Maxon's Sterilizable Brushless Motors Up To 100 Watts!
Fall River, MA --Maxon’s newly improved Motion Control EC 22 motors are equipped with preloaded ball bearings and latest generation Neodymium permanent magnets. The motors feature low vibration and low noise levels even at high speeds. With their nominal torque of up to 44 mNm, an efficiency of more than 90% and a 25% reduced speed/torque gradient, these are truly performance optimized drives
New Harsh Environment Motion Control Servo Drives From Servo2Go!
Servo2Go.com announces the release of the 'AZX' series of embedded, extended environment servo drives, from Advanced Motion Controls of Camarillo, CA, designed to conquer the most demanding of applications!
The AZX series servo drives can control brushed, brushless or voice coil motors under conditions where other products shudder to go. This is especially true since uncompromising reliability is paramount and costs critical to an OEM's success.
New in USA! Shaft Reinforcers (MAS23x) For All NEMA 23 Motors from JVL!
Birkerød, Denmark and Morrow, OH (USA) -- The shaft reinforcement is designed for use with step and servo motors such as the MAC 50-141 series of integrated motion control servo motors. It fits on all NEMA23 step- and servo motors with 6.35mm shaft. The Shaft Reinforcement contains a ball bearing with an outer diameter of 35mm and an output shaft of 14mm. This ensures that the shaft can withstand even high radial and axial loads.
"Gotcha Stick" from STI Features New Dimensions for Human Arm
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.
New NEMA HT24 Stepper Motors Are Ideal For Applications Where More Power Is Required But Changing To A Size 34 Motor Is Not Possible!
Greenville, DE -- These NEMA standard 2 phase 1.8 degree hybrid motion control step motors offer high torque in a compact lightweight rugged housing. A variety of windings are available to meet most application requirements. These motors offer fast damping and high slew rates for better control in full/half or microstep mode. The torque levels reached with this step motor line makes them a cost effective alternative to servo motors in many applications.
New From Maxon Is Revolutionary and Robust, MILE Encoder
Fall River, MA --The general basis of inductive encoders is that the inductance of one or more coils changes in relation to the material used. For example, a semi-circular iron core representing the material measure could be directed to a coil which then changes its inductance. However, there are drawbacks to simple inductive encoders, such as the temperature dependence of the soft iron/ferrite. External magnetic fields can also change the permeability of the material used, well below saturation point.
This is why highly accurate inductive encoders are ironless. The contrast is generated with eddy currents. These encoders have long been featured in large motors, but have not been produced for micromotors until now. maxon motor has invested heavily in the development of these greatly miniaturised inductive encoders.

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."
