Innovative single-axis electrical positioning system for handling applications, the system uniquely comprises of a guide assembly with a fully integrated linear servo motor and displacement encoder.
Festo will be launching an innovative single-axis electrical positioning system on the UK automation market at PPMA 2005.
Primarily intended for handling applications, the system uniquely comprises of a guide assembly with a fully integrated linear servo motor and displacement encoder, together with a programmable positioning controller incorporating all the power electronics.
The motor technology is patented and is capable of very high positioning speeds and accuracy.
The system is easy to integrate - it is mechanically fully compatible with the complete range of Festo Plug and Work handling and positioning system components - and provides a highly cost-effective, ready-to-run solution for precision positioning applications.
Visitors to PPMA should have no trouble locating the Festo stand.
Just inside the entrance to Hall 9 at the NEC, Birmingham, UK, a fluidic muscle actuated, animatronic character will welcome visitors and introduce them to the new products on display.
In addition to the handling axis, Festo will also be previewing the latest developments in intelligent valve terminals incorporating fieldbus-based diagnostic facilities.
PPMA exhibition, NEC, Birmingham, UK.
September 27-29, Hall 9, Stand 9110.
