Four cross-sectional widths are offered. For loads up to 300 lbs. Velmex Inc, Bloomfield, NY. Free info—Circle 221. www.rsleads.com/202df-221

 

 


Motion controller. Designed for the PCI bus format, the compact DMC-1417 single-axis motion controller measures 4.23- x 7.3-in. Features include an extra encoder input for electronic gearing and memory for application programs, variables and arrays. Galil Motion Control, Rocklin, CA. Free info—Circle 222. www.rsleads.com/202df-222

 

 

 


Bearings. Incorporating CERBEC silicon nitride ceramic balls, the Fafnir TSSH bearing series is designed to operate at high speeds with high accuracy and long service life. Dynamic non-contact seals keep out contamination. The Torrington Co, Torrington, CT. Free info—Circle 215. www.rsleads.com/202df-215

 

 


Compact PLC. Boasting the power and performance of a mid-size PLC in communication, motion control and speed, the FP £ PLC has the size of the Nano PLC. Features include multi-master communications at 115.2 Kbps, networking capabilities, servo or stepper control of 100 or 60 kHz each for 2 axes, short circuit protection for outputs, 32 bit RISC processors for a 0.4 us scan time, and up to 3 additional serial ports. Aromat Corp, New Providence, NJ. Free info—Circle 223. www.rsleads.com/202df-223

 

 

 


Stepping motor. The PV series of 2-phase hybrid stepping motors produces over 25% more torque than similarly-sized comparable motors. Step angle accuracy is 2 arc-min. There are 32 models in the series from 106 to 440 oz-in. holding torque. Oriental Motor, Torrance, CA. Free info—Circle 224. www.rsleads.com/202df-224

 


Self-lubricating bushings. AST650 series bushings are designed from cast bronze-based material to withstand high load. Finely-finished radial holes embedded with a solid lubricant covering up to 30% of the surface withstand high temperatures. AST Bearings, Montville, NJ. Free info—Circle 225. www.rsleads.com/202df-225

 


Motion controller. An embedded PC option has been added to the Emerald EMC-2000 multi-axis motion controller, enabling the application programmer to run 3rd party or custom PC applications without risking real time performance. The programmer can specify the exact nature of the controller resources available to embedded PC, thereby building a firewall against PC software timing delays or crashes. Industrial Indexing Systems, Victor, NY. Free info—Circle 226. www.rsleads.com/202df-226

 

 

 

 

 


Optical encoders. Two low-cost panel-mount optical encoders have a resolution of 25 PPR, are rated at 2 million life cycles, and have 4 output configuration options — solder hole, lead wire, pc board mount or header connector. The EC204B025A has detent and a maximum input of 5 VDC, whereas the RE25NS25X is available in models with 3.3 VDC (CMOS) or 5 VDC (TTL) input and with or without detent. The latter model has a push switch built into the rotating shaft. CUI Stack Inc, Beaverton, OR. www.rsleads.com/202df-715


Encoder. The Cube series Accu-Coder is available with the Eurofast connector, which reduces stocking require-ments for electrical connectors.
