Steinmeyer Offers Air Bearing Performance Without Air Bearings
Steinmeyer PMT Stage

Steinmeyer announced an innovative, cost effective decoupling arrangement for ball screw drives that enables our standard PMT 160 series stages to achieve breakthrough performance - namely straightness and flatness runout of 50 nanometers or less! And we do it using mechanical cross roller bearings instead of large and expensive air bearings. The decoupling system isolates any transverse movement of the ball screw from the linear bearing system and saddle of the stage. ...More >>

R+W America Offers a Highly Flexible Servo Coupling
RW America DoubleFlex Servo Coupling

Tolerance stack-up in machined interfaces between motor frames, gearboxes, and their driven shafts will normally result in slight misalignment in the lateral and angular directions. While most motor mounting brackets allow for sufficient alignment to work with standard bellows couplings, occasionally a given machine layout will require high performance couplings to accommodate more than a few thousandths of an inch of shaft offset. ...More >>

FESTO Offers the HGDS, a Combination Semi-Rotary Vane Actuator (DSM principle) and Parallel Gripper (HGPP housing)
HGDS Semi-Rotary Vane Actuator and Parallel Gripper by FESTOThe linear movement of the gripper’s operating cylinder is transmitted to the gripper jaw by means of a piston rod passing through the rotary actuator, providing for a low overall height. The modified DSM features a new stop system, allowing the setting of the desired swivel angle between 0° and 210°. As a result of the combination of these components, the HGDS is an extremely flexible and compact unit. The HGDS can be used for a wide range of applications. The main applications will be wherever rotating and gripping functions are required in confined space conditions, particularly in: • General handling technology • Electronics industry • Special mechanical engineering Distinguishing functions of the HGDS: • Adjustable swivel angle • Elastic dampening or hydraulic shock absorber ...More >>

Floating Shaft CD® Couplings From Zero-Max Shock Proof Reciprocating Motion In High Speed Servo Powered Partition Inserters From Wayne Automation
Floating Shaft CD Couplings by Zero-MaxNewly introduced Partition Inserters (Model SF-400) from Wayne Automation Corporation cycle once every second and travel 38 inches vertically. Every up/down cycle accurately inserts solid fiber or corrugated partitions into cartons that hold bottles and plastic containers ready for shipment to the marketplace. How do these Wayne inserters maintain repeatable accuracy 24/7 at these high speeds? The answer is their robust innovative design using servomotors connected to backlash-free Zero-Max CD couplings. These couplings damp out shock and vibration from the inserter’s vertical reciprocating and intermittent motion and maintain insertion accuracy cycle after cycle. “To operate without problems, conventional vertical inserters require near perfect fiber or corrugated partitions,” reports Jay Bachman, vice president of engineering for Wayne Automation. ...More >>
