Precision gear reducer
The heavy duty RV-E provides high ratio gear reduction in a compact design. It offers extremely high torsional rigidity and overload torque capacity at 500% of rated torque. Rated torque range is 637 to 60,710 in. lbs. with a peak torque range of 2,600 to 303,555 in. lbs. and ratios starting at 31:1. Total lost motion from all sources, including backlash, spring rate and hysteresis, is limited to a maximum of only one arc minute.

Magnetic angular position encoder
Using MEMs technology, the AS 5020 encoder provides up to 64 positions of non-contact, absolute rotary position sensing. The 6-bit devices provide real-time encoding in applications with rotation speeds up to 30,000 rpm. Absolute positional information is accessed via a 3-wire synchronous serial interface, and is compatible with µ controller-based systems. Multiple devices can be daisy-chained to reduce wiring complexity.

Vacuum generator
Originally a component in this company’s Vacu-Vise system, the VG01 Venturi Vacuum Generator can produce 27 in. Hg vacuum from shop air, providing a holding force of greater than 13 psi. The unit eliminates the need for stand-alone compressors, while reducing maintenance required for moving parts. A 2 liter container allows use of the generator in wet or dry conditions, and magnetic clamps secure the unit to most ferrous surfaces.
