Gear motor drive: Siemens has introduced
the Sinamics G110M, a motor-integrated
drive for Simogear gear motors, offering flexible control, integrated safety, simple installation, and a space-saving design. With a high
degree of protection, up to IP66, this new
gear motor drive provides the perfect solution
to most material handling-related challenges,
including conveyors, warehousing, logistics,
baggage and cargo handling, and post and
parcel shipping, plus numerous industrial
applications in the automotive, appliance,
and test stand industries.
Simogear gear motors offer high torque
density, low noise, and high efficiency.
With Sinamics G110M, it becomes easier
for designers and system builders to integrate
gear motors into a variety of control architectures. Plug connections
for onboard I/O ensure
fast installation, while
optional power connectors deliver even more
time savings. The system is delivered preconfigured, and the drive offers simple yet
comprehensive onboard diagnostic features.
Integrated features such as “Quick Stop” and
the limit switch function make this system
ideal for conveyor applications, Siemens says.
For uses requiring safety technology, the
Sinamics G110M offers integrated safety
functions such as “safe torque off,” which
can be activated via a fail-safe input or via
Profisafe, without needing additional safety
monitoring components.
Sinamics G110M features integral USS/
Modbus RTU, Profibus, and Profinet/EtherNet/
IP communication profiles. (Siemens, www.

Hitch mount: Ergodyne has introduced its
Umbrella Trailer Hitch Mount. The 6193 is a
portable accessory piece that fits with a stan-
dard two-inch hitch receiver onto the back of
a truck and holds the Shax 6100 Umbrella in
place, providing shade wherever, whenever.
Easy to attach and operate, the 6193,
when used with Ergodyne’s 6100 Umbrella,
protects workers at outdoor worksites like
highways, construction sites, and farms from
the sun’s UV rays.
The hitch mount is ideal for anyone seeking
convenient shade on the job, the manufactur-
er says. The thumbscrew holds the rust-resis-
tant steel umbrella pole in place. The umbrella
trailer hitch mount’s long length allows users
to bring down the tailgate and sit in the
shade. (Ergodyne, www.ergodyne.com)
Trailer management system: Phillips Industries has introduced the Permalogic
Smart-Charge trailer power management system. This “smart” charging system
for liftgate and auxiliary battery banks recognizes and automatically manages the
best power source(s) to charge your batteries from all available sources collectively
at the same time.
The Permalogic Smart-Charge system can pull from a number of different sources. The system has built-in low-voltage detection to avoid draining power sources
and an LED indicator to display which power input source is being utilized. (Phillips
