Built , tested and delivered from Gibson Engineering stock

VUVG Valves

   

The Festo VUVG is setting a new benchmark for solenoid valves. It makes applications easier and less expensive. While it has a small footprint, the high flow rate of the VUVG valves makes it a best in class manifold. And of course it is easy to order, install and commission.

 

Gibson Engineering has implemented a quick delivery program for the VUVG to provide our customers with fully assembled and tested valves and manifolds from our Norwood headquarters.  

 

The VUVG is a great option for everyone who wants to keep things small or boost performance without increasing size. And now that Gibson Engineering stocks VUVG valves and accessories we can deliver your configuration quickly.  

It has up to 100% more flow and greater energy density thanks to a pressure capability of up to 10 bar.  The patented cartridge seal concept with its unique seal profile and materials makes  the VUVG the highest performing, most versatile valve in its class and with longer service life.

 

We invite you to request a quote to see how easy and quick getting your next valve manifold can be.

Mitsubishi robot class added to our training curriculum
   
During this 3-Day hands-on class attendees work with functioning 6-axis and SCARA robots learning how to program various automation tasks as well as how to communicate with various devices including PLCs, PCs and Vision Systems.

   

The agenda includes:  RV-6SD

  • Robot safety
  • Robot overview and system operation
  • RT Toolbox2 off-line programming software
  • MELF-Basic V programming language
  • EOAT, tooling, gripper & hand
  • Programming and program management
  • Connecting to the robot
  • Automatic operation and debugging
  • Basic application programming

We conduct hands-on labs involving palletizing routines, vision inspection, changing end-of-arm tooling, coordinate systems and robot maintenance.

Sick Logo sickSensor innovation from SICK
   
MultiLine sensor with maximum detection reliability 

   

Two logical and intelligently linked sensors with background suppression in one miniature housing offer the highest ruggedness for object detection.

The special characteristic of the MultiLine sensor is the two parallel light lines, i.e. the compact W4 housing accommodates not one but two photoelectric sensors operating simultaneously. And "two eyes" detect better, particularly when objects, such as printed circuit boards have gaps or openings or if - in the case of blister packs or soup packets - they are exceedingly flat.

 

  • Maximum sensing range 120 mm
  • Response time 1 ms
  • Simple adjustment via teach-in button

Maximum safety for people and machines

MS6 Softstart

   

Reliably ensures fastest possible exhaust in the event of an emergency stop in safety critical systems. The combination of the soft-start  function and safety exhausting makes for improved safety and greater machine availability.

  • Safety valve with Performance Level c
  • Low-cost and capable of high flow rates
  • Reliable and fast venting of systems
  • Pressure build-up and exhaust in one valve - saves space
  • Complete exhaust without residual pressure for greater safety
