μS. The first from WAGO's upcoming ETHERNET 2.0 line, 750-881
provides significant amounts of memory for PLC programs and Web applications,
as well as an integrated dual-port Ethernet Switch. To keep pace, independent
Ethernet ports respond in 1ms, transmitting real-time information to production and enterprise
management.
The
750-881 PFC interfaces with standard network protocols, including unique
support for both EtherNet I/P and MODBUS TCP. The Ethernet switch streamlines
costs and system footprint by facilitating a line topology for fieldbus wiring,
eliminating additional switches and hubs. An onboard DIP switch configures the
last octet of IP address/assignment, expediting commissioning.
Keys to the 750-881's high-frequency processing are a 32-bit CPU and 1Mbyte
of program memory. A 2Mbyte Fast File System supervises
both a Web-Based Management System and substantial data logging. E-mail
capability (updates/alarms) is also provided for authorized personnel. 750-881's
standard CoDeSys V2 programming environment is IEC 61131 compatible and features all
five programming languages. The PFC supports up to 250 I/O modules
and allows users to tailor solutions from the 400+ analog, digital and
specialty modules in the WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM.
The
750-881's new housing design departs from WAGO's traditional architecture. The slotted
housing optimizes heat dissipation while maintaining a 0 to 55C operating
temperature range and IP20 rating. Certifications include UL
508, cUL, GL and CE.
By refining topologies and using new fluid technology, Moog's new peak sine drive controller increases available power without increasing controller volume.
Lantronix Inc. has expanded its line of controllers for sensor networks with the release of a rugged controller that improves management of automation systems used in a number of industries, including manufacturing, oil and gas, and chemicals.
Inspired by the hooks a parasitic worm uses to penetrate its host's intestines, the Karp Lab has invented a flexible adhesive patch covered with microneedles that adheres well to wet, soft tissues, but doesn't cause damage when removed.

A quick look into the merger of two powerhouse 3D printing OEMs and the new leader in rapid prototyping solutions, Stratasys. The industrial revolution is now led by 3D printing and engineers are given the opportunity to fully maximize their design capabilities, reduce their time-to-market and functionally test prototypes cheaper, faster and easier. Bruce Bradshaw, Director of Marketing in North America, will explore the large product offering and variety of materials that will help CAD designers articulate their product design with actual, physical prototypes. This broadcast will dive deep into technical information including application specific stories from real world customers and their experiences with 3D printing. 3D Printing is
