STAC6 220 VAC Stepper Drives provide software selectable resolutions from 200 to 51,200 steps/rev at speeds up to 50 rps. Self-Test and Auto Setup measure and configure motor parameters automatically, while anti-resonance technology eliminates midrange instability for higher motor speeds and fuller use of available torque.

The DNCE screw-driven linear actuator has a nonrotating round piston rod suitable for conversions from pneumatic to electromechanical automation. the DNCE is a drop-in replacement for the Festo DNC and other pneumatic cylinders based on ISO standard 6431.

The RHDi uses precision bearings, metal code disks, proprietary custom LED illumination, and custom Opto-ASIC circuitry. It comes with a standard 2.6” square mounting flange, and can operate in temperature extremes from 100°C to -30°C.

Quattro s650 robot has a 4-link parallel drive and carbon fiber construction to provide packaging cycle times which are twice as fast as previous packaging robots at up to 240 pick-and-place cycles per minute. Applications include light payload packaging and handling in the food, consumer goods, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries.

Digiset 6 makes presetting boring and milling tools quick and easy with an intuitive control system and software. Digital camera imaging shows measuring results almost instantly on the on-board color display. Operators can manage up to 1,000 tools simultaneously and choose from programs that perform axial and radial runout inspection, cutting edge inspection, zero point monitoring and measurement of multi-bladed tools.

3800 Series, for use in conveyor systems that transport containers and boxes with individual weights of up to 300lb, operates with the drive components located away from the conveyor area, reducing the risk of contamination that may have adverse effects on the drive performance.

PSR softstarters offer users a full set of knob-adjustable functions for starting and stopping 3 to 45 A, three-phase motors, up to 600 VAC in a compact package that easily mounts in small control panels and equipment enclosures.

The NDC8 control platform now supports up to 10 AC drives per AGV. The drives can be used for steering, driving or auxiliary control, and AC technology helps increase power while reducing running costs. It has an OPC client, allowing for a smooth connection to any I/O resource on the market.

26DAM Series Digital Linear Actuators provide linear force up to 120 oz. (33 N), linear step resolution of 0.001, 0.002 and 0.004 in., and 3.4 Watts of power for fast response times and precise positioning capability.

IPS210 controls DC and stepper motors up to 2x12 W (24 V, 0.5 A) with very low inductance, in open or closed loop modes. A single power supply is used for both logic and motor. Its embedded motion controller uses the same high-level motion language for both DC and stepper motors. Complex movement sequences can be programmed directly on the drive while system control functions can be handled from the supervising PC.

The SM2315DT has an 8-pole compact rotor with high copper filling factor. It achieves a high energy density as well as efficiency that results in more torque capacity. It delivers 112 oz-in of peak torque, 57 oz-in of continuous torque, and maximum speed of 4700 rpm.

MOTORTEC STP (Speed, Torque and Power) Calculator for rotational device calculations has been upgraded to include automated conversions of units, and a printable report with all unit conversions. It can be downloaded from the company's web site.

SoftMotion Development Module for LabVIEW allows machine builders and OEMs to create customized motion controllers. Enhancements include support for Windows Vista OS and CompactRIO controllers for motion control.

M40 powerfast connectors are suitable for motor applications, handling up to 600 Volts and 55 Amps: enough power for a 30 horse DC motor or a 55 horse 3-phase AC motor.

SKF hybrid bearings with silicon nitride rolling elements and steel rings provide insulation against stray currents in large variable speed electric motors to eliminate electric arc bearing damage and resulting premature bearing failure. The ceramic rolling elements also make these bearings lighter, harder, and more durable.

The EC200 24V DC-powered RollerDrive combines high speed and integrated intelligent electronics. The four-quadrant controller permits controlled accelerations and decelerations as well as constant conveyor speeds over the entire weight range.

RCML15 compact optical encoder provides signals for brushless motor commutation as well as incremental position feedback in a low profile (0.350” height) optical encoder.

The self-contained intelligent system controls accumulation for up to four conveyor application zones, including any combination of straights, merges or diverts. The Z-card can interface with any Interroll RollerDrive product, including both brushed and brushless solutions, significantly enhancing the control capabilities of virtually any conveyor system.

Kinetix 2000 drives are now available in ranges of 300 watts to 3 kW. Other enhancements include a power rail and a SERCOS interface.
