NSK has developed its latest four-row tapered roller bearings for rolling mills to offer a number of class-leading performance and environmental benefits. The work roll bearings use newly developed, water-resistant grease that is fully sealed into the confines of the bearing. With the new bearings, service life is typically doubled in challenging conditions such as those where there is a high risk of water penetration. In addition, the sealed design means that grease consumption is far less than that exhibited by a conventional ‘open’ bearing, while the risk of contaminating the environment is greatly reduced.
Softing Industrial Data Networks will show smart gateways for multi-protocol process control and a mobile plug & play solution for configuration and maintenance of field devices at the trade show SPS smart production solutions from November 26 to 28, 2019, in Nuremberg, in Hall 5, Booth 346.
Kollmorgen has introduced the next generation of Motioneering, the company’s innovative servo sizing tool. Motioneering was introduced more than 20 years ago – the first tool of its kind – to help mechanical design engineers find the ideal motion products to build into their machines. It streamlines and simplifies the design process by incorporating 100+ years of Kollmorgen expertise about which motion solutions work best for specific applications such as factory automation, robotics, material forming, and many others.
NSK used the recent EMO 2019 exhibition to introduce its optimised RA series of recirculating roller bearing guides with enhanced sealing technology. RA linear roller guides are equipped with new V1 seals and an improved cover, thus helping to increase the service life and reliability of machine tools.
Delta, a global provider in power management solutions, today announced the integration of its lithium-ion energy storage system into Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Engine & Turbocharger, Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as MHIET)'s innovative triple hybrid stand-alone power supply demonstrated in the Triple Hybrid Station, a demo power plant located in MHIET’s manufacturing site in Sagamihara, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan.
ElectroCraft, Inc., the global fractional horsepower motor and motion solutions provider, has expanded its DC motor drive lineup for the CompletePower™ Plus Universal Drive and PRO-Series.
Aerotech, provider of high-performance motion control and positioning systems introduces the AGV-SPO, a new high-performance Galvo Scanner. It offers a larger field of view than conventional 2D scanners, reduces laser spot distortion, and is flexible enough to accommodate a wide range of laser wavelengths thanks to a large variety of mirror surfaces. As a result, the laser scanner is suitable for a wide range of applications, from additive manufacturing to medical devices.
With their BMP series Balluff has added a new intelligent displacement sensor which provides not only the absolute position signal for the stroke travel of a piston via IO-Link but also information about the sensor status and the current ambient conditions.
