Stainless steel actuator for washdown applications

The all stainless steel ERD actuator from Tolomatic with protective motor enclosure (ERD-SS2) accommodates both servo (23-frame) and stepper (NEMA 17 and NEMA 23-frame) motors.  Combine any ERD-SS2 with the Tolomatic ACS servo or stepper drive and get a complete motion control system with high performance at a very competitive price.  Features include: Clean-in-place compatible IP69K rated 3 … Continue reading Stainless steel actuator for washdown applications

Low-cost Belt-drive Actuator designed for harsh environments, loads up to 520 lbs (235 kg) by Tolomatic

New trapezoidal solid-bearing actuator design optimizes performance in moderate-loading applications requiring high duty cycle and high speed over long strokes. Tolomatic’s family of MXB electric belt-drive actuators includes a new solid bearing load-carrying design ideal for harsh environments.  The trapezoidal solid bearing provides a rigid, long-lasting bearing system capable of operating in environments that roller … Continue reading Low-cost Belt-drive Actuator designed for harsh environments, loads up to 520 lbs (235 kg) by Tolomatic

Positioning Stages for Vacuum Applications

Lintech provides many different sized positioning tables, each available with lots of standard options.  One option which is not described much in any Lintech literature is that most of the screw driven tables offered can be supplied, in a customized variation, to meet some pretty significant vacuum environments.  Lintech has made many positioning tables for vacuum applications. … Continue reading Positioning Stages for Vacuum Applications

An Introduction To Plug-and-Play Motion Subsystems

Bell-Everman White Paper Reprint November 2015 Embedding mechanical motion subsystems into machines improves performance and reduces cost. If you build machines, you probably work with actuators and positioning stages every day.  But do you truly get the best performance or lowest cost of ownership from these motion devices?  The answer may not be what you … Continue reading An Introduction To Plug-and-Play Motion Subsystems

From Air to Electromechanical

It’s not a big news story that the world’s population is getting exponentially bigger.  With this growth there is a greater demand for modern packaged foods.  A great example is India. It is projected that sales of package foods will almost double from $24.6B last year to $43.7B in 2016.  Many of the world’s largest … Continue reading From Air to Electromechanical

Complex Mechanical Projects from Lintech

Sometimes a standard assembly, linear slide, linear actuator, or positioning system is not the right choice for a particular motion control application.  It may also be impossible, or not practical, to have the system built in house by your own design team.  Let us take a look at your special requirements.  We have been designing … Continue reading Complex Mechanical Projects from Lintech

Reduce Manufacturing Costs by Cycle Time Effects

The key to reducing production costs is found in Cycle Time effects.  You may be able to further reduce costs if you look closely at the CT effects. So what exactly are CT effects?
