Innovation for industry 4.0, safety and the environment
In hall 10 at K 2016, Gefran attends with a stand (F20) devoted to its technology and way of innovating, representing the added value of its extensive product catalog.
In Düsseldorf the Italian manufacturer of automation components, sensors, and inverters presents its latest products for tomorrow’s industry: devices that bring remote control and connectivity directly to the field, with eco-friendly, energy-efficient functions conforming to the most recent safety directives.
So visitors can observe inverters, automation platforms, regulators and power controllers that increase the efficiency of production processes, reduce energy consumption, exchange data with the factory computer system for optimized process control, reduce set-up times and downtimes, and anticipate preventive maintenance procedures.
The new regulators with intuitive touchscreen and Ethernet ports can record processes of hours, days, and months, and then transmit them to the web and even to the cloud to make them accessible all over the world. An additional step toward the Internet of things (IoT).
Attention to the environment also means using eco-friendly material. The enormous range of Gefran melt pressure sensors offers patented sensors - entirely fluid-free - filled with eco-friendly media or green (mix of sodium-potassium and FDA-approved diathermic oil), all fully compliant with the RoHS Directive.
Maximum attention is also given to machine safety, which, therefore, also means operator safety. Gefran sensors, certified PL‘c’ and SIL2, conform to the principal safety instructions in the Machinery Directive, rather than by specific product standards such as EN1114-1.
Furthermore, Gefran inverters are equipped with an integrated safety solution (STO - SIL3, class PLE) that allows disabling of the motor without the use of safety contactors in output to the drive, guaranteeing conformity to the Machinery Directive.
