New! Motion Control Information Added 3-14-2012
MOTION CONTROL COMPONENTS IN THE SPOTLIGHT!
New Featured Motion Control Components:
Scientific Technologies, Inc. (STI), introduces the new "Gotcha Stick" Safe Distance Scale. This three-segment safe distance stick accurately tests the allowable barrier opening size based on the distance from the point of operation. It features English measurements on one side, and Metric measurements on the other. Although not officially adopted by OSHA, the "Gotcha Stick" is based on data from "A Review of Machine-Guarding Recommendations," by Donald R. Vaillancourt and Stover H. Snook of the Liberty Mutual Research Center for Health & Safety. This data redefines the dimensions of the human arm for the purposes of machine guarding. The resulting new stick has been modified to include openings of less than 1/4 inch over the first 1/2 inch distance. Click here for more information.

Clearwater, Florida - The MPS range of micromechanical motion control systems includes high-precision 4-point contact and linear ball bearings as well as precision ball screws. The MPS, which evolved from the Swiss watch and measuring instrument industry of the 1930s, is recognized as a global benchmark when it comes to the production of miniaturized components. It is renowned in particular for its expertise in centerless machining, which produces a degree of precision in circularity and concentricity that would be impossible to achieve with conventional methods.

Device Overview: · 254, 500, 750, 1000 and 1500 mm travel · 100 kg load capacity · Up to 420 mm/s and up to 560 N thrust · Built-in controller · Daisy chains with other A-series and T-series products Click here for more information.
Santa Clarita, CA -- A New high precision, high speed two axis voice coil positioning stage featuring 0.1 micron resolution encoders for high accuracy and repeatability is available from H2W Technologies. "Voice coil" or "Moving coil" motors are recognized for their low moving mass and high acceleration/deceleration. Therefore voice coil driven positioning stages are ideal for short stroke, closed loop, applications requiring high resolution, and high acceleration/deceleration control. Typical applications can include: Semiconductor testing and assembly, inspection and test, laser micromachining, and applications in research laboratories, and manufacturing, medical, and defense industries.

Greenville, DE --— Galil Motion Control, an industry leader in motion control technology, is announcing the DMC-300xx Pocket Motion Controller Series, their latest generation, single-axis Ethernet motion controller. It combines a high performance motion controller and a 800Watt sine drive in a low cost, compact 3.9 in. x 5.0 in. x 1.5 in. package. The DMC-300xx is also available as a controller-only model which can be connected to a stepper or servo motor amplifier of any power range. Using a 32-bit RISC processor and improved power technology, the DMC-300xx provides higher speed, better power efficiency and smaller size than their prior generation controllers. The DMC-300xx is designed for single-axis motor control applications where compact size, low cost and remote location are important. Click here for more information.
Santa Clarita, CA — Compact, High Speed, High Acceleration, Zero Cogging, with integral linear bearings are features of the NCC Series of linear motion Voice Coil Actuators releases by H2W Technologies. NCC Series Voice Coil Actuators are available from stock with strokes up to 5.2 in. (132 mm); longer strokes are available on request. The internal shaft and bushing bearing system guides the coil as it moves and allows for a compact overall size. Click here for more information.
JVL presents two new AC Servo Motors with built-in controllers and direct AC mains supply with same capacity and length as traditional servo motors Birkerød, Denmark and Morrow, OH (USA) -- JVL, the European leader in the development of integrated servo and stepper motor technology, has now again developed new and unique products in the field of integrated motor control.

MotionShop.com Puts the Spotlight on Motion Control Publications!
Entertainment Engineering is a magazine that covers motion control, hydraulics, pneumatics, electronics, software, and electromechanical technologies that are used in many types of entertainment devices and events such as movies, concerts, theme and amusement parks, electronic games, and racing and sporting events. Co-founder Terry Persun explains why it was important to maintain the look and feel of a magazine at www.entertainmentengineering.com . "We felt that many web sites, especially the web sites of engineering magazines, are confusing to readers who may not easily identify which portions are editorial and which portions are purchased advertisements that are not subject to the scrutiny and integrity of editors," says Persun. "That confusion is absent on our web site." Click here for more information.
