MOTION CONTROL COMPONENTS IN THE SPOTLIGHT!
New Featured Motion Control Components 
New R22i Optical Encoder From MicroMo and the Faulhaber Group
MicroMo Electronics, Inc. is pleased to announce the new motion control R22i optical transmissive encoder. The R22i has rugged PET 530 housing material with an IP-40 rating, making it a perfect match for light automation and office automation applications. It fits where much larger and more costly encoders are generally required, making the R22i the perfect choice for saving space and benefiting from high resolution Opto-ASIC technology. This full-featured optical incremental encoder provides velocity, direction of rotation and position feedback for Faulhaber DC motors.
The R22i offers a range of resolutions and multiple output options. Common incremental encoder resolutions of 256, 512 and 1024 line count with A, B and Z channels are available from stock. The R22i, with single-ended outputs, offers a simple design with minimal cost. The differential line driver version provides enhanced EMI noise immunity for a more robust system.

Multi-axis Crossed Roller Positioning Stages From H2W Technologies Is Designed for Harsh EnvironmentsSanta Clarita, CA -- H2W has released a number of custom designed Multi-axis Crossed Roller Positioning Stages, or XRS Stages capable of producing high speeds in unique motion profiles. The photo above shows a XRS Stage designed to operate at -200C. The motion control XR Positioning Stage is a compact, small cross section open or enclosed positioning stage for short stroke linear servo applications (up to 12 inch stroke). It is driven by either an iron core or ironless core 3-phase brushless linear motor and guided by 2 sets of parallel cross roller bearings. The dual parallel rail sets offer excellent load carrying capability. XR Positioning Stages are used in the following applications: Pick and Place, Vision Inspection, Parts Transfer, or Clean Room Environments. H2W Technologies, Inc. is dedicated to the design and manufacture of linear and rotary motion products that are used in the motion control industry. We are committed to providing every customer with the optimal solution for their motion application in the shortest possible time, at the lowest possible cost using only the highest quality products.

"Gotcha Stick" from STI Features New Dimensions for Human ArmScientific 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.

Entertainment Engineering An Online Magazine for Motion Control Engineers! Entertainment Engineering is a magazine that covers hydraulics, pneumatics, electronics, software, and electromechanical motion control 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.
