Parker Hannifin's KEY TO SUCCESS at SINDEX 2014

Etoy, July 18, 2014 - Parker Hannifin, the world's leading manufacturer of motion and control technologies, will be exhibiting again at the Swiss technology trade show SINDEX - opening its doors from September 2 to 4, 2014 in Berne.

At this year's SINDEX, Parker's theme will be: "KEY TO SUCCESS".  On its modern booth, Parker will present the company's latest innovations in electromechanical, pneumatics and hydraulics. Amongst these will be:

Parker Series ETT -  a cost-efficient substitute for pneumatic cylinders

Parker complements its range of linear motor actuators with the new ETT
(Electric Tubular Motor) product line. This series is now available in three lengths and sizes offering maximum  force ratings of 512N, a speed range up to  4m/s plus an acceleration range to 200 m/s2. With position repeatability of ± 0,05 mm, the new ETT is ideally suited to all kinds of linear handling and pick & place applications. It also provides an excellent solution where precise force and speed control combined with high flexibility and position control are required. Furthermore, the ETT meets the DIN ISO 15552:2005-12 requirements for pneumatic flange standards and allows easy interchange with pneumatic counterparts without additional cooling.

Parker drive AC30 - Expanded product range

Engineered specifically for flexibility, simplicity and reliability, Parker Hannifin's AC30 series of variable speed AC drives has been extended to cover the range from 0.75 kW to 75 kW and is also available with a pulse encoder feedback option, bringing closed-loop capabilities to the drive. Now offered in five different frame sizes, the AC30 drive provides users with exceptional levels of control, from simple open-loop pumps and fans through to closed-loop process line applications; in fact, wherever reliable and accurate motor speed control are the key requirements.

Featuring integrated energy monitoring functionality, the AC30 series facilitates the matching of motor speed to varying application demands, thus supporting the reduction of energy consumption. This not only saves money, but extends the mechanical life of motors, pumps, fans and ancillary equipment such as ducting or pipework.

Parker micro-drive AC10 - Uncomprimised performance and economical design

Parker's new variable frequency AC10 micro drive offers straightforward yet adept motor control in everyday applications requiring speed or torque control within the power range of 0.2 to 15 kW. One of the smallest micro drives available, typical applications for AC10 are set to include conveyors, centrifuges, fans, mixers, packaging machines and textile machines. Offering extremely compact dimensions and features normally only associated with higher specification drives, AC10 provides an optimised solution for OEM machine builders seeking a cost-effective drive without any compromise in performance.

The new micro drive gives users the inherent energy-saving benefits of using a variable frequency drive, as well as the improved reliability and extended service life benefits associated with smoother starting and stopping of regularly cycling loads.
Situated at the main entrance will be Parker's Expo-Bus - a mobile showroom regularly used for roadshows in Switzerland. In addition, there will also be a  HOSE DOCTOR bus which is used in Parker's retail business. HOSE DOCTOR buses are mobile service stations for hydraulics assisting customers on location at their construction sites. Since this year, three HOSE DOCTOR buses have been on tour throughout Switzerland.

At SINDEX 2014, visitors will gain an insight into a small range of Parker's complete product portfolio. Furthermore, they could even win some prizes at The Wheel of Fortune, located at the Parker booth in hall 3.0.
