Industry 4.0

Everyone has heard about Industry 4.0 and is talking about it but Paul Jepson asks if we really know what’s behind the catchy label and what does it mean for manufacturing. He talks Nicole and Caroline through the reality of smart automation using real-life examples to de-mystify the topic and to reassure them that it’s not complex but it is helpful! Hosted on Acast.

The post-covid landscape

As pandemic restrictions are cautiously eased, Oriental Motor’s Paul Jepson looks at the areas of automation that have been most affected and those which have seen a rise in demand as production and consumer habits change. On an optimistic note, as industries begin to stabilise, some areas of increased automation will grow the market, improving efficiency and safety and creating new jobs. Hosted on Acast.

Electric Motors

Electric motors are everywhere but not are created equal. How do you decide which is the right one for a conveyor belt, sliding doors, windscreen wipers and the food processor in your kitchen? Paul Jepson guides Nicole and Caroline through the sizing and selection process – but they still manage to bring it back to a lunchtime example to illustrate just how many motors are in use today!

Stepper Motors and Peristaltic Pumps

Paul Jepson of Oriental Motor UK returns as a special guest to talk automation. The myriad of motors available is clarified as he talks Nicole and Caroline through the landscape of automation today. Together they delve into details on why AC induction motors or BLDC motors just won’t meet present and future intelligent automation needs. There is an exploration of the popularity of motorised linear stages and X/Y table and a drill down into stepper motors and peristaltic pumps (roller pumps) for industrial fluid control. With pharmaceuticals one everyone’s mind at the moment, Paul also focuses on how these motors are effective in drug research where the precision of a five-phase stepper motor can control fluids worth £10,000 per gram, at rates of 10nl per minute. Nicole and Caroline also quiz Paul on how sophisticated motors and software account are used to set parameters. The trio touch on how they are used to configure systems for an Industry 4.0 communications network and the intelligent Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Hosted on Acast.

Automation and Robotics

In this podcast, Nicole and Caroline talk to Paul Jepson of Oriental Motor UK about how the current pandemic has affected the supply chain and the steps taken to make sure customers are still able to design and create systems. He explains how the company, which operates in different geographical regions, has managed to adapt and introduce practical measures to manage customer timelines and – most importantly – keep lead times to an absolute minimum. They also discuss the role of technology, from video calls to maintain customer contact, to how Covid-19 has accelerated the drive to automation and robotics. The company matches this evolution, introducing communications protocols to its AZ Series of closed loop stepper motors. Find out what this means for developers and users and what design support is available for increased automation through this health pandemic and beyond. Hosted on Acast.
