NEW! Delta Motion RMC200 Motion Controller Communication Modules
ECAT – EtherCAT MainDevice with Redundancy Port
The ECAT module provides EtherCAT MainDevice functionality, allowing control of electric motor drives and communication with other EtherCAT subordinate devices such as sensors and actuators. With two RJ-45 ports,
the ECAT module supports cable redundancy.
The RMC200 supports position, velocity, pressure, force and torque control, and single and dual-loop axes via EtherCAT.
Axes may be defined with output and feedback in any combination of EtherCAT data or directly connected sensors
or actuators. The RMC200 EtherCAT supports CANopen over EtherCAT (CoE) CiA402 drive profiles and CiA408 valve profiles.
Ports 2 ports:
ECAT1: Main port
ECAT2: Redundancy port
Supported
Topologies Linear, ring and star
Hardware
Interface IEEE 802.3 for 100BASE-T (twisted pair)
Data Rate 100 Mbps
Duplex Full Duplex
Features Auto-negotiation, Auto-crossover (MDI/MDI-X)
Connectors RJ-45 (2)
Cable CAT5, CAT5e or CAT6, UTP or STP
Cycle Times250 µs minimum
Distributed Clock Subordinate devices that support
DC on the network are synchronized
with the motion loop of the
RMC200

West Coast Dry Kiln Association meeting at Rosboro in Springfield, OR! Ref USNR
USNR – Thank you to everyone who attended the weekend’s West Coast Dry Kiln Association meeting at Rosboro in Springfield, OR!
The event drew a sizeable crowd and included an exclusive tour of the mill’s recently converted dry kilns. USNR turned four of their existing double-track kilns into their patented UniFlow continuous kilns. Because of this, they have been able to increase production by 10-40% with more consistent steam use.
USNR have issued a big thank you to the West Coast Dry Kiln Association for hosting and to Rosboro Company LLC for the use of their facilities.
If you’re interested in learning more about USNR’s UniFlow continuous kiln, contact a USNR representative today!

Trumps Tariffs Trigger Turmoil
Holmen will reduce its output by 90,000 m3 at its sawmill in Braviken, Sweden reports Pulp and Paper news. As a consquence, the company will reduce its staff by 40 positions. That’s a third of the workforce.
Of course, it’s really sad and a great shame, this is not at all what we would like to do, says Johan Padel, business area manager at Holmen Trävaror, to Norrköpings Tidningar.
The sawmill is struggling with profitability problems. According to Padel, there are two reasons why the profitability calculation does not add up: the American tariffs and reduced access to timber from the surrounding area at a competitive cost.
To adapt to this new situation, the sawmill must reduce production volume, from 450,000 cubic meters to 360,000 cubic meters of sawn timber.
According to Johan Padel, the notice was expected.
Holmen’s paper mill in Braviken will not affected by the notice.
