Machinery & Manufacturing
An extensive range of motion control products including linear electric actuators, linear electric motors, servo drives, brushless motors and gearheads will be exhibited by Servo Components & Systems. The components can be assembled into simple pick-and-place, XYZ gantry, push/pull or stacking systems for entry- level robotics and automation. The motion, drive, control and software products are to be found in general industrial production facilities and specifically in packaging, food processing, life sciences, automotive and the military. Established in 1992 and based in Poole, the company is ISO9001-registered and stocks a comprehensive range of products including servo drive amplifiers, brush and brushless motors, stepper motors, gearheads, linear electric motors, linear leadscrew actuators, and incremental and absolute encoders. Supply of special cable assemblies is another specialism. A number of internationally renowned companies are represented, including Copley Controls, Electrocraft, NiLab, Sinadrives, Trio Motion, Dunkermotoren Linear Systems, Printed Motor Works and Wittenstein.

Intelligent Solutions
In addition to classic signal devices, Werma (UK) offers intelligent solutions that make Industry
4.0 immediately implementable.
Independent of other systems and easy to retrofit, they can be used immediately out of the box. Call and signal systems allow
problems at manual workstations to be reported quickly and easily and they control access to doors and gates. Other solutions with monitoring software quickly and clearly detect weak points in production, while to uncover hidden potential in manufacturing, the systems are able to measure unproductive times, whether at manual or automated work stations or even in dispatch. A central control station collects statuses from all workstations and machines. Among the process monitoring equipment to be showcased by Werma will be the latest WeAssist system. The new cloud-based solution notifies process activities to multiple users via a browser interface. Complementing this, the company offers the user-configurable WirelessAndon for simple, flexible call-and- response to help optimise processes. Optional battery operation makes the system suitable for mobile platforms, extending applications to, for example, fork lift trucks. There will also be on the stand the new eSIGN programmable signal towers, which provide visual information in an intuitive format, allowing easy visual management of manufacturing operations.
