High contact density despite compact dimensions
Belden has extended its Lumberg Automation™ product range with the world's first eight-pole M8 actuator/sensor connectors. These connectors, which fulfill all requirements for shock and vibration resistance, are being offered in two variants with molded cables as well as in three field-attachable installation variants. All variants are designed for a temperature range of between -25° and +80°C, and, when screwed together with the appropriate counterparts, meet the requirements of protection type IP67. Owing to the high contact density, up to eight signals can be transmitted with an external power supply, making the new eight-pole M8 actuator/sensor connector especially suitable for connecting optoelectronic sensors or safety switches of the kind used, for example, for monitoring safety doors on machines and systems.

DSM ENGINEERING PLASTICS AND K.D. FEDDERSEN SIGN DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT TO STRENGTHEN PRESENCE IN DANISH MARKETPLACE
DSM Engineering Plastics and K.D. Feddersen have entered into a distribution agreement, to join forces in the market development and sales of DSM Engineering Plastics resins in Denmark.
BERGEN OP ZOOM, The Netherlands – November 9, 2010 – At K 2010, SABIC Innovative Plastics today announced that its new ultra-tough, flame-retardant (FR) Lexan* F6000 polycarbonate (PC) sheet has been chosen by Plexx AS, a leading Norwegian plastics converter, to thermoform the first European passenger train window frames. The frames will be used in Norwegian State Railways train cabins. This advanced, tailor-made PC material replaces sheet molded composite (SMC) for significantly improved performance and faster cycle times, while avoiding the multiple secondary operations required for SMC. SABIC Innovative Plastics is helping customers succeed in the highly competitive transportation sector with advanced solutions that provide high performance, system cost savings, and superior end-product differentiation vs. thermoset materials. The company is exhibiting at K 2010 in Hall 6, Stand D42.
At K 2010, DSM Engineering Plastics has launched Arnitel® Eco, a bio-based, high performance engineering plastic.
BERGEN OP ZOOM, The Netherlands – November 3, 2010 – At K 2010, in Hall 6, Stand D42, SABIC Innovative Plastics is showcasing its global technological leadership with another outstanding achievement: one of the industry’s highest continuous use temperature rating for an unfilled thermoplastic material. New flame-retardant Extem* UP thermoplastic polyimide (TPI) resins are extreme high-heat materials that recently achieved a UL746B relative temperature index (RTI) rating of 240C. By incorporating polyetheretherketone (PEEK) into its proven ultra-performance Extem resin technology, SABIC Innovative Plastics is able to offer customers optimized performance combining the best of both materials. This unique blend technology opens new opportunities for lower-weight, high-temperature continuous use applications such as semiconductor chip trays, connectors for harsh environments, and metal replacement in high-heat oil and gas and aerospace environments. This new breakthrough technology demonstrates once again SABIC Innovative Plastics’ commitment to the proactive development of unique specialty resins that meets the highest performance demands of customers.
BERGEN OP ZOOM, The Netherlands – November 1, 2010 – Here at K 2010, in Hall 6, Stand D42, SABIC Innovative Plastics is reaffirming its commitment to the environment with two new announcements: the expansion of its already extensive Sustainability Solutions Portfolio comprised of more than 20 sustainability solution families and hundreds of product grades such as new Noryl*, Cycoloy* and Lexan* EXL resins containing post-consumer recycled (PCR) content; and the introduction of a rigorous new validation process for sustainable materials and applications. The new process includes a Sustainable Product Scorecard, developed in partnership with respected, third-party environmental sustainability consulting firm, GreenOrder. Both announcements illustrate SABIC Innovative Plastics’ commitment to addressing its customers’ diverse environmental needs. This includes the company’s ongoing investments in materials, technologies and processes that help customers worldwide lower their carbon and energy footprints, eliminate waste, and ensure strict compliance with global environmental regulations.
