Federal Signal's Breakthrough LED Technology Reduces
Cost by 50-60%
Models 191XL, 225XL, 27XL and 2000 Series LED feature eXtreme Light Technology (XLT™), a
high-intensity LED array that optimizes light output with superior lens
fill. In addition to outperforming conventional LEDs with increased
illumination and greater versatility, these lights also offer the
vibration and shock resistance, reduced power consumption and extended
service life that is inherent to LED technology. The costs of servicing
an incandescent signal light, including replacement parts and service
man hours can be two to three times the cost of installing a new Federal
Signal LED with XLT™. Available in both DC and AC voltages,
variety of lens colors and multiple mounting configurations. www.federalsignal-indust.com

***Electronic Tool Crib Keeps Track of
Equipment***
OAKS, PA: The Penco Smart Tool Crib(TM) system permits authorized
employees to log into the system using their existing ID cards and to
select specific tools or equipment from compartments identified on a
flat panel monitor. After successful login, the doors open
automatically permitting removal of the items. Closure of the door
identifies the compartment as empty, and records the identity of the
person who accessed it. User access, duration of possession, and time
of return are all logged, which in turn support a number of reporting
options. Administrators can open all doors in seconds, or lock down the
system altogether. The system shown incorporates a mix of 48" tall 2-
and 4-tier compartments accessed using a standard keyboard and card
swipe interface. Optional configurations incorporate a fully integrated
touch panel monitor and control cabinet. ---Penco Products, Inc.

***Solution for Area Detection &
Measurement
SUNNYVALE, CA: The IDEC-DS AS1 or DS1 Area Sensors accurately
detect or measure slim or small objects. With the respective ability to
detect objects as small as a 0.2mm thickness, and to detect and measure
objects of different shapes and sizes, these sensors are perfect for a
wide range of applications. AS1 photoelectric light grids utilize a
precise crossed-beam detection method that enables detection of even the
slimmest objects, with 0.2 mm thickness, inside a 100 mm height, over
operating distances reaching 2.1m between emitter and receiver. Thanks
to a short response time, the ultra-compact AS1 light grids are just the
area sensor for fast conveyor lines or for applications requiring
detection and counting of objects in random positions, such as sheet
(paper, wood, metal) or envelope detection. DS1 is available with 150mm
height, 5mm resolution and an operating distance of 2.1m. A response
time of less than 3ms, allows installation on the fastest machines and
processes. ---IDEC Corp.

***More Global Trade/Supply Chain
Predictions***
Though a number of environmental regulations have been implemented
globally over the past year, a majority of manufacturers are lagging in
terms of demonstrating and maintaining compliance with new trade laws,
such as the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) regulations in
effect in China, Japan and the European Union. Non-compliance with
these directives can result in stalled supply chains, lost revenue,
fines and damage to corporate reputation. While many companies claim to
have met certification requirements, others may not be up to par and
will need to make further adjustments to their manufacturing processes.
Make sure that an internal team or outside trade specialist is actively
managing compliance with these regulations as laws may evolve. Validate
that your supply chain partners are shipping RoHS-compliant products and
that you maintain an audit trail to track and capture data pertaining to
compliance measures you have taken.
Sourcing Shifts from Asia to the Americas. Coinciding with the 2008
Summer Olympics in Beijing, media attention will focus on China as the
world's next potential "bubble" and cause many manufacturers to shift
sourcing strategies from Asia to the Americas. The falling U.S. dollar,
limited free trade agreements, high energy costs, and rising production
costs in Asia will all contribute to companies reevaluating extended
supply chains and moving sources closer to their home markets. In
addition, shareholders and board members could question their company's
reliance on China and the Asia region should any further negative
headlines arise regarding quality issues or if China receives bad press
on the handling of protestors and dissidents prior to the Olympics.
While opportunities still exist in Asia, Mexico will become an
increasingly popular source for manufactured goods as companies compete
on time-to-market strategies, seek financial advantages found in
Mexico's multiple free trade agreements and capitalize on Mexico's
investment incentives, streamlined customs processes and abundant
English-speaking workforce.
