Huco Couplings for Forklift Steering ColumnsHuco (Altra Industrial Motion) was contacted by a European manufacturer to solve coupling challenges in the steering columns of forklifts.Automation and Digitalization Comes to Life at SPSAcross three days, the relaunched Smart Production Solutions (SPS) 2022 event in Nuremberg, Germany, attracted a total of almost 44,000 visitors in November. This year’s program included presentations on topics with high relevance for the automation industry, such as sustainability in automation, safety and security, new logistic methods, and robotic integration.Thermal Growth Issues and Solutions for Shaft CouplingsI have been researching “Thermal Growth” issues for decades across North America. Many refineries and chemical plants are built with large pieces of rotating equipment in an outdoor setting exposed to the elements. This means the equipment (driver and driven) are often seeing forces beyond anyone’s control called “Thermal Growth.” | ||
QUICK REACTING AND READILY AVAILABLE TORQUE LIMITERSProper torque overload protection is often omitted from machine design over concerns about size, inertia, and performance – not to mention long lead times. The SLE addresses all of this with a compact low inertia design that runs backlash free and disengages within milliseconds of an overload. It’s also readily available.Automation Systems that will Boost Your ROIApplied Cobotics has taken another innovative step forward with the introduction of the Cobot Feeder. This brings another piece of the automation tool to our collaborative robot system, offering more production power, flexibility, and ease-of-use. This is especially important to small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that are looking to incrementally increase their automation. | ||
