Inobalt is looking forward to the new servo motors from KOLLMORGEN

“Smaller with more power. This is a very good combination with which we are now able to equip machines for increased productivity and more flexibly", Inobalt – manager Rolandas , Obsta has been appointed as the face of a new development of drive technology partner Kollmorgen. The possibilities offered by the second-generation servo motor AKM2G for Inobalt especially in the field of machine performance, have been reported to Mr. Obsta by the manufacturer.

In September, Kollmorgen hosted a partner event at its Ratingen European headquarters entitled "Together we can do more". The two-day event offered plenty of room for discussions with other contract partners and provided in-depth technical knowledge about today's automation solutions as well as the innovations of tomorrow. Partners from Europe and India did not miss the opportunity to gather know-how straight from the source. "We maintain a really close and cooperative relationship with Kollmorgen. In turn, this is a big plus for our customers", says Rolandas Obsta.

The second generation of AKM2G synchronous servo motors delivers up to 30% more torque, due to Kollmorgen’s expertise in developing and manufacturing compact, efficient motors that are powerful and highly configurable. Kollmorgen has succeeded in significantly reducing the winding losses, which directly improves the already efficient torque/revs ratio of existing AKM servo motors to date. "The second-generation AKM2G motors offer our partners more power with the same construction footprint," says Jan Treede, host and CEO of Kollmorgen Europe.

Kollmorgen's EU meeting gave first-hand information about the new generation of AKM2G motors. Inobalt – Manager Rolandas Obsta and Jan Treede CEO of Kollmorgen Europe, look forward to upcoming joint projects.

Energy-saving made easy – Measuring energy efficiency in accordance with DIN EN ISO 50001

Saving energy is not just a priority for energy-intensive industries. Virtually any organisation is being forced to look at its energy efficiency. Furthermore, the DIN EN ISO 50001 standard (or the German SpaEfV legislation) makes the implementation of an energy management system inevitable in the long run.
We therefore apply our many years of experience in industrial measurement technology to advise and support you on measuring energy efficiency in accordance with EN ISO 50001 using our hardware and software products.
Our mobile energy measurement cases or stationary switch cabinet systems – both using Delphin hardware and software – identify and analyse potential energy savings and provide users directly with meaningful information.
The tried and tested data logger from Delphin's Message series is at the core of data acquisition systems already being used for energy management. The data logger can be connected with a 3-phase power measuring unit to acquire any required energy unit such as electrical power, active power, idle power, power consumption and so on. Measurement data processing and analysis then takes place independently within the data logger itself. The data is recorded to an internal memory and given a unique and manipulation-safe time and date stamp.
Our ProfiSignal software enables users to generate individual visualization interfaces to give a clear overview of a system and to enable easy operation as well as system auditing.
This enables compliance to DIN EN ISO 50001 and, for example, to the German legislation on energy efficiency (SpaEfV) and enables implementation of an energy management system in accordance with DIN EN ISO 50001.

Expert Logger – the latest generation of stand alone data loggers

With its Expert Logger, Delphin Technology AG introduces a new generation of data loggers that combine the latest communication technology with advanced measurement technology. The device is being launched in three versions, capable of processing 16, 32 or 46 analog input channels. Upto 8 digital inputs/outputs and one SDI12 interface are also available depending on the version.
The main areas of application include product testing, environmental measurement technology, laboratory data acquisition, research and development, and trials and testing. All analog inputs are galvanically isolated from each other. A 24-bit A/D converter ensures fast,precision sampling rates of up to 50 measurements per second per channel. The devices are maintenance and noise free due to the absence of electromechanical components (such as relays) that are prone to wear and tear.
All Expert Loggers are equipped with internal 4 GB memories that can independently store up to100 million measurement values with date and time stamps. Storage capacity can be extended as required via external USB or LAN storage (NAS). Online measurement data or the contents of the data memory can be transmitted to the internet via an integrated WLAN or UMTS module.
The Expert Logger is also equipped with an energy-saving “sleep function“ for automated switching off during breaks in measuring. Independent operation is possible using batteries, rechargeables or solar panels. The Expert Logger can communicate as standard via CanBus, ModBus and ProfiBus. Internal software channels such as calculation channels, limit values and integrators enable online evaluation of measurements and the logging of meaningful data.
Users can quickly and effectively operate the Expert Logger using the powerful ProfiSignal Go software that is included free in delivery. ProfiSignal Go can be used to portray measurement data in trends and to carry out detailed analyses. The software also enables fast ASCII exporting of measurement data for MS Excel™ or for conversion into TDM format.

LogMessage5000 – New Data logger with galvanic isolation

The new LogMessage 5000 data logger enables data acquisition from 16 differential analog inputs with galvanic isolation of up to 650 VDC. High-level isolation is particularly important when acquiring measurements from voltage-carrying components, such as in the product testing of household appliances or electric motors.

 Each of the LogMessage 5000's analog inputs can be separately configured. For temperature measurement, any type of thermocouple can be used. The LogMessage 5000 is equipped with linearization curves for all thermocouple types and has pre-installed reference points. Any thermocouple can then be connected and used immediately.

Pt100 and Pt1000 sensors can be fed directly from the LogMessage device via a 4-wire connection. Analog inputs can be used to also measure mA or mV signals. Scaling is performed immediately according to the required measurement unit.

Data can be transferred online to a PC via the LogMessage 5000 LAN interface. The LAN interface is also galvanically isolated as are the power supply and all other interfaces - by up to 1000 VDC.

The LogMessage 5000 is equipped with an independent data storage capacity of up to 250 million measurement records. This gives improved data security and reliability over PC-based systems.

Each measurement record is recorded with a time and date stamp. Up to 10 measurements per second per channel can be recorded. The data is then evaluated using the ProfiSignal Go software included with the LogMessage 5000.

 How to Effectively Manage Industrial Energy Costs

Rising electricity prices, CO₂ emission taxes, and customer expectations regarding sustainability are forcing companies to pay more attention to their energy consumption. However, only a small percentage of businesses are actually monitoring and analysing this consumption in detail.

 While implementing energy efficiency solutions, we often notice the same issue: energy data is either not collected or is insufficient for effective analysis. As a result, it's hard to assess where energy is consumed, how it fluctuates, and whether installed equipment performs as expected.

Our experience shows that energy consumption varies significantly not only between companies, but also between departments or even identical machines. A compressed air system or ventilation unit might consume twice as much energy in one location compared to another.

The first step to solving this issue is measurement. We can only manage what we measure.

That’s why we help industrial companies to:

• Identify major energy-consuming systems,

• Install smart measurement tools,

• Track consumption trends,

• Plan and implement improvements based on data.

An energy efficiency strategy begins with numbers. The ISO 50001 standard clearly states: measurement and data analysis are key to achieving sustainable improvements. Our team of specialists helps you establish this foundation.
