ABB Robotics – Assembly of electrical sockets

Posted by admin on May-28-2010

When it comes to using robots to increase productivity, reduce costs & improve working conditions for employees ABB is happy to practice what it preaches. So when ABB Elektro-Praga decided to install a new production line for its “child-proof” dual-plug electrical safety socket at its factory in the Czech town of Jablonec, it chose a system that featured three robots purchased from ABB Robotics.

“The small IRB 140 robot is ideal for this task. Although it’s small, it is exceptionally fast, accurate and powerful — it has one of the fastest cycle times of any articulated robot,” confirms Petr Prade, Chief of Design at MMT, the system integrator that built & installed the new production line.

Jana Dolková, who used to help assemble the sockets by hand before the advent of the robots, believes the new system is actually more “people friendly” than the one it replaced: “The sockets we are making contain fiddly components like screws and springs … before, I almost had to squint to see them. This is a much healthier environment for me.” “And of course,” Dolková adds, “unlike humans, the robots leave no fingerprints!”

At the moment, Elektro-Praga — which specializes in low-voltage circuit breakers, switches, control products, wiring accessories and cable systems — only employs the ABB robot system to turn out its “Tango” line of dual plug sockets. But in the near future, it plans to use it for several other variants. In fact, as it takes no more than 10 minutes to set up the line for another variant this will make it possible to change the variant up to 30 times per week – which results in real flexible ‘production to order’.

ImaginaryColours.com presents an instructional video on how to properly install the slide-on type of plugs on your custom light strings. This is an important video to watch. Many people put plugs on incorrectly. The funny thing is, if you connect the wires backward, the lights will still work. However, you will have inadvertently disabled the inherent safety mechanism provided by the Neutral conductor.

NOTE: If you are not experienced with electricity, we recommend you have a qualified electrician do all your electrical work. We at ImaginaryColours are not electricians, and we provide this information and believe it is accurate. However, you mess with your electrical stuff at your own risk!

EVGA Dual 1366 Socket Motherboard @ CES 2010

Posted by admin on Mar-18-2010

Check out the BOC Blog here:

http://beta-oc.blogspot.com/

EVGA showed of its almost-ready dual LGA-1366 high-end workstation motherboard at the ongoing CES event. The motherboard pictured sports a component cooling covering all its vital areas except for one of the CPUs’ VRM areas, it gives a fair idea about what the final product could look like. The board itself was detailed in earlier.

The chipset cooler design borrows heavily from single-slot graphics cards. A monolithic baseplate covers the northbridge Intel 5500(?), ICH10-class southbridge, and the two NVIDIA BR-03 bridge chips. The heatsink becomes taller over one of the CPU sockets’ VRM area. Air is drawn in from the round intake, and pushed out near the expansion slots. the gaps between the expansion slots will do their part in directing the hot air away.

The recently surfaced high-end dual socket LGA-1366 motherboard is pictured in full, without its cooling assembly. The picture reveals quite a bit about EVGA’s new monstrosity. To begin with, the motherboard is neither ATX, nor EATX in the truest sense. Like the recently announced X58 Classified 4-way SLI which was based on the “XL-ATX” form-factor, this motherboard seems to be 13.58 inches (344.93 mm) long, and about as wide as EATX (330 mm, 13 inches), or maybe a little more.

Each LGA-1366 socket is wired to six DDR3 DIMM slots for triple-channel memory, and is powered by an 8-phase digital-PWM circuit. Each socket further has a 3-phase power circuit for its DIMM slots. The CPU VRM for each socket takes input from an 8-pin ATX, and what appears to be a 6-pin +12V (PCI-E?) connector. The motherboard further takes power from a 6-pin PCI-E power connector apart from the usual 24-pin ATX power connector. Some of these inputs may be redundant and needed only for additional electrical stability to support competitive overclocking.

At the heart of the board is what appears to be an Intel 5500 “Tylersburg” or Intel X58, paired with an Intel ICH10-class southbridge. All of its SATA 3 Gb/s ports are located next to it, while a Marvell-made SATA 6 Gb/s controller provides two additional ports. There are seven PCI-Express 2.0 x16 slots in all, driven by four x16 links over two NVIDIA nForce 200 bridge chips. The exact lane distribution is not known. There seem to be two gigabit Ethernet controllers, 8-channel audio, eSATA, USB 3.0, and EV-Bot support. More about the board may surface during the CES event.
