The cycloid gear manufacturer has now expanded its line-up to include sizes 80 and 160 and a new housing shape. For the user, this means more options and greater flexibility in automation.
Bin picking has proven itself in the production of Kendrion Intorq: there, a 3D camera system takes over the automatic recognition and a robot takes over the gripping as well as the feeding and returning of rotors during CNC machining.
Measuring gears from KBK Antriebstechnik should deliver an exact position signal even in harsh environments. The components are therefore ideally suited for the measured value protection of rotary encoders in critical applications. The gears achieve their high precision through their unique backlash-free construction and customer-specific gear ratios.
Findling is now offering manufacturers of agricultural machinery and attachments housing bearings from the manufacturer FYH with integrated sealing technologies. Bearing inserts of the UC series have a centrifugal disk that rotates with the inner ring and immediately throws away coarse dirt when it hits it.
Quadrant transitions (“overshoots”) are a known problem when machine tools perform circular machining operations. An innovation from NSK now makes it possible to reduce the effects of overshoots.
