Motion Products
In-line torque
transducers. Non-contact differential transformer measuring
technology avoids rotation of electronic components during
operation. Four models have an integrated electronic module
providing 0 to ±10 VDC torque output. Magtrol

Planetary gearhead.
When compared to fixed planet configurations, low-cost,
quietly-running Equalizer gearheads provide up to 11% efficiency
increase and 20% decrease in torque ripple. The planet gears
dynamically adjust their radial position between the mating
sun gear and internal gears through a pivoting link. The loads
are evenly distributed through all three smoothly meshing
planet gears. Thomson Industries Inc, Port Washington,
NY. Free info--Circle 742. http://www.OneRS.net/104df-742
Hollow-shaft
servo actuator. Incorporating high-precision harmonic
drive gearing, a brushless DC servomotor and an optical encoder,
the FHA-C actuator delivers 30 arc-second accuracy, high stiffness
and short axial length. HD Systems Inc, Hauppauge,
NY. Free info--Circle 743. http://www.OneRS.net/104df-743
Servo amplifiers.
One and two axis E-VF series servo amplifiers interface
with standard motion control products, allowing the company's
linear motors to be integrated into multi-axis systems without
an external linear position encoder. LinMot,

Helical lead
screws. PowerAc Speedy Metric High-Helix lead screws provide
fast-moving travel rates and high load rates at low rotational
speeds. The standard lead accuracy for these screws is ±0.21mm/300mm
and custom accuracy up to ±0.1mm/300mm. They can replace
hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders or provide a low-cost alternative
for drive belts in applications requiring short stroke movement.
