GE and Ingersoll Rand Launch Intelligent Building Automation Platform For Data Centers

E Intelligent Platforms and Ingersoll-Rand Plc (NYSE: IR) today announced the signing of a cooperative agreement to develop an automation platform to meet the energy and operational efficiency needs of data centers. The two companies will work together to develop intelligent offerings that include the world-class industrial solutions of GE and the industry-leading HVAC expertise of Trane, a business of Ingersoll Rand, a world leader in creating and sustaining safe, comfortable and efficient environments.

“With data centers currently consuming 1.5 percent of the United States’ total electrical output, and expected to grow by 12% per year, productivity and efficiency in data centers is taking a front and center role,” said Maryrose Sylvester, President and CEO of GE Intelligent Platforms. “The goal of this agreement is to help customers around the world reduce operating costs, increase energy efficiency, and extend the life of assets.”

GE and Ingersoll Rand will work together to develop joint solutions for data center customers that tackle asset optimization, platform integration, reporting and analytics across systems, and remote monitoring and services enablers. The agreement between the two companies means that Ingersoll Rand has access to GE Intelligent Platforms’ Proficy Software Platform for visualization, Advanced Analysis & Modeling and Remote Monitoring & Diagnostics, Proficy Process Systems for integrated software and high availability hardware applications for industrial and redundant control application requirements.

Robots from fanuc for Flexible convertible fixturing

The F-200iB is a six degrees of freedom servo-driven parallel link robot designed for use in a variety of manufacturing and automotive assembly processes. The F-200iB is engineered for applications requiring extreme rigidity and exceptional repeatability in a compact, powerful package.

F-200iB, the Solution for:

■ Sub-compact robot welding
■ Pedestal welding
■ Part loading/positioning
■ Nut running
■ Vehicle lift and locate
■ Flexible/convertible fixturing
■ Material Removal
■ Dispense


Benefits

■ Provides flexibility and convertability – the ability to reprogram the F-200iB
facilitates rapid and costeffective model changeovers.

■ Reduces capital expense – F-200iB process solutions take less time and money to process and design. They also reduce tooling and build costs.

■ Lowers operating expense – using the F-200iB reduces tooling complexity, resulting
in less maintenance and down time.

■ Optimizes use of floorspace – the sub-compact F-200iB can fit in spaces too cramped for serial link robots.

■ Makes it feasible to perform more welds per station, thus reducing the number of
stations per system.

■ New process possibilities – the F-200iB opens the door to new process solutions not
available with current tools.

Features

Mechanical:

■ Six degrees of freedom
■ Simple, robust, lowmaintenance
design
■ Electric AC servo motors
■ Precision gear drives
■ Fail-safe brake on each leg
■ Components protected from
weld flash, grease, chemicals
and water

Hard pocket milling

Techniques for milling an accurate slide pocket in A2 tool steel hardened to 60 HRc (Rockwell). Relieved cutters with a corner radius are key to success, as well as high accuracy end mills made to a close tolerance. Avoid trapping the tool in corners, and mill a radius bigger than the cutting tool. Relieving the corners can further help. Recorded on a Makino F5 vertical machining center with OSG c…
