MICROMO introduces the BS22-1.5 spindle drive from the FAULHABER Group. In the case of rotary drive tasks, the conversion and optimal adaptation of mechanical torques to the respective application usually occurs by means of finely graduated reduction gearheads. High-precision lead screws in combination with DC-Micromotors, Brushless DC-Servomotors or Stepper Motors also make it possible to convert the […]

Festo ELGA linear drive delivers high feed force
Festo introduced the ELGA linear drive — a cost-effective electric toothed belt axis that comes with high feed forces as well as flexible motor attachments. It features an integrated plain-bearing guided belt drive that is easy to handle and fit, aside from being ideally suited for positioning lighter loads quickly, allowing machine builders to save […]
LC 200 Linear Scale from HEIDENHAIN
HEIDENHAIN’s new LC 200 linear scale sets new standards in linear measurement on long machine-tool axes. With this scale, the advantages of absolute position acquisition are now available for measuring lengths of up to 28 meters (almost 92 feet), and provide that reference routines, which can be particularly cumbersome on long axes, become unnecessary since […]
