Industrial robots offer preicise speed measurement as if by magic
No matter how hard we try humans cannot live up to the speed and precision of robots.No human can do it as quickly and as precisely. Modern robots can move workpieces around at a speed that you could once only dream of. Precise measuring instruments are needed to avoid mistakes occurring due to the incredibly quick cycle times required in modern production. For this, the manufacturer Omron Adept Technologies of Dortmund relies on systems made by ...
High precision linear positioning stages are easily integrated
There are now ten high precision, low cost linear positioning stages on offer from OES (Optimal Engineering Systems) that can be easily integrated into new and existing applications. Choosing the best slide for the application is easy.
Incremental encoders help plug the technology gap
To provide users with a versatile and economical user-configurable motion control sensor, SICK has launched the DUS60 incremental encoder and DUV60 measuring wheel encoder with DIP switch programmability.The shaft-mounted SICK DUS60 rotary incremental encoder can be installed and commissioned quickly for a wide-variety of conveying and rotation monitoring applications in automated processing and production.
High performance hoist and angular travel drives offer efficiency
A lot of mid-size crane manufacturers rely on complete hoist drive technology solutions from ABM Greiffenberger, as these drives are specifically developed for this market segment and characterised by a high degree of functionality.With the new GHX-Series the systems provider has now developed new powerful and energy efficient hoist gear drives with outstanding overall energy efficiency. In addition new angular travel drives provide a new option ...
Precision linear stage can adapt itself to any application
When compared with classical motorised, spindle-based solutions, linear stages with magnetic direct drives have advantages, particularly with respect to wear and dynamics. In addition, their features include large travel ranges, high velocities as well as longer lifetimes of the drives. With the PIMag V-508, PI (Physik Instrumente) has a new, compact precision linear stage in its portfolio that is able to adapt itself to various different require...
Linear motor stage with magnetic direct drive
PI has expanded its PIMag series of high dynamics linear motor stages with a new compact positioner for automation tasks.The new V-408 stage is equipped with an incremental linear encoder for direct position measurement and a high-force 3-phase linear motor drive.
