"We want to replace our servo motors." 💬 This is something we often hear from our customers. When you need precision AND have limited space, servo and stepper motors are usually not your best option for linear motion. ❌ Rotary by default, these motors need transmission mechanisms to convert rotational motion into linear motion, such as lead screw or ball screws. This adds size, weight and complexity. But what if this can be avoided altogether? 🤔 Unlike stepper- or servo-driven actuators, Xeryon's ultrasonic actuators are direct-drive and designed for linear motion. Ultra-compact. No gears. And instant high-speed motion. ⚡ Giving engineers more freedom to design the products they really want. --- In this series of posts, we'll go over the main differences between traditional miniature actuators and Xeryon's ultrasonic piezo actuators. Stay tuned. #ultrasonic #piezo #linearactuator #linearmotion #motioncontrol #downsize

Brushless technology means high power-to-weight ratio, high speed, and total electronic control. It means higher efficiency and lower susceptibility to mechanical wear; high torque-to-weight ratio; reliability, longer lifetime, and lower noise. Among our brushless products, the DBS series is the cutting edge in the world of automation and motion control. In fact, brushless motors support 6 different field buses, they have an integrated drive and a multi-turn absolute encoder, capable of storing the last positioning coordinates for up to 6 months. All-in-one servomotors and gearmotors, with perfect integration of all components, optimized design, excellent performance, and advanced connectivity. In short, the ideal products for Industry 4.0 scenarios. #minimotor #minimotorturkey #minimotortürkiye #miniredüktör #miniredüktörlümotor #MadeinItaly #redüktör#gearbox #riduttori #güçaktarım #powertransmission #FiRedüktör

Magnetic grippers for cylindrical cells 🔋 The gripping of cylindrical cells during the production of electric vehicles represents a particular challenge. The cylindrical cells must be consolidated as closely as possible, to enable optimal use of the limited space in the vehicle. This is only possible when the gripper is located in the shadow of the battery. With a focus on modular thinking, we enabled our battery cell gripper to be optimally adapted to such respective process. This process-relevant design was implemented and combined with.. ✅ a holding force of 50 N, which ensures that the cylindrical cells are held securely, even at the highest accelerations and during an emergency stop. ✅a low residual holding force under 1 N, for technical cleanliness and a reliable depositing when the magnets are deactivated. ✅ combined with piston position sensing as well as battery presence sensing. ✅ axis compensators and centering plates to compensate cell misalignments.

Magnetic grippers for cylindrical battery cells🔋 During the production of electric vehicles, gripping cylindrical battery cells is a challenging process. The battery cells must be consolidated as closely as possible to enable optimal use of the limited space in the vehicle, and the gripper needs to grip within the confines of the specific profile of the battery. With a focus on modular thinking, we optimized our battery cell gripper to adapt to such a rigorous process. This process-specific design was implemented and combined with: ✅ a holding force of 50 N per cell, which ensures that the cylindrical cells are held securely, even at the highest accelerations and during an emergency stop ✅ a low residual holding force under 1 N, for technical cleanliness and reliable depositing when the magnets are deactivated ✅ piston position sensing as well as battery presence sensing ✅ axis compensators and centering plates to compensate cell misalignments ✨ 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗻𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗯𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗴𝗿𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝘁 #𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝗶𝗻 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗴𝗼!

[#Julight #Products - LVM Series] The Julight LVM Series is a #measurement system which is unique on the market because it offers a range of combination of up to two Laser Triangulation sensors (for testing of internal combustion engines) and one Laser Doppler Vibrometer (subtraction of common-mode vibration) for testing of internal combustion engines. The Laser #Triangulation #sensors allow easy and accurate measurement of the valve motion, with the possibility of using two sensors for the same cylinder to simultaneously measure the motion of two valves (intake-intake, intake-exhaust, exhaust-exhaust) while the signal from the #Laser #Doppler #Vibrometer can be internally subtracted from the valve displacement measured by triangulation sensors. This is highly useful to get rid of the unwanted vibration of the engine head, thus obtaining a cleaner and smoother valve motion signal.  For this purpose, the Laser Doppler Vibrometer beam is aimed at the center of the cylinder's head for easy and accurate measurement of the valve motion.  SAVE SPACE, MONEY, TIME! #vibration #vibrationanalysis #vibrationmonitoring #automotivevibrations #laser #lasertechnology #laservibrometer #vibrometer #contactless #italianexcellence #italianexcellenceforvibrations #automotive #valvemotion #valves #engines #enginemeasurement #allinone

UT 180° actuators offer an extended range of rotation beyond 90° quarter turn applications. Double acting actuators can be ordered in custom lengths between 120° and 180°, or extended travel stops can be used on the stock 180° actuator to adjust travel anywhere between 0° and 180°. Spring return actuators are available in a standard configuration (0°-180° travel, spring return to one end) or in “center return” configuration (0° ± 90° travel, spring return to the center). UT 180° actuators offer the same patented dual travel stop design (excluding 3 Position DA) w/ extended travel stop options and multiple mounting options for the ultimate flexibility. #thebestwaytoautomateyourprocess
