By integrating light guides and scattering elements, BOPLA offers optimal lighting results for night design and daylight. The portfolio of illuminated membrane keypads consists of various designs and technologies which guarantee homogeneous, efficient and energy-saving illumination. In bad light conditions, the illuminated membrane keypads make work much easier, and in this way they ensure a reduction in errors by minimising incorrect operations. Even in dark rooms, this guarantees 100% secure operability. In doing this, the number of keys and their positions, the shape of the keys and the graphic design can be adapted individually to the relevant requirements. Backlit Profiline for the highest standards Whether vehicle technology, payment systems or medical technology – thanks to its long operating life, low energy consumption and optimal ease of use, the backlit Profiline membrane keypad is at home in many sectors. The space-saving technology used here incorporates dual-function key inlays which also act as a light guide. A special RGB LED allows a key to light up in various colours – a very wide range of mixed colours in addition to red, green and blue. In this way, different displays are possible inside a single key. Even light distribution In addition, with its NLF backlight (Night-Light-Foil) and EL foils (electro-luminescence foils) BOPLA offers two more technologies for even light distribution.. With the use of LEDs, NLF technology makes it possible to realise almost all back-lighting requirements in robust, compact and effective ways, from the single key to a large area. A low mechanical height and mechanical flexibility are additional advantages. EL foils also emit homogeneous light over the entire surface. Normally EL membranes are less than 0.3 mm thick, so they are extremely space-saving.

The rope balancer software can be adapted flexibly and quickly to individual requirements. For customers who need support in integrating an existing or new load handling device into the handling process or linking the assembly line control system to the rope balancer control system. Such projects are implemented, for example, in the automotive industry or semiconductor technology. The challenge here is to quickly understand the customer's work processes and find a cost-effective, tailor-made solution. The handling device is an electronic rope balancer called Wizard. It is available as a rail or column device for various weight classes up to 600 kg and impresses with many technical details. And these are what make the difference. For example, an aluminium articulated arm that can be fully extended, i.e. used over its entire length, and makes work easier for the operator thanks to less torsion and lower operating forces. Another advantage is the rotary joints integrated into the operating handle and the column, which allow endless rotation of the load and the boom arm. An integrated measuring cell perfects the running behaviour of Wizard, as do high-quality bearings in the inner and outer arm segments. These are connected by a standard double centre joint. This allows every point within the arm radius to be approached. Programmable inputs/outputs (I/Os) on the control head and drive are standard on LIFTKON. The W600 R rail device is a further development of the basic devices. It is a new development that can lift loads of up to 600 kg. It was developed in response to customer requirements for moving heavy loads of up to 600 kg, for which no optimal solutions had yet been found. The W600 R can therefore lift significantly more than previous devices, but otherwise scores with the same technical features as its sister models.

We have now become accustomed to high-tech sensors such as rotary encoders having an industrial Ethernet connection and transmitting their complex actual values (position, speed, other status information) to a (now mostly PC-based) controller via a standardized bus protocol. The times when a separate line was used for each bit of the absolute position value seem to be forgotten. But sometimes this is exactly what is required. The first applications that come to mind are those in which new encoders have to be connected to existing control technology that only has a bit-parallel interface and no bus or even Industrial Ethernet connection. However, the rotary encoders with parallel interface from TR Electronic can do much more. In addition to the bits for the position, the encoder is also able to generate many different special signals such as direction of rotation, standstill monitors, virtual limit switches and thus replaces additional evaluation electronics for direct on-site evaluation. Like all encoders of the current Generation 2, various shaft shapes and diameters are also available in the standard modular system when using the parallel interface. Rotary encoders in size 58 mm can be equipped with solid shafts up to 12 mm in diameter, with blind hole and continuous hollow shafts up to 15 mm. The C_H802 and C_H1102 designs are available for larger shaft diameters. Their through hollow shafts can accommodate machine shafts up to 25 mm (for 802) or 50 mm (for 1102). Generation 2 of the TR absolute encoders also adapts to customer requirements in other parameters: Fully magnetic scanning with up to 13 bits within the revolutions is available, as is high-resolution optical scanning with 18 bits within the revolution. In addition, 4096 revolutions are genuinely scanned, without the need for a battery or electronic counter - the reliably determined position value is available immediately after switching on, even if the system has been de-energized.
