Translucent connectors from Lumberg Automation (25.11.08) In addition to functionality and quality, design aspects and visual appearance also play an ever-more frequent role in mechanical and systems engineering when it comes to distinguishing products from those of the competition. Lumberg Automation integrates I/O Link interface into LioN-Link system (24.11.08) From the user point of view, the wiring of analogue sig-nals in machinery and systems has always been a problematic subject, due to the use of shielded connection lines: even though the workability of the various components such as cables and connectors has improved considerably in recent years, the assembling of a shielded cable still remains quite an elaborate procedure. Lumberg Automation presents a new I/O module for direct-current drives (24.11.08) Direct-current actuators are increasingly being utilized in many areas of automation technology for a wide variety of tasks. The advantages are obvious: small, compact, energy-efficient drives with a high degree of performance efficiency. These actuators are also often a good alternative to other solutions from the point of view of economics. However, integration into a uniform bus concept is often difficult. The components needed for this purpose are not available in their entirety. New ESD series for the prevention of electrostatic discharge (24.11.08) Electrostatic discharge during the production of elec-tronic devices can destroy electronic components and can cause considerable damage. The new M8 connector generation (30.10.08) The new M8 actuator/sensorconnectors with molded cablescore highly beside the newtranslucent design with furtherimprovements to details.An optimized insert and themetal screw thread have specialcontours to ensure optimal net-working and the best possibleanti-twist protection and thussignificantly increase the possi-ble withdrawal forces.
