2016-11-22 to 2016-11-24 |
The two groups of customers are, on one side, machine manufacturer OEMs and systems integrators who are looking for components in order to realize their drive tasks, and, on the other side, special machine manufacturers or end users who prefer solutions, sometimes including the complete engineering. Many people made their visit to the fair worthwhile and discussed their application with our experts. |
2016-02-18 | A 26-bit position sensor with a resolution of 0.019″ (one 200 thousandth degree) is applied for moving an antenna supposed to follow the orbit of a satellite with a repeatability of ±1 arc second. Using a special firmware, the Servo Drive New Generation is able to run the also supplied torque motor with a velocity of 0.25 degrees per minute – this is one revolution per day! |

2015-11-24 to 2015-11-26 |
Our focus this year was on the various possibilities to realize linear movements, from classical toothed belt and spindle axes via linear motors to particularly clever alternatives to pneumatic and hydraulic cylinders. But of course, rotational applications with AC servo motors and torque motors also did not miss out.
