Today, most linear-motion designs execute their strokes with actuators based on stepper motors or brushless DC (BLDC) servo motors. A leading player in this field is KSS, which offers mini actuators of the CAS series (distributed by Dynetics) with precise, short strokes for use in single and multi-axis assemblies. In some applications, linear shaft motors are the better choice because they have virtually maintenance-free operation throughout their entire service life and, due to their design,...

Dynetics assists engineers throughout Europe in selecting a suitable fan for their application. Offered is a wide range of axial, centrifugal and centrifugal fans with AC or DC power supply, suitable for a variety of applications thanks to intelligent designs and continuous development.

Fans with EC motors have a number of positive characteristics. Firstly, they have a very high efficiency and maintain this efficiency even at partial speeds. This means that in most cases they consume less than a third to a half of the electricity used by the traditional shaded-pole induction motors used in the ventilation and refrigeration industry, which in turn leads to lower operating costs and short payback times.

Piezoelectric motors belong to the group of small motors and use the piezoelectric effect to generate motion. They can operate linearly and rotationally. The principle of a piezoelectric motor is based on a movement of the moving part of the motor (rotor) through a change in the frictional force. This occurs when a voltage is applied to the piezoelectric material. The combination of two out-of-phase voltages induces an elliptical motion whose tangential force component drives the rotor.

Nippon Pulse permanent magnet (PM) stepper motors (PF series Tin-Can stepper motors) are firmly established in mechanical engineering and offer many advantages over other types of stepper motors. They have an excellent price-performance ratio and are suitable as a low-inertia, low-resolution, low-cost alternative to hybrid stepper motors in many applications.

KSS has released the CAS series (distributed by Dy‍netics) with high-performance mini actuators for precise strokes on a small scale and for use in single and multi-axis assemblies. The linear actuators have a long service life. The compact and powerful lightweights are 15 by 23.5 millimetres small and available in lengths of 107 and 127 millimetres.

The linear shaft motor is a direct drive consisting of a shaft with rare earth permanent magnets (iron-boron neodymium alloy) and a runner made of cylindrical coil windings. The shaft provides the magnetic fields on which the runner acts. The driver assembly, in combination with the amplifier and control electronics, generates the power for the motor. A small current generates a great force. In this article, the mechatronics specialist Dynetics describes the further advantages of linear shaft...

Hägglunds Fusion drive systems bring a new definition of compact to the already space-saving Hägglunds drive concept. An entire hydraulic direct drive system can now be mounted on the torque arm, making Hägglunds advantages even more attractive for a wide range of applications.

Many devices with electronic components are becoming more powerful and have an increasingly high packing density. Convection cooling is the most common and cheapest method of dissipating heat. When passive cooling is no longer sufficient, forced ventilation becomes necessary – for example with two new fans from Dynetics.
