Belden creates an interface for customer-specific developments - the Connectivity Center
Schalksmühle, Germany - October 25, 2012 - Belden Inc., a global leader in signal transmission solutions for mission critical applications, has founded the Connectivity Center to speed up customer-specific developments in the EMEA region. Customer-specific developments are offered for connectors and cordsets as well as for active and passive I/O modules for fieldbus or Ethernet networks from its Lumberg Automation brand. The optimum solutions that emerge from such developments make for smooth production processes while cutting total cost of ownership, TCO.
Industrial insulation specialist highlights potential to save energy and reduce CO2 emissions through effective insulation of technical installations 
Schalksmühle, Germany - October 8, 2012 - Belden Inc., a global leader in signal transmission solutions for mission-critical applications, presents in the EMEA region three new I/O modules in the new LioN-R series from Lumberg Automation, which can be used to securely connect sensors and actuators to EtherNet/IP networks under rugged environmental conditions. These modules will also be introduced in the Americas and Asia later this quarter, are enclosed in zinc diecast housings that meet the requirements of industrial protection class IP67, allow galvanic isolation between sensors and actuators and the higher level bus system. This reliably protects controllers from interference. Vibration-proof M12 connection technology and short-circuit-proof outputs ensure a high level of functional reliability. The three modules each offer 16 digital channels configured as inputs, outputs or a combination of both. Since they are also equipped with a dual-port switch (10/100 Mbit/s), they can be used to implement both line and ring topologies. They also support DLR (Device Level Ring protocol), which means that if a connection is broken, the modules immediately switch over to an alternative ring segment, enabling the connected systems to continue operating without interruption. The easy diagnostics concept allows faults to be located swiftly.
East Aurora, NY, USA, October 4, 2012 - Moog Industrial Group, a division of Moog Inc. announced that the company has been awarded a contract to supply a substantial number of Portable Test Controllers with a single channel to Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL). The test equipment will be deployed for helicopter component testing in HAL’s Rotary Wing Research and Design Center in Bangalore, India. The tests that will be performed with the new test controllers include fatigue and endurance tests on rotor blades, flight controls and transmission systems.
