Stepper drive and indexer offered at under GBP200
Parker Hannifin's Electromechanical Division is offering its new XL25i stepper drive and indexer, together with a compatible 23 frame motor and PC-based motion control software, for just GBP199.
Drives include low-cost entry module
Parker Hannifin's Electromechanical Division will be launching a number of innovative stepper and servo products targeted specifically at the OEM market.
Fara Technology used a range of Parker equipment, including the company's latest Moduflex Valve System and Moduflex60 FRL manifold regulators, to operate the rotary turbine applicators used within the enclosure.
The regulators and valves, controlled by a PLC and housed within a cabinet on the front of the machine, are used to control the applicators.
In addition to providing simple open/close functionality, the pneumatic equipment also regulates the pressure fed to the applicators.
Precise control is necessary to ensure consistency of atomisation and allow the equipment to meet the production quality standards of material demanded by the automotive industries and other critical end-users.
Fara Technology has equipment in most major steel and aluminium plants around the world, as well as in a number of food producers.
It provides specialised electrostatic coating systems, including blade applicators, rotary atomisers, circular nozzles and air atomisers.
These systems apply coating weights from as little as 2mg/m2 to more than 5g/m2 at temperatures up to 100 deg C and line speeds up to 2000m/min. Request free introductory details about products from Parker Hannifin ...
