Pneumatic actuator
Designed
to combat moisture and corrosion issues in FDA washdown
applications, the Series CG5 stainless steel
pneumatically-driven actuator has a maximum operating pressure
of 1.0 Mpa. It is available in 8 bore sizes ranging from 20 to
100 mm with standard and metric rod end/ports. Smooth
finishing and profiles as well as metal plugs help eliminate
debris buildup, while the rod scraper is designed to minimize
water infiltration to the rod seals, which are available in
nitrile or fluoro rubber.

Precision
rubber rollers
This
company has a library of tooling to produce close-tolerance,
application specific rubber rollers in prototype to short-run
quantities without the custom tooling charges. Technicians
assist in compound and molding/bonding process selection, and
finishing and crowning options achieve specified feeding and
durability characteristics. Alternatives to heavy solid core
designs, particularly for OD larger than 1.5 in., are offered.
Other options included bearing assembly, plastic or metal
gears, drilling and tapping components, precision journal
grinding, plastic- or metal-to-rubber bonding, and segmented
roller assembly.

Chain
plastics
This
company has expanded its use of engineered plastics for use in
industrial plastic chains. Designed for accumulating,
electronic, sanitary and corrosive applications, RS Plastic,
Clip-Top, Poly-Steel and Roller Table chain lines reduce
maintenance, lower operating costs and improve productivity.
The plastics overcome temperature, speed, chemical, mold and
UV issues and include anti-microbial, low-friction, ultra-low
friction and electro-conductive series.

Modular conveyor
control
ZoneControl
series zero-pressure accumulation (ZPA) integrated conveyor
systems includes WLR over-the conveyor, WTR-1
under-the-conveyor and ZLM-1 side-frame-mounted sensors and
controllers. Modular components include photoelectric sensors,
ZPA logic circuitry, daisy-chain cabling, and pneumatic or
solenoid valves, depending upon the configuration. The
circuitry can be manipulated with integrated switches and
external inputs, facilitating configuration changes. ZPA
systems are designed to accumulate and release products with
zero forward pressure, reducing damage to conveyed products.

Cross-roller linear
bearings
Two
options have been added to this company’s line of
cross-roller precision linear bearings. The SQ option is
designed for optical measuring equipment and has a runout of
less than 5 µm over a travel distance up to 1800 mm. Option
SSQ is used for more stringent applications, such as
fiber-optic splicing equipment, and has a runout of less than
2.5 µm over a travel distance up to 1200 mm. Cross roller
linear bearings offer smooth, almost zero friction movement
without the pulsation effect recirculating type bearings have
entering/leaving bearing load zones.
