    Vote for Best in Show at The ASSEMBLY Show South

    More than 150 exhibitors will display the latest manufacturing products and services at the inaugural ASSEMBLY Show South April 4-6 at the Music City Center in Nashville, TN. Fasteners, power tools, adhesives, dispensing equipment, conveyors, robots, software and, of course, automated assembly systems are among the myriad new products on display.To get more news about Progressive Cavity Pump Spare Parts, you can visit brysonpump.com official website.

    To draw attention to the breadth and quality of new technologies on display, we’re holding a “Best in Show” contest at the event, and you—the attendees—will be the judges. We’ve nominated 10 products that we think are particularly innovative. All you have to do is vote for your favorite on the show floor.
    Modular Platform for Automation
    Flexbase is a configurable, modular platform for automation. It enables manufacturers to standardize production equipment, simplify engineering and maintenance, and adapt quickly to rapidly changing production requirements. It also provides a lower risk path to transition manual processes to semiautomatic or fully automatic production.

    Available in 4- or 6-foot standard models, Flexbase can be configured as a standalone automated workstation or linked together to create a complete assembly line. Optional conveyors can be configured for over-under pallet recirculation.

    The cell is ISO 6 compliant and can be FDA-validated with a documentation package. It has a maximum height of 7.5 feet to fit through a standard 8-foot doorway and includes built-in levelers. It is also ergonomically designed to accommodate a standing or sitting operator. The platform can be used for a variety of processes, including assembly, sorting, testing, handling, fastening and joining.

    Fully integrated Allen-Bradley controls are adaptable to various automated operations. The IIoT-ready control system includes IO-link enabled hardware and OEE Optimizer machine analytics software. Booth 329
    The Electric EA30 is the first roller-forming machine with servo-controlled articulation. With three individually programmable servos, the Electric EA30 can execute a variety of profile shapes in a single stroke. The forming capabilities include traditional roller forming, articulating roller forming, 3D articulating roller forming, and crimping.

    Servo-controlled radial motion delivers higher precision and control compared to conventional equipment, which requires manual adjustment of a mechanical stop. All three servo motors are aligned within the unit, giving the machine a slim design. As a result, the machine is well-suited for integration into automated production lines with limited space. It can also be used as part of a stand-alone work cell for prototyping or low-volume production where frequent changeover of nests and programs may be necessary.

    HPPi software allows programming and quick adjustment of the forming process using the HMI. The software monitors all aspects of the forming process and stores the process data. The data can be exported through an industrial data interface (OPC/UA), enabling integration into higher-level production management systems.

    The primary advantages of the technology are flexibility in forming; programmability and control of the vertical, radial and rotary motions; and real-time feedback of the forming process parameters. Additionally, this technology can reduce cycle time compared to conventional machines, which may require multiple forming steps to produce the same part. Booth 511
