SMC Exhibits at Pack Expo Las Vegas 2023

SMC Corporation of America will exhibit at Pack Expo Las Vegas 2023 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, Central Hall Booth C-4839 on September 11-13.

SMC is excited to announced that it will again be a sponsor for the Packaging & Processing Women’s Leadership Network (PPWLN) Breakfast at PACK EXPO Las Vegas hosted by The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies (PMMI) on September 12 from 7:30-9:00 in North Building, Upper Level, Room N247.

SMC will feature its industry-leading, innovative Air Management System (AMS) technology which monitors and measures pressure, air flow and temperature to provide the optimal supply of air pressure and volume for efficient process control to reduce demand on air compressors during machine operation and the functionality to throttle down to idle mode for nonoperating cycles.

Other SMC products on display for supporting automation, controls and processing for the Food & Beverage, Grains/Cereals, Medical Device, Pharmaceutical and Packaging industries are:

• E-Actuator with Integrated Controller (EQ) – This easy to set up linear electric actuator with internal battery-less absolute encoder is capable of two stops (home to end) or three stops (home to mid-stroke to end) without programming.

• Hygienic Compact Solenoid Valve Manifolds (JSY) – Compact and lightweight design targets robotic end effectors and end-of-arm tooling applications.

• EX600 Wireless Fieldbus Communication for EtherNet/IP^TM Protocol – Safe, secure wireless communication within a 10-meter radius and frequency hopping every 5 ms.

• IO-Link Products for Connecting Actuators and Sensors – Connects higher-level controllers like an HMI (Human Machine Interface) or PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) to IO-Link capable sensors and actuators bi-directionally over a short distance (20 meters or less), wired (or wireless), per networking standard IEC 61131-9.

• Low Profile Static Electricity Elimination Ionizers – Neutralize static electricity using the auto balance or feedback sensors to optimally control ion generation and distribution.

• Vacuum Multi-Stage Ejectors and Cups, ZK2, ZP3P, ZPT and ZNC Series – Provides energy conservation with 90% reduced air consumption, increased efficiency, and simplified piping in a contact manifold package complimented with FDA compliant bellows vacuum cups.

• Wash Down and Hygienic Actuators – Designed with a flat configuration, eliminating switch grooves and holes for cushion needles to prevent pooling of liquids and allow for easy wipe down of actuator surfaces.

Exhibit Dates & Hours:

• Sept 11–12 (M - T)     9:00 – 5:00 PT
• Sept 13           (W)      9:00 – 3:00 PT
