Integrated Linear Systems
Buy vs. Build? The Choice is Easier.
Chris Blaszczyk is the Manager of Product Development, Automation Components Div., Misumi USA, Inc. You have choices on how to precisely move a load in a single axis: actuators, linear guides, slides, stages, or tables will all handle the required motion. To control their function, you may choose among hydraulics, electromechanics, electromagnetics, or other means. […]
High Precision Linear Positioning Stages
E. Longmeadow, MA – New “Slipstream” Series 1 linear stages are available from LM76, Inc. These compact linear stages feature 0.2 mm/300 mm accuracy and 0.1 mm repeatability. Available in travel lengths to 6 meters these easy to install precision stages have “T-Slots” on three sides for installation and/or accessories. The “Slipstream” linear stages are […]
Bridge Modules from Bosch
Charlotte, NC – Rexroth has expanded its extensive range of linear modules with the new BKK and BKR Bridge Modules designed to span long lengths without intermediate support. The Bridge Modules consist of an extruded aluminum profile whose geometry has been optimized for extremely high torsional stiffness, reducing deflection in applications where the module is […]
eLINE Compact Modules from Bosch
Charlotte, NC – Bosch Rexroth has developed the new eLINE Compact Modules, broadening its extensive range of pre-assembled linear systems. These maintenance-free modules are well suited for small handling, medical, and packaging operations with loads up to 60kg. eLINE Compact Modules offer Rexroth quality and performance at a lower cost for applications with less rigorous […]
camoLINE Cartesian Motion System from Rexroth
Charlotte, NC – Rexroth has introduced an innovative approach to Cartesian Motion Systems that provides building-block style modular design of material handling, pick-and-place, palletizing, inspection, and related applications. Called camoLINE (camo=Cartesian Motion), the system includes electromechanical and pneumatic axes, bolt-together connection technology, and aluminum structural framing, which allows engineers to create the best fit for […]
Linear Motor Stage from Aerotech
The ALS130H, with its sub-nanometer resolution, bi-directional repeatability, and low-velocity performance is the unparalleled solution for high performance test, measurement, inspection, and other demanding applications. The ALS130H employs a center-driven, non-cogging linear motor as the driving element. Since the linear motor is a direct-drive device, there is no backlash, windup, or “stiction” normally associated with […]
PSK Precision Modules from Bosch Rexroth
CHARLOTTE, NC – Bosch Rexroth has extended its line of PSK Precision Modules to include the PSK 40, now the smallest size in its product line. The new size PSK brings high-precision solutions to medical, semiconductor, and small machining applications, where high stiffness and rapid cycle times are required. To speed deliveries, Bosch Rexroth has […]
Parker Releases Industrial Grade HD Series
Irwin, PA – Parker’s Electromechanical Automation Division has further expanded its family of positioners with the new HD Industrial Grade product. The new HD-N offers superior bending moment of inertia for high rigidity and minimal deflection; lubricated-for-life, maintenance-free bearings and ball screws for lower total cost of ownership; easy-to-select custom motor mounts for Parker and […]
Linear Ball-Screw Stage
The ATS115 linear ball-screw stage has side seals to keep dirt and particulates out of the stage. This protects bearing surfaces from contamination, which significantly increases stage and bearing life. The seals are also vertically oriented, deflecting debris away from the stage. What’s more, the robust aluminum hard cover is hard coated for scratch resistance. […]
