Detection of flat spots on rail vehicles

Undetected flat spots, welds or crumbling on the wheel tire can lead to serious consequential damage and have an impact on ride safety. The GEL 2475FD flat spot detector has integrated detection of periodic impact loads. This allows flat spots on the wheel tires to be reliably detected. Noise emissions can be efficiently reduced through targeted maintenance measures.

Cost-efficient drive for a broad range of automation applications

Projects involving automated format adjustment are now profitable considerably faster than they were in the past thanks to SeGMo-Positioning GEL 6009. Even in applications where full automation was previously avoided due to the costs involved, productivity can be boosted and operator workload reduced. IO-Link ensures that the positioning drive can be integrated into the control system seamlessly.

Digital MiniCODER among the "Product of the Year" winners

Our digital  MiniCODER achieved the third place in the drive technology category of the "Product of the Year" competition. The voting was initiated by the German trade magazine Computer&Automation. 96 products in twelve categories were up for election.

Position displays: Simplify manual adjustment processes

Lenord+Bauer’s SeGMo-Assist digital position display simplifies manual adjustment processes. It can be combined with the GEL SEROT external rotary sensor, which is suitable for mounting in hard-to-reach locations thanks to its hollow shaft and compact design.

Compact positioning system for standalone use

Automatic positioning systems save time during format adjustment, increase process reliability and boost the efficiency of production lines. The compact SeGMo positioning drive GEL 6109 with batteryless multiturn absolute rotary encoder, gear and motor as well as integrated power and control electronics significantly reduces the effort required for changeover.

Speed sensor for mobile machines

Mobile machines must be powerful and available at all times. They are usually employed in challenging environmental conditions. This means that the components must work reliably in the harsh working environment. Lenord+Bauer has relied on its expertise from the railroad transportation industry to develop a robust speed sensor for this application.

High-resolution encoder kits with digital interfaces

Lenord+Bauer is expanding its portfolio of digital MiniCODERs to include a high-resolution model. MiniCODERs with MHSSI interface (Mitsubishi High Speed Serial Interface) now offer resolutions of up to 67,108,864 positions per revolution (26 bit).

Digital position display: Minimum additional construction work

Semi-automation of packaging machines is now easy to achieve thanks to a coordinated solution: For their linear axes, RK Rose+Krieger now offers adapter kits suitable for mounting Lenord+Bauer’s SeGMo-Assist digital position display.

Batteryless position display: good for the environment and your budget

The SeGMo-Assist digital position display from Lenord+Bauer, which is used for guided, semi-automated format adjustment above all in packaging processes, is the only batteryless system available on the market incorporating a full graphic display. Low life-cycle costs make this system an impressive solution.

Complete system for machine tools

Modern machine components have to be quick to assemble and function reliably. Lenord+Bauer, the specialist for detecting rotational speeds and positions in high-speed spindles, offers a “plug and play” solution with MiniCODERs and matching ferromagnetic precision target wheels.

Multisystem sensors for signaling upgrades

Lenord+Bauer has developed speed sensors featuring several self-sufficient sensor groups which supply supplementary monitoring devices with independent speed signals without requiring more installation space.

Safely avoid motor, gear unit and clutch damage

Lenord+Bauer has developed a space-saving M12 threaded sensor to meet the specific demands of the heavy goods vehicle market. Thanks to an optional standstill signal, it is also suitable for safety applications.

Retrofitting ensures continuous operation

To ensure that modern train control systems receive reliable square-wave signals, vehicle operators have to regularly replace passive sensors with active ones. Lenord+Bauer screw-in threaded sensors are used to upgrade rail vehicles to the state of the art, thus ensuring that they can continue to operate reliably.

Dynamic traction control

When it comes to controlling traction in electric motors, often only slightly resolved speed signals are available. This makes it more difficult to start on inclines, for instance. Thanks to integrated pulse multiplication, a high-resolution speed sensor from Lenord+Bauer enables much more dynamic control behaviour. Rolling detection, too, benefits from the greater number of pulses.

Increased route utilisation thanks to Cold Movement Detection

Lenord + Bauer has developed a Cold Movement Detector. This is suitable for all rail vehicles which are to be equipped with an on-board "European Train Control System (ETCS)" including Cold Movement Detection (CMD) according to Baseline 3. Use of the new sensor eliminates the need to travel slowly so that the Radio Block Center (RBC) can determine the position reliably. The valid vehicle position is reported…
