ZSH series stepper motors built for harsh environments
The specialist ZSH-series stepper motors from Phytron are now available from its new distribution partner Mclennan, and are built for use in especially harsh industrial environments.As part of a wide range that spans proven use in environments from deep space and ultra-high vacuum to standard industrial, the ZSH in particular is designed as a cost effective solution for truly harsh industrial use where standard build stepper motors would have sev...
Micro motor connectors reduce installation times
Connectivity and sensors provider,TE Connectivity (TE),helps servo motor manufacturers keep up with motor connectivity trends by offering a wide range of connectors and associated components for different types of electric motors. TE’s product line spans proven, standard connectors and customised cable assemblies, through to the latest sensor and magnet wire innovations.
DSEI 2017: Distributor highlights sensors, capacitors
The Defence and Security Equipment International(DSEI) exhibition (12-15 September) at ExCeL in London's Docklands will provide a platform for distributor TTI and its franchises. Many of TTI’s franchises have customers that operate in the defense, aerospace, security and other hi-rel sectors.
Oscillating beam rig tests low frequency sensors
Accelerometers and velocity meters are used to measure a wide range of frequencies, including low frequency vibrations found in building maintenance. They occur at less than 2Hz, and can also be useful in monitoring bearing wear in cooling tower fans and gearboxes for example.
Kit simplifies speed measuring sensor designs
Development kits for sensors from Infineon are significantly reducing design effort – and thereby development time and system costs. For reliable and fast measurement of speed, Infineon Technologies has announced the new Hall sensor TLE4922 as well as the 'Speed Sensor 2Go' design kit that goes with it. The TLE4922 was developed for industrial and automotive applications, where fast and reliable measurement of speed is critical, such as spe...
One lightweight motor drive takes one big leap into space
It takes a year for the Earth to revolve around the Sun, and without that Sun there would be no Earth or us.The Sun plays a vital role in our existence and yet we know so little about it, until now. In 2018 ESA is sending a Solar Orbiter into space which will be equipped with a thick heat shield.
Parallel motion basis for new positioning systems
Industries such as micro-assembly, semiconductor testing, and automated photonics packaging require multi-axis motion with nanometer precision and dependability.Worldwide nanopositioning equipment leader PI (Physik Instrumente) has engineered and released two new compact multi-axis positioning stages based on low-profile parallel-kinematic motion devices. Driven by piezo ceramic motors, nanometer precision is achieved along with high stability ba...
Regulated high voltage DC power supplies boast fast response
A new range of programmable, DC regulated power supplies have been announced by Glassman Europe, the GX Series, its most powerful to date. The GX Series is a highly-specified family of 25-200kW fast response, air insulated power supplies, boasting tight regulation combined with low ripple and noise.
Ensuring efficiency in rotary encoders when generating signals
A new BlueBeam technology has been developed for incremental rotary encoders with optical sensing principle increases efficiency when generating signals.Specially developed blue emitter LEDs, combined with modern and more finely structured sensing chips, allow a more energetic penetration depth of the blue light in the chip. The result is a higher resolution, significantly improved signal amplitude, and a considerably improved signal quality.
Ensuring reliable feedback from exposed linear encoders
Exposed, incremental linear encoders are the feedback system of choice from the axes of CNC equipment for applications where very high positional accuracy is required, for example in semiconductor manufacturing and measurement, printed circuit board assembly machines, metrology equipment and high precision machine tools.
