At the 2015 SPS IPC Drives, Eplan, Phoenix Contact and Rittal are presenting “Thermal Design Integra-tion” – new possibilities for the standardised design of energy-efficent control cabinets with climate control systems. This integrated virtual engineering means companies can avoid design errors with the climate control systems and prevent unnecessary downtimes and service calls, thereby reducing costs while increasing process quality.
Morgan Advanced Materials has made a further addition to its extensive product portfolio with the launch of a new range of high-temperature kiln furniture. Ideal for use at temperatures up to 1,700oC (3,092oF) under corrosive conditions, the launch of this new range in MgO-Spinel has been developed in response to the changing needs of the market.
The Composites and Defence Systems business of Morgan Advanced Materials has been awarded the Canadian CM735 Combat Helmet contract. The improved helmet features an innovative ultra-lightweight hybrid composite structure, the result of more than three years of materials research and development and achieves outstanding ballistic performance at an extraordinarily low weight. Morgan’s extensive capabilities have supplied over one million combat helmets as part of the company’s LASA (Lightweight Armored Soldier Architecture) line of products.
Bargteheide – NORD DRIVESYSTEMS expands its latest series of slim two-stage helical bevel gearboxes, adding a new smaller unit for output torques up to 50 Nm. Highly efficient helical bevel type units therefore now complement the line-up of worm gearboxes that is already available for small loads. Thanks to superior manufacturing quality standards, the gear units are highly resilient and withstand large forces on the output shaft. The short-term overload tolerance is 275%, which leaves enough time for the motor protection to kick in. Mechanical blockages usually do not cause damage, but the drive can start right up again without service interruption. The new units are available for gear ratios from 3.58 to 61.88. They add a new size to the existing series that now comprises six sizes with output torques up to 660 Nm. NORD supplies the two-stage helical bevel gearboxes with hollow and solid shafts, single or double shafts, for foot or flange mounting, and in open or enclosed designs. All versions feature a very high power density, ensuring robust reliability and easy handling. By default, the gearboxes support reverse operation. NORD custom-configures motors, drive electronics, accessories, gaskets, and lubricants for all industries. One of the options, for instance, is the heavy-duty corrosion-protection treatment nsd tupH for the enclosure.
