It has all the features you would expect like SIL3 safety and standards\u00a0compliance, sub millimetre precision and true zero speed. It also contains\u00a0some less common like silent brakes, intelligent duty cycle management\u00a0and real-time data logging.<\/p>

Apex is compatible with all Kinesys\u2019 existing software control solutions which\u00a0allows for seamless integration into existing systems. The Mentor series 4\u00a0range provides the necessary interfaces to allow Apex\u2019s new safety over\u00a0data technology to work alongside our existing product ranges.<\/p>

Ease of use has always been central to Kinesys\u2019 product design. True to that\u00a0philosophy is the ability to daisy chain power between drives using industry\u00a0standard Ceeform or L21-30 cable. The safety over Ethernet technology in\u00a0Apex also allows the data to be daisy chained through the drives using\u00a0standard Ethercon cabling, reducing the cable runs required to connect the\u00a0system together.<\/p>

The on-board safety features also mean that custom power distribution\u00a0is not required for the Apex system, you can either use the Kinesys PD\u00a0designed for the Apex range or your own existing stock if you prefer.\u00a0SIL3 monitoring of speed, ramps, load, position and brakes means that\u00a0any creative application can be supported by Apex. When working with the\u00a0Mentor 4 controller, groups of hoists can be assigned and protected with a\u00a0SIL3 rating as well.<\/p>
