STOBER goes PROFIdrive and PROFIsafe

High-efficiency drive controllers with safety technology

New PSBN055, PSN055 and PSFN055 compact precision gearboxes from Neugart The increasing demand for compact servo drives in mechanical engineering has led to a corresponding need for smaller gearboxes that are suitable for these drives. In response to this market need, Neugart is introducing three new precision planetary gearboxes in frame size 055: the PSBN055, PSN055, and PSFN055. These new additions extend the proven capabilities of the Precision Line portfolio. The three new models, PSBN055, PSN055, and PSFN055, are helical gearboxes from the Precision Line PSN, PSFN, and PSBN series in frame size 055. Please note that the frame size refers to the square dimension or centering collar diameter of the output flange, which in this case measures 55 mm in width. Despite their compact dimensions, the gearboxes offer high torque density and high precision in the smallest of installation spaces. These gearboxes are well-suited for use in electronically controlled servo drives of small handling units in packaging and many other machines. All three new developments are available with one or two stages and a range of ratios from i=3 to i=100. These models feature a rotary shaft seal and are rated to protection class IP65. Moreover, their planetary carriers feature a cage design, which greatly enhances the construction's torsional stiffness. Additionally, the torsional backlash can be reduced by 2 arcmin at the customer's option. Individual design details While the three new models share many similarities, they also feature key differences that make them ideal for specific applications. The PSBN055 and PSN055 models feature a smooth output shaft (with either a smooth design or a feather key), a square-type output flange, and robust deep groove ball bearings or preloaded tapered roller bearings. The PSBN055 impresses with its economy and efficiency.

AS-Interface (ASi) has long been an established feature of drive control. This is where the advantages of the globally standardized wiring system are especially conspicuous: the simplest installation thanks to the piercing technology, free selection of topologies, high flexibility and low costs. For many years Bihl+Wiedemann has been offering the ideal drive solution for many different applications – including roller drives, AC drives with and without frequency converter, as well as for 24 V motors. Our range of solutions is focused on leading manufacturers such as Lenze, SEW-Eurodrive, Itoh Denki, Interroll, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS and RULMECA. We also develop custom ASi solutions on request.

We combine proven standard products with customised, cost-optimised drive solutions – perfectly tailored to your requirements. From evaluation, design and validation to product certification and support. - Customised drive systems - System integration and optimisation - Prototypes and accompanying studies Project example (full story available in the download area): Antrimon developed a unique valve actuator for a global equipment manufacturer facing extreme operating conditions. The requirements were demanding: operation in ATEX and IECEx Zone 22, ambient temperatures from 5 to 50 °C, lifetime exceeding 10 million cycles, high continuous and acceleration torque at low speeds, minimal heat generation and maximum energy efficiency – all in a compact design with worldwide certifications (ATEX, IECEx, CE, UL). No such solution existed on the market. Antrimon’s answer was a fully customised brushless outer-rotor motor combined with a two-stage planetary gearbox. The design focused on delivering maximum torque at the lowest speed, exceptional robustness and reliability. With a maintenance-free concept – no brushes, no oil changes – the actuator is built for continuous heavy-duty operation. The entire process, from feasibility analysis and mechanical/electronic design to prototyping, extreme-condition validation, certification and series production, was handled in-house. The result: significantly lower energy consumption compared to pneumatic systems, extended maintenance intervals, improved process safety and full global compliance. This solution gives the customer a clear competitive edge in international plant engineering. Antrimon is the only provider worldwide able to deliver such a certified solution economically from concept to series production.

Antrimon Group AG has a global and broad network of business partners. Electric motors, drives and gearboxes of the most diverse technologies are manufactured for us in various production facilities around the world. This means that projects can be approached completely independently of technology. The focus is on the optimal solution for your application. We will be happy to support you in the evaluation and design of your drive.

The DTS+ track system incorporates key features of Hepco’s PRT track system and original DTS, combining them with a high load capacity connection for carriages to the drive belt. The carriages will not disengage from the belt, allowing transmission of higher driving forces compared to the original DTS conveyor system. Whilst the original DTS will often be the right choice for many applications, the DTS+ is suitable for applications with high loads, a vertical orientation, or where the free space inside the track circuit is required to integrate additional equipment.

The DTS2 High Speed Driven Track System has been developed for high-speed applications. The use of a scroll drive allows rapid indexing to be achieved with superior positional accuracy without the risk of carriage disengagement. The track system is available with three sizes of slide section (25mm, 44mm and 76mm).

DuoDrive is a revolutionary integrated gear unit/motor concept in hygienic wash-down design. It combines the high-efficiency IE5+ motor and a single-stage helical gear unit in one housing. Thanks to its optimised system efficiency, high power density and very low noise emissions, it is especially suitable for users in the fields of intralogistics, food and pharmaceutical industries. Together with its simple plug-and-play commissioning, the complete DuoDrive solution results in a significant reduction in Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) compared to other drive systems.

The DYNAMAG is a dynamic linear solenoid for short-stroke electrical applications in mechanical engineering.

The DYNAMAG short-stroke solenoid is the simplest solution for electrically implementing short strokes in machines. It is the result of a collaboration between the two innovative Swiss companies Cyltronic AG and Isliker Magnete AG. The integrated electronics in the DYNAMAG reduce the energy consumption in the end positions to a minimum. This allows high forces to be generated without the actuator becoming hot. Cycles of up to 250 cycles / minute can be achieved with the dynamic solenoid. The high forces of up to 32N can be offered in 4 stroke lengths of 10mm, 15mm, 20mm and 25mm. With the reverse stroke function, the forces can be applied both pulling and pushing without the need for a spring return. The highlight is the integrated end position sensors which transmit the end position signals directly to the control unit, thus ensuring cost-effective implementation.

The JBC dynamic inclination sensor offers an innovative solution for accurate angle measurement, even in the event of disturbances such as a vehicle starting or braking, or vibrations and shocks. The device detects acceleration and rotation in three dimensions, as well as temperature data. By filtering out motion disturbances, the Kalman filter ensures accurate inclination values even in the most dynamic of applications.

LINE TECH dynamic modules are ready-to-install linear axes driven by racks (DM…ZS…) or toothed belts (DM…ZR…) for the highest demands on dynamics and service life. The dynamic modules can achieve very fast cycle times under high loads. Thanks to the special design of the extruded aluminum profile, the very torsion-resistant base body is also suitable for self-supporting applications. Two sizes (DM2… and DM3…) are currently available.

The battery-free e-paper label, also known as the electronic shelf label, is increasingly being used in modern production and logistics processes. Information such as order and product data, QR codes, storage locations and more can be flexibly designed and transferred to the e-paper via NFC. The labels can be written on as often as required and in a short space of time, without the need to print paper labels. By dispensing with batteries and paper, this solution is also sustainable. The combination of an e-paper tag with a PDA or MES system, for example, offers enormous advantages in terms of productivity and quality. - Cost savings - Live data in production - Sustainability - Paperless identification - Can be combined with ERP, PDA and MES systems - No need to replace the battery
