      Long-Lasting and Exact: Pneumatic Clamps from Ganter

      Pneumatic clamps are standard elements in jig construction, and Ganter has carried these important fastening systems in its portfolio for some time. The product family has now been reworked – primarily to increase its lifespan and reliability. The most significant improvement concerns the pneumatic cylinder, which now operates with a magnetic piston and has T-slots on the housing. Thanks to this slot, it is now much easier to attach sensors, while the magnetic piston permits more precise querying of the current position by the new, modern sensor GN 3380, which entirely replaces the previous sensors. Of course, other sensors can also be precisely installed in the slot. The pneumatic clamps of the GN 860 series now have hardened, ground bearing bushings and tempered bearing pins for significantly reduced wear. No meaningful alterations were observed in testing for over 250,000 cycles. Structural reinforcement of the sheet steel housing reduces wear-inducing vibrations during operation, which makes a difference even under lower loads. And, finally, the new one-way restrictor in the cylinder enables smoother travel to extend the lifespan of the piston. For high retaining forces, such as are required in car body manufacturing or in pressing or welding lines, Ganter provides the pneumatically operated power clamps of the family GN 864. As part of its optimization strategy, Ganter has made two valuable improvements here. The housings of the standard versions are no longer blackened; they are chemically nickel-plated instead, which considerably increases the corrosion resistance. The FG type is designed specially for welding jigs: The PTFE coating in a characteristic green color prevents weld spatter from sticking – a useful addition to the optionally available protective covers, which ensure long-lasting operation even in aggressive environments.

    4. M1-EMP: New AC Drive with multiprotocol Ethernet support

      M1-EMP: New AC Drive with multiprotocol Ethernet support

      The M1-EMP inverter provides native connectivity to EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, and Modbus TCP networks without the need for optional hardware boards, reducing both cost and installation effort. Sharing the same form factor as the existing M1-ECT EtherCAT model, the M1-EMP supports 10/100 Mbps half and full duplex communication. It enables cyclic messaging that can be used in either pre-configured or freely mapped modes, as well as non-cyclic messaging for full parameter access. An external 24 V DC backup supply further improves reliability by keeping communication active even if the main power is interrupted. The M1 AC Drives series offers a comprehensive set of capabilities. It supports flexible motor control for induction motors, permanent magnet motors and direct drive applications, while integrated position control with a gear function makes it suitable for a variety of motion tasks. Energy-saving features help reduce operating costs, and built-in safety functions such as Safe Stop 0 (STO SIL3 PLe) support compliance with strict safety requirements. For users working with EtherCAT, the series also includes a model with FSoE STO functionality. Configuration and monitoring are simplified thanks to seamless integration with OMRON’s Sysmac Studio software and the OMRON Drive App, which allow setup, parameter adjustment and diagnostics to be carried out quickly and consistently. Available in power ranges from 0.2 to 30 kW across single and three-phase versions, the M1 family is already used in diverse industries including food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, material handling, environmental mobility, water treatment and energy. With the launch of the M1-EMP, OMRON extends this versatility by offering multiprotocol Ethernet communication as standard, ensuring easier integration into modern production environments.

With the M12 configurator, you can create customised cable assemblies for your application in just a few clicks. These are ready for despatch within 48 hours.

    6. Machine function handle with IO-LINK

      Machine function handle with IO-LINK

      Machine handles of the MG-x-Tx-TRIO IOLINK series are made of natural-colored anodized aluminum and handle legs are made of black powder-coated aluminum. The profile was specially designed for the installation of electronic assemblies to integrate additional functions. The polycarbonate diffuser, specially developed for LED applications, ensures a homogeneous signal surface for feedback and signal LEDs. The function handles also provide additional self-diagnosis functions. The self-diagnosis includes continuous monitoring of the signal surface LEDs, monitoring of the function of the buzzer, overtemperature and its logging. In the event of an error, an error event is output via IO-Link, which can be taken into account in the higher-level controller. An operating hours counter and error event counter complement the diagnostics, which can be accessed at any time via IO-Link. This enables new, predictive repair and maintenance concepts. In addition, you can parameterize the signal lights in a variety of colors and signal functions, as well as the frequency and tone intervals of the integrated piezo buzzer via the IO-Link interface at any time. The connection is made on the back of any IO-Link master via a 5m PVC / PVC cable with an open end or an M8 connector.
