Photoelectrics: The Key to Successful Automation Control
|
| Company: | EMX Industries Inc. |
| As the demand for products in the world-market continues to push production, the requirements for high-speed automated processes capable of providing these products and components at lower cost and higher quality continues to increase. Since subjective, visual inspection techniques are clearly not conducive to high- speed inspection and control requirements, sensors have stepped in to fill this need.

Inexpensive, Innovative Measurement Device Announces Readings
|
| Company: | Omega Engineering, Inc. |
| The UV1000 Universal Verbalizer from Omega Engineering provides an entirely new way for engineers, technicians, and operators to monitor measurement and control information on the plant floor or in the
laboratory. This innovative, patented device accepts signals from nearly any measurement or process control instrumentation, performs a signal to speech conversion, and announces the readings in the
proper engineering units. It is CE-compliant and manufactured in the USA. |

MES: Achieving Real Quality with Virtual Products
|
| Product quality is one of the most important issues
that face manufacturing firms. A company’s
reputation for quality products is difficult to
establish but easily tarnished.
While the design of a product is critical to product
quality, the best design, if not manufactured to the
requisite specifications and process, will result in a
product that lacks quality. In addition, it is not
enough for today’s manufacturing firms to produce
most of the products correctly. Even a small
number of defective products will result in a poor
quality perception. In addition, the issue of quality
has a halo effect for companies. The perception of
poor quality for one product can easily carry over
to all product lines. |

Installing Fieldbus
|
| Many automation engineers are coming face to face
with real fieldbus applications for the first time.
Fieldbus (the use of digital communications networks
for distributed instrumentation and control) is a
wonderful technology with many benefits, but fieldbus
installation requires some additional considerations
over and above normal 4-20mA projects. In this article,
we will discuss some of those issues, and show you
how to deal with them. |

Choosing the Right Industrial Wireless Network
|
| The decision to implement wireless technology in your industrial facility is a strategic choice, enabling an infrastructure
that will provide significant benefits for your company beyond avoiding the wiring costs. The right decision will help
improve safety, optimize the plant and ensure compliance. Wireless is a complex enabling technology that requires
deliberate consideration before broad deployment in an industrial facility. This document outlines questions to consider as
you make this decision. |

Many RS-485 Users Are Unaware That They Are Placing Data at Risk
|
|
“Many RS-485 users are completely unaware that they are taking unnecessary risk with their data because of the method they use for driver control” warns Jeff Hunter, Design Engineer at Sealevel Systems. To assist users in selecting the ideal method Sealevel Systems has published a white paper: Eliminate the Risk of RS-485 Data Corruption.

Color Contrast & Luminescence Sensors
|
| As the demand for products in the world-market continues to push production, the requirements for high-speed automated processes capable of providing these
products and components at lower cost and higher quality continues to increase.
Since subjective, visual inspection techniques are clearly not conducive to highspeed
inspection and control requirements, sensors have stepped in to fill this
need.
One of the key components in this high-speed production environment are the
sensors. These devices provide the evaluation of many features and
characteristics of products at rates exceeding hundreds/second. Photoelectric
sensors offer non-contact verification with far higher reliability and speed than
contact techniques. |

Using MODBUS for Process Control and Automation
|
| MODBUS is the most popular industrial protocol being
used today, for good reasons. It is simple, inexpensive,
universal and easy to use. Even though MODBUS has
been around since the past century—nearly 30 years—
almost all major industrial instrumentation and automation
equipment vendors continue to support it in new products.
Although new analyzers, flowmeters and PLCs may have
a wireless, Ethernet or fieldbus interface, MODBUS is
still the protocol that most vendors choose to implement in new and old devices. |
