Technosoft announces the new IBL3605, a remarkably compact intelligent servo drive measuring only 65 x 58 x 19 mm, that reaches up to 600 W peak power. Although extremely compact, the IBL3605 embeds motion controller, drive and PLC functionality in one unit, and has the flexibility to control brushless, step, DC or linear motors up to 180 W (36 V, 5 A). It can be mounted right beside the motor, all...

A new application has been developed for tugging caravans and boats. The gearmotor is made up of a D.C. motor, a prestage and a worm gearbox. It’s an effective system in order to move and park caravans and boats in the parking lots, suitable for short and slow movement. The use of the prestage increases the efficiency in this application.

Portescap, A Danaher Motion Company, has introduced hollow-shafted versions to its revolutionary family of h3 stepper motors. Hollow shaft models promise increased design flexibility by allowing wires or other media to be routed through the motor shaft, effectively reducing the space required of the motor solution. h3 hollow shaft step motors are available in NEMA 17, 23 and 34 frame sizes (short,...

A major upgrading of the control for two large fans has given both improved throughput and payback in under a year thanks to substantial energy savings. Two modular Unidrive SPM AC drives from Control Techniques have produced immediate energy-savings and paid for themselves in record time. At Civil and Marine’s Middlesbrough plant, situated on the coast adjacent to the Corus steelworks, blast f...

Many companies will be aware that there are potential savings from switching to variable speed drives – but how much? Civil & Marine managed a payback in months, with savings of £hundreds per week – every week. Their Control Techniques sales engineer worked out the potential savings using an energy-saving estimator – which proved to be remarkably close to the real-world savings achieved by Civi...

Already a star at home The AR-Series introduced in 2008 already won a price in Japan. Within the award of products with outstanding energy-saving performance the new stepping motor got the price of the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. The contest, conducted by “The Japan Machinery Federation” (JMF) since 1980 and for the 29th time, yearly awards companies contributing to energy sa...

An innovative (patent pending) concept for the modular design of planetary gearheads is being used for the first time. Performax® drives combine high power density and smooth running. Compared with other similar specified products on the market, Performax® gearheads offer outstanding power density* and excellent smooth running. Transmissions of up to 17:1 in the first stage allow the use of single-...

Marechal Electric manufactures a comprehensive range of both industrial and hazardous-area electrical connectors from 5 to 700 A. However given the pressure on costs faced by industry, we are promoting in particular a new concept for our Decontactor sockets. The decontactor has been traditionally used as a general supply socket outlet in various industries up to 250 A. However the decontactor i...
