The SMELA liteECO® series is the most compact electromechanical alternative to pneumatic short-stroke cylinders thanks to its patented arrangement of motor and mechanics. This makes them ideal for the many linear movements required in production lines, machine tools or packaging systems. A servo motor including positioning sensors enables the movement of simple to complex profiles: for fixing, adjusting, locking and travelling any type of movement. The highly efficient motor saves up to 90 % energy compared to pneumatic systems. Together with the smart arrangement of the mechanics in the motor, the actuator saves up to 80 % installation space compared to existing electrical solutions. The liteECO® series also offers the option of simple refurbishment. The replacement of a worn mechanics is extremely simple and helps the actuators to achieve life cycles: sustainable, cost- and resource-saving. In addition to the servomotor and linear mechanism, the LE-INTEGRATED actuators have an integrated drive controller based on 24 volts and optionally on 48 volts. They are controlled via EtherCAT, CANopen or digital IOs. As with the BASE series, many of the advantages of electric drives are supplemented with essential features for high industrial requirements and packed into the smallest possible installation space. In addition to sealing to protection class IP65, conventional M8 and M12 circular connectors have been integrated in the A, B, L and Y coding’s. The maximum stroke is 85 or 115 millimeters, whereby any positioning within the maximum stroke is possible without restriction.

The new generation of products is a logical development of the successful EKS system and has many advantages in terms of digital access control and the selection of a safe operating mode. Benefits for you: - Simple implementation thanks to project templates with predefined functions and data fields - Simple assignment of access rights via input screens - Simple authorization blocking via an expiration date - Simple implementation of security standards for data handling and the assignment of rights - Simple integration in any PROFINET environment and systems from any manufacturer

With the FLC+, we are expanding the FLC series for components that require slightly more installation space due to their geometry. Here, we place the process modules directly on the floor and simply omit the tabletop on work surfaces; everything else remains the same. The modular design of the FLC+ allows us to always implement the optimal assembly process. We are flexible in our choice of process modules and connect them as efficiently as possible using robots.

Waterfall Security enables secure and reliable operations through software-enabled hardware platforms. Their solutions protect against both today’s cybersecurity challenges and those yet to come.

i-series motec The new decentralized frequency inverter generation Next level: i650 expands the solution space​ i650 motec offers additional new functions compared to the i550 motec. With the Logic PLC, the decentralized frequency drive solves stand-alone applications of single or multiple drives. ​This integrated intelligence makes solutions independent of a higher-level control system possible. This saves hardware and integration costs, and the overall machine design remains clearer. ​ The integrated positioning function of the i650 is ideal for turntables, corner transfer conveyors and lifting stations. ​Safety is also enhanced with STO via CIP Safety in addition to STO.

This solution serves as an interactive dashboard for manual operational data acquisition in quality control. Through a touchscreen display, workers can interact with the dashboard and make entries on the items inspected. If an item is without defects, the worker can log this by pressing the “OK” button. If an item is faulty, the error can be specified in more detail using the corresponding buttons. Based on this data, the dashboard provides your employees with an overview of their own and neighboring production lines. Thanks to the real-time visualization, they also see immediately if a certain error has become disproportionately frequent. This allows them to react quickly and optimize the corresponding production process immediately. All the data collected through the touchscreen is stored and persisted in a list in Peakboard Hub. This allows you to use the data not only for a real-time overview, but also for historical analysis. The long-term analysis can be performed either via this dashboard or using a BI tool such as Power BI, Tableau or Click. Download the template now for free and customize it to your individual needs or your company’s corporate design. For even easier usability, all scripts in this template were created using Peakboard Building Blocks, our low-code script editor.

YOUR PARTNER FOR INNOVATIVE AND MODERN PRODUCTION LOGISTICS IWI® is an AMR (Autonomous Mobile Robot) that moves autonomously without external guidance aids. Using artificial intelligence, the software calculates the robot's optimal path in its environment. In contrast to a classic AGV (Automatic Guided Vehicle), the AMR does not require any orientation aids such as floor markings or rails. AUTONOMOUS The AMR moves autonomously to an unlimited number of stations, which can be selected simply by clicking on the map. FLEXIBLE We are your partner for complete solutions (mechanical adaptation, programming, communication) for a perfect integration into your production environment. INTUITIVE With the intuitive user profile on the tablet the customer can easily reprogram the AMR to adapt it to changes in the production process. IWI FITS YOU In order to function successfully and autonomously in your production logistics, you must coordinate your needs and your production systems. Our experts work with you and define the right “top module” for your production environment (e.g. belt conveyor, cobot...). The team is there for you throughout the entire project and remains your only contact. ADVANTAGES IWI® takes on tasks with low added value and enables you to have completely autonomous production logistics. Thanks to the direct communication of IWI® with your machines, your ERP and the environment (e.g. sectional doors), the production process runs smoothly and optimizes your lean management. UNLIMITED SOLUTIONS With our expertise in the design and production of automated and robotized special machines, our engineers can offer you THE solution for your specific needs. To ensure that the robot integrates perfectly your production environment, we mechanically adapt IWI® and program it individually.
