 | Mike Likes: Actuator solutions simplified
The addition of Ethernet connectivity to Tolomatic's ACS Stepper Drive/Controller brings greater flexibility and economy to electric actuator applications. The ACS with Ethernet supports both Ethernet/IP and Modbus TCP, allowing easy connectivity to Allen Bradley PLCs and many other PLCs and HMIs. With built-in configurations for all of Tolomatic's electric actuators, the ACS with Ethernet makes creating linear motion very simple. The combination of the ACS and Tolomatic's ERD low-cost rod-style electric actuators creates very economical solutions for automation applications such as product changeovers, diverting, sorting, pick and place, or pressing. And that's just neat.

| | Videos+: Technologies and inspiration in action | Navy develops low-cost target-seeking tech
A weapon prototype developed by the Office of Naval Research (ONR) successfully hit two high-speed boat targets during recent testing in Point Mugu, CA. "It's a fire-and-forget weapon," says Ken Heeke, the ONR program officer for the Low-Cost Imaging Terminal Seeker (LCITS). ONR researchers produced LCITS, a suite of low-cost technologies that modify existing helicopter-borne rockets into precision-guided weapons. By adding an infrared imaging guidance section to 2.75-in. Hydra-70 rockets, the researchers are providing naval aviators with a new lethal capability.
