Renishaw announces more new products for EMO Milano 2015
Renishaw is announcing more new products that will be demonstrated on hall 5, stand D15 at the EMO Milano exhibition taking place in Italy, from 5th - 10th October. These include a new vision measurement probe (RVP) for use with the REVO 5-axis measurement system, a new improved version of the REVO measuring head and a new free software suite for Renishaw calibration systems.
The advantages of capacitive vs. optical encoders
In partnership with Ingvar Andermo, CUI Devices has developed a proprietary method of measuring rotational movement by implementing an ASIC to detect changes in the frequency of a signal modulated by capacitive reactance. Used for years as the key technology in digital callipers, it has been applied to position encoding in the form of the AMT series modular encoder.
Pittman introduces BGE series servo motor controllers
PITTMAN Motors is introducing its latest offering: the BGE Series of Servo Motor Controllers, a family of compact 4-quadrant positioning motion controllers with integral output stage to control Pittman brushless and brushed DC motors.
High resolution DVR add-in card targets surveillance
Designed for professional video surveillance applications, the VRC7008E (DVR) Digital Video Recorder PCI Express (PCIe) add-in card has been introduced by Exar. The VRC7008E card features the Exar S7100 software configurable processor and performs H.264 encoding on eight channels of up to 960H NTSC/PAL video at full resolution and frame rate.
5-axis machining centres should be fitted with linear encoders
Compared with rotary encoders, linear encoders provide more accurate feedback of actual cutter position to the control of a machine tool. Uneven distribution of heat in ballscrews caused by friction leads to inaccuracy when using the ballscrew pitch to translate revolutions of a rotary encoder into linear distance travelled. Errors from drive deformation and backlash are also present. A glass linear scale fixed to a slideway is immune to these er...
Encoder offers accuracy in the range of 1-1.5°
Portescap introduces the M Sense B Encoder, designed specifically for applications that require high accuracy in a compact design. The M Sense B is the first in its class to offer accuracy in the range of 1-1.5°, covering a resolution band of up to 1,024 lines with an integrated line driver resulting in accurate positioning and speed control.
