SLIO is a modular and extremely compact control and I/O system. It can be combined and used with any of our established systems and many systems from other manufacturers. The completely redesigned SLIO system sets another benchmark in the automation industry, by combining high performance and the latest functions with a clever mechanical concept in an extremely compact design. It also offers innovations in control and visualization, for example new, extended modules for the established SLIO IO series.

Precise gripping of the smallest components – with a weight of only 25 g in the smallest size.

Smart cameras and vision sensors solve a wide range of industrial image processing tasks and combine image recording, image evaluation and interfaces in one housing. The highly modular hardware platforms in combination with high-performance uniVision machine vision software enable tailored adjustment for all machine vision applications. Variants with auto-focus or C mount are available. As a complete image processing system in sensor format, smart cameras and vision sensors allow for easy setup of an image processing application. With intuitive operation and maximum functionality, a wide range of industrial image processing tasks can be carried out without the complexity of assembling and setting up a PC-based vision system.

Ganter is expanding its range of indexing plungers with a technical treat. The newest addition, type GN 817.7, is pneumatically actuated and can be seamlessly integrated into automated processes thanks to state-of-the-art sensors. There aren’t actually any indexing plunger variants lacking from Ganter’s portfolio. Nevertheless, the development team consistently succeeds in integrating new functionality that opens up new application possibilities. The most recent indexing plunger development is pneumatically actuated. Plus, the part also detects both end positions with just a single sensor. This makes GN 817.7 a logical advancement over the manually operated indexing plunger GN 817.6. The new variant can also be used in hard-to-reach locations and can be integrated into automated processes. What’s more, GN 817.7 can be used as a replacement for GN 817.6 without any changes in dimensioning or signal processing. The position detection of GN 817.7 is once again based on proven magnet technology but with some important new innovations. Not only are both end positions now detected but they can also be individually defined. The sensor teaching can be performed directly on-site with a small operating element on the sensor, which is held in place by a clip and supported by a cable. There are even LEDs for visual feedback. The other option for teaching is to use the convenient IO-Link feature via the system control unit. This standardized interface makes teaching a quick affair and also allows for immediate replacement in the case of faults, which significantly reduces downtime. The high signals upon reaching the respective end positions are transmitted directly over the 4-pin M8 cable plug to the control unit of the system.

Software products for sensors make it easy to set up and parameterize single or multiple sensors from a central controller. They also make it possible to carry out instrument-independent calculations, maintain sensors remotely, and provide remote access to equipment in the event of support.

The Windows™ certified version 2.70 impresses with its high level of user-friendliness. For professionals, it is THE versatile label and sign software for Windows™ 10. It is suitable for thermal transfer printers, laser and inkjet printers, plotters, engraving machines and marking lasers with Windows™ based drivers. When created, printer, engraving and laser parameters are saved for the label or sign. This makes it possible to achieve a consistent result after the first adjustment of these values, when printing or engraving again. Numerous assistants make use easier, e.g. for layouts, sizes and uses, alignment and graphic import. HEROS label software offers label design, print management for your labeling systems and special modules for automation and industrial output in specific configuration. Various assistants make work easier, e.g. with regard to layout, sizes, benefits, arrows, holes and the creation of test stickers.

When it comes to cam action indexing plungers, Ganter offers something very special: the new cam action indexing plungers from the GN 721 series with stop for left- or right-handed operation available with optional locking function. Admittedly, Ganter already offers a very wide range of cam action indexing plungers. Yet frequent inquiries from customers for special designs prompted the company to add another standard part to its extensive standard product range. More specifically, the cam action indexing plungers from the GN 721 series differ in that they limit the range of action to 180 degrees and offer the option of left- or right-hand lock. This allows multi-lock applications to be created with the same direction of movement, and therefore easier handling of valves or other components. In principle, the curve transforms the 180 degree rotation of the lock into an axial lift. If the spring-loaded lock does not unintentionally snap back from this end position, other optional designs with reliable lock notch are available. Also optional: the lock nut pursuant to ISO 8675, which counters the cam action indexing plunger that can be mounted via the external thread in a specific assembly position, and thus guarantees a defined, construction-related locking position. In addition to the normal steel design, the cam action indexing plunger is also available in stainless steel. In both material versions, the lock is available with and without polyamide valve. Other customer-specific special solutions are also possible—for example, cam action indexing plungers with different curve slopes, smaller swivel ranges, special geometries, with a center position or specific locking ranges.
