INDUSTRY 4.0 + IIOT : PRODUCTS + SERVICES

Leading new product introductions in electronics

As an authorised distributor Mouser Electronics Inc. is focused on the rapid introduction of new products and technologies, giving customers an edge and helping speed time to market. Over 1 100 semiconductor and electronic component manufacturer brands count on Mouser to help them introduce their products into the global marketplace. Mouser’s customers can expect 100% certified, genuine products that are fully traceable from each manufacturer. Through April 2021, Mouser launched more than 483 new products ready for same-day shipment. These are just a few of them. - Analog Devices LTC2672 16-Bit digital to analogue converter offers five-channel, current-source out- put DAC, with selectable output ranges, precision Turck is expanding its series of cabinet guards with the addition of the IM18-CCM. The integrated sensors of the narrow 18 mm device monitor temperature, air humidity and door distance, in order to send this information via Ethernet to higher-level IT systems. External devices such as vibration sensors for monitoring machine or equipment states can also be integrated via Modbus RTU and CAN. The IM18-CCM is particularly suitable for OEMs wanting to provide basic condition monitoring values in their IT systems. It detects critical states of the control cabinet directly in the field. Creeping changes or systemic problems can also be detected through long-term evaluations. The IM18-CCM thus bridges the gap between the OT and IT worlds and enables users Pepperl+Fuchs combines the advantages of IO‑Link and OPC UA in a single device, offering its customers data communication from the lowest field level to the cloud to facilitate Industry 4.0 solutions. Although sensor data is currently typically stored in central control systems that may be difficult to access, this solution now makes the information available to decision-makers and AI systems wherever it is needed, worldwide. When used as a sensor interface, IO-Link provides in-depth data to identify, configure parameters for, and diagnose a sensor. The data can be forwarded to computer- or Combining IO-Link and OPC UA

reference, and a multiplexer for surveying the channel output voltages and currents. - TDK InvenSense SmartIndustrial™ sensor plat- forms are compact, high-precision, low-cost, ac- celerometers and motion-sensing MEMS modules that give engineers a range of sensing choices for industrial applications. - Intel RealSense™ ID F450/F455 is an out‑of‑the‑box, credit-card-sized solution that combines an active depth sensor with a special- ised neural network to deliver secure and accu- rate facial authentication. - TE Connectivity’s MATE-AX miniaturised automo- tive coaxial connectors feature higher packaging density to enable a 75% space reduction and 34% weight savings compared to standard FAKRA connectors. to analyse the data from the factory level directly from their office desks. The Linux platform of the IM18-CCM also allows installation of any customised condition monitoring software. In this way, measured values can be pre-processed and prepared on the device for the specific requirements of the application. The IM18-CCM is the third model in Turck’s cabinet guard series. The two 12 mm devices IM12-CCM and IMX12‑CCM come with on-board condition monitoring software to monitor limit states and long-term data series.

The systems analyse the data for specific applications, such as predictive maintenance solutions in which an optical sensor, for example, can proactively flag lens contamination and thus prompt cleaning in good time before malfunctions occur. The flow of data helps customers to increase productivity and secure long-term business success as digitalisation becomes ever more important. For more information contact Pepperl+Fuchs.
