Burnt, bent or dirty contacts
are often the cause of time consuming and costly production failures, especially
in applications requiring frequent plugging cycles, for example industrial
robots performing frequent tool changes where the level of wear and tear is
especially high.
Weidmuller’s FreeCon
Contactless product allows power to be transmitted via an air gap by means of
an inductive resonance coupling – it’s a solution that’s completely wear-free
and especially efficient. Double the power density and a far higher degree of
efficiency is achieved compared with other solutions that are available on the
market.
With FreeCon Contactless, you
can avoid contact related failures and reduce your maintenance costs
considerably. It even opens up completely new areas of application, since for
the first time ever an automated process can be used to establish a connection
which previously would have to be plugged manually. The process of charging
driverless transport systems, for instance, can be automated. High maintenance
slip ring transmitters can be replaced too, since FreeCon Contactless securely
transmits power even in the case of rotational movements.
