advantages forNSMMagnettechnik in the
competitiveautomotive industry.
Increasedsafety through
industrystandards
Another key factor that contributed to
increasedprocess reliabilityand cost-
effectivenesswas the changeover from
CPEvalves to individual valvesVUVG.
With theCPEvalves, theverysmall screws
for clamping the cables frequently caused
defectsdue toexcessive tightening. The
8Mplugsof the individual valvesVUVG
offermuchgreater reliability. For
electricians, handlinghasalsobeenmade
easier thanks to the8M industrystandard
andstandardised cable lengths.
With900plugs in thestackingsystem, this
apparentlysmall improvementmakesa
hugedifference. Inaddition, the individual
valveVUVGswitchesat apressureof
below1bar,while theCPEswitchedat
1.5bar pilot pressure. Significantlyhigher
parallel switching is thusachieved in the
newstackingsystem fromNSMMagnet
technik.Withaswitching timeof 100 to
150milliseconds, thevalvesVUVG
canachieveahigh cycle rateof up to90
pushingprocessesperminute. Theoutput
is40per cent higher than that of
conventional systems.
Completesolution improves
servicequality
Thanks to the ready-to-install solution
suppliedbyFesto–consistingof cylinder
DSBC, individual valveVUVG, fittingsand
tubing–NSMMagnettechnikhasalso
reduced itsassemblycosts. Inaddition,
thecustomisedcompletesolutionmeans
that thecompanycan respondextremely
quickly tocustomer requests. Thenew
high-performancecomponents fromFesto
havenotonly increased theprocess
reliabilityof thesystem, but also
permanently improvedservicequality.
“The changeover to thenew
DSBC cylindersmeans thatwe
canoffer our customersmuch
better process reliability.”
