The level of automation in material handling and logistics is constantly increasing. Robots and intelligent machines are assisting employees in the warehouse on a daily basis. The material flow in the assembly line as well as the shipping preparation are also managed more and more by these intelligent machines. The influence of Industry 4.0 is clearly noticeable in all areas. But this rising level of automation requires highly efficient, durable and reliable power supplies. That is why many of the world’s leading material handling and logistics companies have partnered with PULS in order to maximise the operation and reliability of their systems.
Highest efficiency and smallest size
Warehouses and distribution centres frequently operate 24/7 and down time can result in delayed order fulfilment, customer dissatisfaction, and lost revenue. At the same time, manufacturing companies are faced with a rise in cost pressure.
PULS provides industrial IP20 DIN rail power supplies for operation in on-site cabinets as well as IP54 or IP65/67 field power supplies for on-machine installation directly in the field. All PULS power supplies combine the highest efficiency ratings and smallest form factor available today. The high efficiency leads to lower power losses in the form of heat – which in turn leads to a longer service life and a higher reliability. This allows material handling & logistics automation system builders to minimise their costs and maximise the operation of their systems.
PULS DC power supplies – ideal for dynamic load requirements
Dynamic load requirements are often found in material handling systems and can expose power supplies to great amount of stress. PULS DC power supplies can withstand high peak currents, making them an ideal solution for this kind of application. Depending on the type, the PULS power supplies have power reserves of up to 50%. The new FIEPOS Field Power Supplies even feature power reserves of up to 100% for 5s.
