MOTION INNOVATIONS Compact flat cylinder The square end cap de sign on the B Square Series of pneumatic cylinders reduces the centerline distance between adjoining cylinders, and permits either flush face or horizontal mounting. Split design, oil-impregnated rod bushings provide longer bearing length in a smaller space to increase load capacity and life. The series is offered in standard and non-rotating versions, with magnetic and non-magnetic pistons. Standard bores are 3/4- to 4-in. -- non-rotating are to 2-in. Numatics Actuator, Franklin, TN. http://www.1rs.com/006df-431 Free Info - Circle 431 Unitized stepping motor system The Stepping Motor Cube integrates a NEMA 23 stepping motor, drive, control and communications capabilities into a single compact unit. Fitting easily into systems where panel space is limited, the Cube offers a choice of three motor frame sizes and several motor windings with a 3A rms continuous rating, to manage torque levels from 50 to 175 oz in. DeviceNet communication provides a simple interface to the main controller. Whedco Inc, Ann Arbor, MI. Free Info - Circle 433 Low cost, hi-resolution encoder Two inexpensive units in the Microlinear (ML) Encoder series are available for tight-space applications such as XY measuring stages and semiconductor manufacturing. The ML-08 (0.8 µm/period) and the ML-16 (1.6 µm/period) both have an option for Phase A/Phase B signal with sinusoidal wave or rectangular wave output, or Phase Z pulse output. Connected to an IU-80 interpolator, the ML-08 obtains maximum resolution of 0.01 µm. Canon USA Inc, Lake Success, NY. Free Info - Circle 430 Radial piston motors. A hydraulic release safety brake has been added to the MHA line of radial piston motors, along with a rear drive shaft for tacho or high-resolution encoders. The heavy-duty motors have pistons supported on columns of oil, resulting in few moving parts. There are five frame sizes offered, with 11 different displacements ranging from a 20 hp unit with speeds to 1000 rpm and maximum torque of 344 ft lbs, to a 173 hp unit with speeds to 300 rpm and a maximum torque of 5296 ft lbs. Nutron Motor Co, Eliot, ME. http://www.1rs.com/006df-434 Free Info - Circle 434 Cylinder-indication sensors Providing precision end-of-stroke sensing for hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders, Strokemaster inductive proximity sensors also eliminate post-installation cable management problems through connectors with 305 degrees of rotational freedom. Infinitely adjustable and lockable cable positioning can occur anytime after the unit is mounted to the cylinder, without breaking seals, enabling quicker installation and tidier cable runs.
