MIXO TWO: angled housings for compact installation

11/06/2024

The flexibility and versatility that characterize our MIXO modular system extend to the enclosures to rely on robust protective solutions in industrial applications. Born as a complement of the MIXO ONE Series for one single-sized modules, the MIXO TWO enclosures are designed to host two 1-slot sized modules and widen the possible configurations of independent compact connectors.

Five new angled metal housings are now available for installation on vertical panels:

  • CXA 02 IA: angled bulkhead mounting metal housing, with open bottom flange and no cable entry;
  • MXA 02 AP25 and MXA 02 AP32: angled surface mounting metal housings, with closed bottom flange and M25 /M32 cable entry;
  • MXA 02 IAP25 and MXA 02 IAP32: angled bulkhead mounting metal housings, with open bottom flange and M25 /M32 cable entry.

IL-BRID locking system: hybrid design now also with single-lever

12/12/2023

Coming together with the industrial evolution, the concept of hybrid design has become the challenge but also the opportunity of the automation sector to meet the market needs by following new directions. Products ease of use and adaptability to increasingly specific contexts are perceived as essential for customers and manufactures.

ILME response to flexibility and strength encounter stands in the IL-BRID Series of enclosures, whose range, distinguished by CL-ML nomenclature, now includes single-lever versions for the standard sizes “57.27”, “77.27” and “104.27”.

SOFT TOUCH, STRONG GRIP      

The patented IL-BRID locking system is characterized by handles made of self-extinguishing thermoplastic material (UL approved) with a stainless-steel core: different technical features combined in one ergonomic design for easy opening and closing allowing:

  • durable but significantly low-wear performance
  • optimal multipole connections safety

Elastic but rigid but still with a compact footprint and an effective locking resistance to sustain even large cables, the new IL-BRID enclosures are compatible with the full range of ILME enclosures with pegs on short sides.

FEATURES AT A GLANCE

  • V-shaped ribs to improve stiffness of handles
  • mechanical life: ≥500 cycles and ambient temperature: -40 to +125°C
  • IP65 or IP66/IP69 degree of protection according to EN IEC 60529
  • full range already including double lever versions
  • with and without hinged cover (LS in suffix of part No.)
  • contour of stainless-steel cores and of lever hooks adapted to larger Ø pegs
  • possibility to replace the lever without tools
  • available with Metric cable entry as standard; Pg and NPT cable entries upon request
 

New MIXO modules – fresh air for pneumatics

21/11/2023

The transmission of clean and dry compressed air applied to automation requires specific characteristics and conditions including mechanical resistance and compactness of the components, both basic peculiarities of pneumatics modules that allow maximizing the efficiency and durability of the connection systems.

To further increase the possibilities of modularity, widening the solutions offer, ILME has developed two double-sized MIXO modules CX 02 MPBF/M with relevant larger metal contacts for tube sizes 8.0 and 10 mm (each module can host different tube diameters) added to the already available single modules with 2 or 3 seats for tube sizes from 1,6 to 6 mm.

10 A stamped performance

26/10/2023

When speaking about products and industries, the quest for quality satisfaction is always ongoing and strictly linked to the balance between performance, reliability and price. This is even more common in such environments distinguished by high volumes of activity and automated processes oriented on making the market reachable as quickly as possible.

In terms of optimizing wiring and connections, stamped contacts match cost-efficiency with a quick and easy processing so as to facilitate the increase of production speed.

At ILME, we are now introducing the new 10 A silver-plated SD stamped contacts in crimp termination, available both as loose parts box for maintenance/small work and 5000 reel-pieces package for large quantity site installation requirements, in addition to the already existing SI series for 5 A.
