Microsystems for linear or rotating
movement
EMS (Electro Mechanical Systems) is able to offer solutions to customers who need mechanical microsystems that control linear or rotating movement.
Since becoming the exclusive UK agent for Swiss miniature high-precision bearings and micro-mechanism manufacturer MPS (Micro Precision Systems), EMS (Electro Mechanical Systems) is able to offer solutions to customers who need mechanical microsystems that control linear or rotating movement The ultra-precision products are suitable for the world's smallest and most accurate mechanical and electro-mechanical devices

Ultra-flat motors are just 2mm thin
Ultra-flat motors - with spindle speeds up to 60,000 rev/min - are for use with scanning heads, microfans, micropumps, high-precision positioning systems and many other innovative applications.
Low-profile motors fit every application
A range of high-performance, low profile miniature motors allows high rates of acceleration to be achieved with minimal flutter, and provides complete freedom from cogging.
The products from MPS, which is part of The Faulhaber Group, fully complement EMS's own custom design and manufacturing capabilities yet extend these to now include even smaller sizes.
EMS is able to offer custom design mechanisms using motors from 2 mm in diameter up to 80mm, with power ratings from 60 microW to 240W, achieving torque ratings form 12 microNm to 250Nm.
Typical fields of application include medical devices, semiconductor manufacture, optical measurement and the watch industry.
With ball diameters extending from just 1.588mm (0.0625in) down to 0.2mm (0.0079in), these ultra-precision products are suitable for mechanical and electro-mechanical devices that require high accuracy.
MPS, like EMS, manufactures very few standard products and sell primarily into specialist micro-miniature applications where its expertise in special designs and industrialisation processes are needed.
EMS represents all of the products manufactured by MPS and its parent company, The Faulhaber Group. Request a free brochure from EMS ...
