Safety circuit
PositionServo drives with suffixes “ES” and “RS” now include a safety circuit that disables the drive output to the motor so that the drive cannot generate torque in the motor.

PositionServo drives with suffixes “ES” and “RS” now include a safety circuit that disables the drive output to the motor so that the drive cannot generate torque in the motor. This safety function, termed “Safe Standstill,” meets the requirements of ISO 13849-1 Safety of machinery %%MDASSML%% Safety-related parts of control systems %%MDASSML%% Part 1: General principles for design. Even in the event of a single fault (single component failure), the ISO 13849-1 safety circuit will still function and disable the drive.

2012 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering’s annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.
