Adept To Exhibit Robotics At Solarcon China 2010

Adept Technology has announced it will be presenting its robotics and software solutions at the Solarcon China 2010 show in Shanghai from 16-18 March 2010. The event is expected to draw 40,000 qualified industry professionals, where the US Department of Commerce is coordinating and promoting a seminar showcasing automation technologies and solutions from Adept and industry partners located in China, Taiwan and Korea.

The seminar, entitled 'Automation for Crystalline Silicon Solar Manufacturing', will be held within the Solarcon China 2010 show on 17 March from 2pm to 5pm in hall W4, meeting room W4-M6. The following organisations will present on the latest automation technologies and benefits for crystalline silicon solar manufacturing: Adept Technology, USA; Castec International, Taiwan; Second2none Machine Vision Systems, China; YS-Thermtech, Korea; Beijing Golden Spring Technology Development, China.

The seminar will focus on how technologies such as parallel linked robots, the latest in-vision processing and line management can be combined to obtain yields unavailable through manual or conventional methods of cell handling.

It is expected that more than 40 major wafer and cell manufacturers from China, Taiwan and other Asia countries will be represented at this event. Solarcon China 2010 will take place at the Shanghai New International Expo Center. The event showcases the complete PV industry supply chain, from materials and equipment, to solar cells, modules, systems and installation for both commercial and consumer applications.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
