      Standardized automation with vCell

      The V-Cell is a compact automation module. The robot unit can be used for various purposes. For example, welding, handling and machine placement are among the most common applications. The V-Cell 100 is offered in the compact design as a standard module. This is characterized by space-saving design and easy transport possibilities with forklift or pallet truck. Due to the high flexibility of our equipment and staff, we can adapt the standard module to almost any customer requirement. So do not hesitate to contact us.

    2. Standstill monitor UG 6946

      Standstill monitor UG 6946

      Safe sensorless standstill monitoring The safe sensorless standstill monitor UG 6946 from the SAFEMASTER S series detects the standstill of 3-phase and 1-phase motors independent of the direction of rotation. This means sensors such as encoders or proximity switches are not required. Access to the danger zone of a system is only possible by the enabling signal of the standstill monitor after the drive has been switched off and run down. In order to detect a standstill, the remanence voltage induced by the motor windings is evaluated and provides safe standstill monitoring up to Cat. 4 / PL e or SIL 3, even if the motor has already been switched off. Using a conventional release via a time control, dangerous movement could not necessarily be excluded. For the implementation of different operating modes, the standstill monitor UG 6946 also offers the possibility of bridging the standstill monitoring (muting). The simple integration into the machine and drive concept reduces the commissioning effort and costs and is particularly suitable for use in machine tools and woodworking machines, centrifuges and rolling drives. With a width of only 22.5 mm, the UG 6946 can be accommodated in the control panel even under tight space conditions allowing easy retrofitting. The device also offers two redundant safety contact paths and a forcibly guided signal contact.

    3. Static Code Analysis: Identifying Errors Early On

      Static Code Analysis: Identifying Errors Early On

      With the growing complexity of automation software, code quality assurance is becoming increasingly important. SIGMATEK's LASAL CLASS engineering tool now offers an optional “Static Code Analysis” (SCA) extension for checking control code created in Structured Text. SCA checks the code base for possible runtime errors and undefined behavior, such as uninitialized variables, returning a pointer to a local variable, implicit conversions, etc. – without having to execute the code. A large number of different, simultaneously running test rules analyze a wide variety of aspects of the control code and identify any quality defects, non-compliance with guidelines, or violations of internal coding standards at an early stage. Trivial errors that are often difficult to find can be prevented by using SCA, reducing the workload on the team and increasing productivity and software quality, not only during development but also during maintenance. Users have very flexible configuration options: each of the more than 50 predefined rules for variables, types, functions, and methods can be parameterized individually. The tool can also calculate metrics. Metrics are measures that evaluate various aspects of the code base. Fully configurable naming conventions are also possible. The rules, metrics, or naming conventions can be enabled or disabled – both individually and in groups. Automated basic checks allow reviewers to focus on the correctness of the logic and architecture. The analysis in a separate output window clearly displays error messages, which can be double-clicked to jump to the corresponding location in the code. Configurable, color-coded priority levels for individual errors in the output provide clarity. Error output can be suppressed line by line using code comments.

This comprehensive data collection (MDA/PDA/QDA) forms the basis for STIWA CONTROL and OPTIMIZE. Standardized interfaces (e.g., OPC UA, ProfiNet) and the proven MaCo interface ensure smooth and reliable data communication. CONNECT enables seamless Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication for global connectivity and efficient data exchange. Whether brownfield or greenfield, Flexible connectors seamlessly integrate older systems and state-of-the-art IoT technologies, enabling gradual digitalization without high investments.

    5. STIWA - CONTROL Your Production Lines

      STIWA - CONTROL Your Production Lines

      Manufacturer-independent standardization, maximum process reliability With the STIWA control station software, machines can be visualised and controlled independently of the manufacturer and control system. Data-driven decision-making and full data transparency directly at the production machine ensure smooth, efficient operations. The modular, flexible control centre, the cockpit for machines, covers everything from order management to process and type control. A consistent, user-friendly interface reduces training and maintenance effort. SCADA functions, on-the-fly-set-up (type changeover without emptying the machine), a virtual data pill for lossless tracking of parts and component data, and comprehensive recipe management with integrated type and release management all contribute to maximum process reliability and efficiency on the shopfloor.

    8. STO SIL3/PLe TÜV-geprüft für die integrierten Motoren ServoStep Größe NEMA 17-43

      STO SIL3/PLe TÜV-geprüft für die integrierten Motoren ServoStep Größe NEMA 17-43

      STO SIL3/PLe TÜV-geprüft für die integrierten Motoren ServoStep Größe NEMA 17-43 JVL bietet ab sofort TÜV-geprüfte STO-Funktionalität (Safe Torque Off) für die gesamte Palette der integrierten ServoStep Schrittmotoren der Größe NEMA 17 bis NEMA 43 an. Die STO-Funktion wird verwendet, um die Energiezufuhr zum Motor sicher zu unterbrechen. Der Motor wird dabei ohne zusätzliche Hardware in einen Zustand versetzt, in dem er kein Drehmoment mehr erzeugen kann. Die STO-Funktion ist die gängigste und einfachste antriebsintegrierte Sicherheitsfunktion. Weiterhin wir durch den STO ein unbeabsichtigtes Starten des Motors verhindert.
