E-Motion LLC introduces the Knudtson P-358 and P-200 low profile rack & pinion 12VDC linear actuators. These linear actuators offer a simple, low-cost solution for high-speed, medium force applications. Speeds range from 4 inches/second to 8 inches/second with force to 100 lbs, and an overall height profile of under 3". The P-358 single rack model is available with travel to 67" and 4-8 inch/second speed, and may be used as a rod-type or gantry-type actuator (external guiding required). The P-200 double rack & pinion actuator features synchronized opposing motion at 8 inches/second, with travel of up to 67" per rack, ideal for applications such as double doors. Each actuator is built to the specified travel from .5"-67", with several end connection configurations available. Delivery in low to medium quantities is typically 4-5 working days. Custom design requests are welcome.

Maxon’s EC-powermax 22 achieves extremely high torque at slow speeds compared to other similar-sized brushless DC motors. As part of our standard program, it is available in two lengths and has an operating range between 90 to 120 watts depending on the version. Easily combined with 32 mm planetary gearheads using maxon’s modular system. The existing rotor comprising 2 pole pairs is fitted with the best magnetic material currently available on the market. For electronic commutation, the magnetic field is sensed through Hall sensors and the rotor position detected.

Voice Coil Powered Linear Positioning Stage

Valencia, CA — High resolution, compact, voice coil stages with up to 50.8 mm (2 in.) of travel, with no force or velocity ripple for very smooth motion are ideal for precise motion control applications such as scanning, lens grinding, and laser and mirror positioning. One current application is in a Neonatal heart pump. These direct drive, zero backlash stages with an encoder resolution as low as 0.0001mm (0.1 micron), acceleration up to 98 m/sec2 (10g’s), and no moving cables, offer the benefits of higher performance and greater reliability than belt or lead screw mechanical drive systems.

Ultra Motion supplied the actuator used in shifting the Volkswagen Touareg SUV that won the 2005 DARPA Grand Challenge. The VW Touareg SUV had to be able to shift into forward, reverse, and park. To win the DARPA Grand Challenge an unmanned vehicle had to navigate a twisting course through 132 miles of desert, go around rocks and boulders, cross ditches and berms, go through an underpass, avoid rock walls and sharp dropoffs, and other obstacles. The VW Touareg SUV completed the 132 miles in the winning time of 6 hours and 53 minutes for an average speed of 19.4 mph.

Santa Clara, CA - Lin Engineering, the Step Motor Specialists, are pleased to introduce the new SilverPak 23D; an integrated NEMA 23, High Torque, 1.8° step motor and microstepping driver. The SilverPak 23D is designed to help reduce overall design time and system cost for a wide array of step motor application s needing high torque.

Longmeadow, MA - New technology, self-lubricating, linear slides and table assemblies are economical, quiet, low profile, maintenance free, and easy to integrate into new and existing applications.
