Axiomatic Technologies has two new devices for the machine/controller interfaces of access equipment. One is the AX030100, which measures and connects up to 10 analog inputs (0 to 5V, 0 to 20 mA or 4 to 20 mA) to a variety of analog machine sensors or levers. It communicates the data using CAN (SAE J1939) or CANopen protocols.
The Ontario, Canada company has also extended its valve controller product line at the top end with the AX021200 (pictured). It controls up 9 valves by converting CanBus inputs to proportional or on/off outputs from 12 to 72 V, 0 to 2 A with ±1% precision.
