Apex Dynamics UK appeared at the PPMA 2024 show in Birmingham promoting the ways in which planetary gearboxes shape our world and showcasing its new couplings and MG/MGH gearbox ranges.

Portescap announces the M-Sense16 magnetic encoder as the perfect pairing for the demanding requirements of diagnostic analysers and lab automation equipment.

Delta is expanding its product portfolio with the introduction of the new AX-5 series advanced slice I/O modules. The AX-5 modules are designed to elevate industrial automation with their ultra-slim profile, saving up to 50 percent space in control cabinets compared to traditional I/O module series.

Machine designers looking to apply precise distant measuring systems to linear carriages and rails have always had to consider the design, fit, compatibility and reliability of the extra hardware involved. When space constraints and performance are key to design requirements Schneeberger's Monorail AMS from Moore International is the answer.

Designers are still missing out on the efficiency and cost benefits of using standard parts in product development, according to global parts provider norelem.

Mike Bacon, internal technical applications engineer at Matara UK, looks at the common mistakes made by customers in relation to ball screws for linear motion applications, from poor product choice, through to incorrect installation and maintenance practices.

WEG has launched WEGSEE+, a software platform designed to simulate energy efficiency projects. The tool enables users to analyse the energy impact of changes to electric motors, drives and gearboxes.

Micro-Epsilon has introduced the Dual Processing Unit (DPU) to its range of interface modules. The DPU, which replaces the C-Box/2A, enables synchronous data acquisition from two sensors at higher measuring rates (up to 100 kHz) and can also be used for digital/analogue conversion.

The miniaturisation of power transmissions enables design engineers to create dynamic solutions that improve accuracy and efficiency while offering practical benefits in terms of footprint and ergonomic design. Selecting a gearhead to integrate with your motor at the point of specification is a cost-effective and reliable method of adapting a miniature motor for a specific application, as the experts at Portescap explain.

LG series aluminium hole stays from KABELSCHLEPP Metool improve the service life of the cable carrier and the flexibles, therefore the sustainability of the overall system.
