thus offers a high level of flexibility for the safety locking function of doors and flaps – even with small door radii. The clearly visible LEDs show the device status continuously at all viewing angles. The open locking head and the rounded housing of the flexLock allow for easy cleaning. In addition, the high offset tolerance ensures easy mounting and high system availability, even when the door is lowered. Variants for personal or process protection are well suited for use in a wide range of applications up to PL e. The optional escape release allows the locking device to be unlocked from the hazardous area. Your Benefits • Makes machine integration easier thanks to the flexible entry point of the actuator into the locking head − even for applications with small door radii • Provides high manipulation protection at a high coding level • Saves you time and money when cleaning the housing, making it particularly well-suited for use in dirty environments • Ensures a high level of safety thanks to PL e and high locking force • Makes mounting easy and offers you a high machine availability thanks to offset tolerance • Able to be used in hazardous areas that are not fully visible thanks to escape release

The managed PROFINET-Switch supports PROFINET according to Conformance Class B and offers transmission security through ring redundancy as an MRP client. One of the most important functions of a PROFINET-Switch is the prioritizing of the PROFINET frame traffic in the machine network. The managed switch can differentiate whether the frame is a web query, an FTP file transmission, a media stream, or a PROFINET frame. In the case of a high transmission load, the important frames can thus be prioritized in order to prevent frame losses. With a GSDML file you can integrate the switch into your automation environment in the usual way. The supported PROFINET protocols, such as LLPD, DCP, or even diagnosis alarms, can be easily configured and administered. Technical advantages when using a PROFINET-Switch: • Prioritizing of PROFINET frames • Assignment of a configuration via the device name • Neighborhood detection • Device exchange without programming device • Ring redundancy • Each port can be activated or deactivated • Diagnostic messages for network problems • Identification and maintenance data With this variant of the managed PROFINET-Switch, you can connect up to 16 network participants while saving time and money. If you would like to use only one part, we recommend our 4/8-port managed PROFINET-Switches.
