In this handling and packaging machine for newspapers after printing, ETP-EXPRESS of various sizes are used. The final adjustment of levers and timing pulleys in order to get all parts synchronised is facilitated, as only one screw needs to be loosened/tightened. The radial access to the screw permits a compact design. Also hubs of aluminium and cast iron can be used because of the moderate surfac...

The working principle is hydro-mechanical, the product consists of a double-walled steel sleeve which encloses a conical moveable piston. In the flange there are three threaded connections (”ON”, ”P” and ”OFF”) in the radial direction and the same in the axial. This makes it possible to choose radial or axial connection of the hoses. Mounting and dismantling is carried out with a hydraulic pump wit...

Linear motion specialist Power Jacks offers machine screw jacks for high duty applications. The screw jacks can be used in a wide variety of applications across most industry sectors. The high performance S-Series screw jack range is designed to meet the increasing industrial demands on machine screw jacks. Duty cycle capabilities are typically 50 percent higher than standard machine screw jack...

Parallel axes mechanism with flat cams Our success exists most of all in collaborating with our customers, understanding their requirements, analysing the precise problem and creating possible solutions even the most unexpected or resurceful. It is in this context that we develope our industrial project towards satisfying new requirements in mechanical automation with design and manufacture of ...

Complex cam mechanism with various types of cams that produce seven indexing movements and synchronised oscillating outputs. Our success exists most of all in collaborating with our customers, understanding their requirements, analysing the precise problem and creating possible solutions even the most unexpected or resurceful. It is in this context that we develope our industrial project toward...

The MULTI MONT SELLA claw coupling of type MMS-T...W is equipped with a taper bush as a connection element for the shaft. The taper bush is bolted in place in the coupling hub so that a shrink-fit-like connection free from backlash is established between the coupling hub and the shaft after assembly. Due to the use of commercially available taper bushes with a number of different bore dimensions...

PI and PiezoMotor Uppsala Commonly Use Piezo Technology PiezoMotor Uppsala AB, Sweden, and Physik Instrumente (PI) GmbH & Co KG have agreed on a cross licensing of specific patents of each companies patent portfolio. Both parties expect to strengthen their establishment on the market by combining their complementing patents concerning piezo motor concepts. “Together, we certainly cover the most a...

You construct furniture - We provide height adjustments Individually created work stations become ergonomic work station by the installation of Ketterer height adjustment. Stepless height adjustable with crank. Description: Stepless height adjustement for sit workstations with crank. Special features: The kits accord to EU Directives for onscreen work stations, as well as to the latest med...

With the new actuator drive concepts from ZIMM both the elevation and azimuth axis can be precisely adjusted. The main advantages provided by the ZIMM system is an overall reduction in drive components used for vertical and horizontal movement. This substantially reduces costs both in terms of fewer components, longer life and less service. The new ZIMM-Solar-Actuator is specifically designed for ...

Our range of pneumatic cylinders underwent a thorough revision, and apart from their established merits, we implemented substantial improvements. Priority was given to: • Dimensionally stable wire-reinforced PU sealing tape for improved tightness • Piston seals with improved lubrication performance and minimised sliding resistance • Improved piston guiding • Better adjustable damping thanks t...

Replacing three devices with one linear rotary actuator The use of the SMAC linear rotary actuator for a screwdriver has expanded to disc drive assembly. Typical screw sizes are M2 & M3 using STAR socket heads. A common method is the use of an electric, brushless rotary only screwdriver, then attaching this to a high precision pneumatic slide. Electronic screwdrivers can be programmed with a ...

Our company, CAT SRL, located in Cerro Maggiore (MI) has recently opened a production factory in Nanjing – P.R.C., in co-operation with the Chinese company DIN (leader in the production of big taper roller bearings), where we will manufacture high technology gearboxes for the European market. Sophisticated machinery for the production of gears and machined steelworks, modern assembly and test be...

Safety brakes for chain hoists in stage technology Electric chain hoists for stage technology must comply with the BGV standards. Within these standards, there are levels which define precisely for which tasks such hoisting devices are approved. In order to comply with BGV-D8 Plus or BGV-C1, hoists must be equipped with two independent DC brakes, for example with the new ROBA-secustop by mayr po...

Small torque limiting clutch for great constructions The new ROBA-Co-Pro is a compact, performanceoptimised torque limiting clutch, which matches the concept of modern, energy-efficient machines and systems perfectly. Its performance density (Nm/ccm) is up to 6 times higher than on other load-holding torque limiting clutches.

Ogura has enhanced their Hi-Mic5 design to include a shaft designed to a customer’s specification. The electromagnetic clutch incorporates two ball bearing in the field assembly and two ball bearings in the pulley assembly. This means that not only can the clutch handle about a 40% higher speed/load than a bushing clutch it can also take a side load on the pulley so there’s no problem when usin...

In summer 2003 a first contact was established between ATP (Antriebstechnik Peissl GmbH, the Austrian agency of REICH-KUPPLUNGEN) and KTM, one of the leading manufacturers of motor cycles. It was about solving a difficult task: 1-cylinder and V2-cylinder (2- and 4-stroke engines) with ratings up to 125 kW and speeds up to 10 000 r.p.m. were to be tested on test benches. The then installed rubber d...

COLOMBO FILIPPETTI SPECIAL PRODUCTS Our success exists most of all in collaborating with our customers, understanding their requirements, analysing the precise problem and creating possible solutions even the most unexpected or resurceful. It is in this context that we develope our industrial project towards satisfying new ...

Linear actuators with 2-phase stepping motors DRB-Series Oriental Motor provides the new DRB-Series, a linear actuator with a 2-phase stepping motor. This compact and precise drive is ready-to-install and made for a wide range of applications. The new DRB-Series moves with up to 32 mm/s. The driving force is a 2-phase stepping motor with 24 VDC power input. Thanks to the integrated ball scre...

In December 2007 ThyssenKrupp Steel in Duisburg commissioned a new blast furnace. REICH-KUPPLUNGEN, as is almost tradition, again supplied the coupling system for the elevator machine for this application. Already since 1957 couplings for elevator machines for blast furnaces which were built in great numbers at the time, have been supplied at regular intervals. For this new blast furnace, flexib...

SMAC has successfully automated a tapping process for a major watch manufacturer in Switzerland. The process has been carefully done by hand under microscope for many years. Tap diameter is 0.38 mm. Part has a diameter of 3 mm and is 0.25 mm thick. The R&D manager at the facility says that he has been in this business for 20 years and there is no other tapping device existing in the market for this...
