Robotics: Space-saving and versatile connectors for demanding robot applications

World's smallest zero-backlash positioner With the RollerDrive MR Series, a motor is mechanically reduced while maintaining, and stability. An output motion faithful to input control commands can be attained by achieving zero-backlash with our unique preloaded mechanism. This is a revolutionary Ultra Small FA motion control unit, which combines rolling transmission for high-efficiency and elimination of wear, an orthogonal layout of input and output axes for greater compactness, and standard features like a hollow shaft for greater ease-of-use. Ultra small, zero backlash positioner Ultra small speed reducer that eliminates backlash with its own adjustable preload on the roller gear cam and roller follower. Maintenance free Since there is no deterioration in the precision of the internal parts due to aging, and the unit has excellent durability, there is no need for periodic calibration or adjustment. There is a wide range of motors to choose from A wide range of servo and stepping motors can be installed. (Motors from various motor manufacturers can be used） Mounts in any position The MR main housing can be mounted in any direction, allowing you to create various motions.

The roller drive is the ultimate rotary high-performance positioning device that applies a roller gearcam mechanism in a structure with excellent precision, rigidity, and durability. We have developed a variety of product types specialized for each application, such as high torque for medium-duty driving and high rigidity for improving processing quality. They are active in a wide range of applications such as positioning shafts for machines, cross-section polishing devices for liquid crystal glass substrates, robots for transporting large glass substrates, and positions for large welding machines.

The RA Series is a zero-backlash reducer designed for small to medium-size FA applications. It delivers high accuracy, rigidity, and speed. The RA is suitable for equipment that demand motions with a high level of accuracy and speed.

With the RollerDrive RU Series, a servomotor is mechanically reduced while maintaining powerful torque, rigidity and stability. An output motion faithful to input control commands can be attained by achieving zero-backlash with our unique preloaded mechanism. This is a revolutionary FA motion control unit, which combines rolling transmission for high-efficiency and elimination of wear, an orthogonal layout of input and output axes for greater compactness, and standard features like a large diameter hollow shaft for greater ease-of-use.

ERO-Führungen offers you standard and also customized rotary plates. The turntables can be classified under accessories for slide guides or adjustable slides, but can also be used for other applications. With existing mounting holes or to customer requirements. Do not hesitate to contact us, if you are interested.

The rotary tables from ERO-Führungen are compact but very precise. The external dimensions of the MRT and MORT rotary tables are identical. They are produced at our company in the black forest. Thus, are individual lengths, individual mounting holes and individual widths no problem for us. The rotary tables are used at movement, processing, and positioning tasks. Do not hesitate to contact us, if you are interested.

The direct drive developed in-house impresses with its flat design, compact external dimensions and a hollow shaft with a diameter of 50mm. Cables, vacuum or compressed air lines, light and laser beams, glass fibers or camera lenses can thus be easily guided through the hollow shaft. The absolute measuring system allows an immediate start without previous referencing. With a resolution of 120'000 inc. per revolution, repeatability of ± 11arcsec can be achieved. The single-cable connection can be supplied in right-hand or left-hand output configuration. Together with the patented “Force Calibration” function, undesired cogging, weight and friction forces of the ROTAX® Rxhq direct drives can be easily compensated. This makes it possible to specify, limit and monitor forces in processes. Together with the Forceteq® basic technology included in the XENAX® servo controller, complete force/distance diagrams can be recorded - an additional torque sensor is not necessary. Specific advantages, USP's: - Ultra compact dimensions - Oversized continuous hollow shaft - High torque - no gearbox - Integrated absolute encoder system - Single cable connection

Rxhq = high torque The direct drive developed in-house impresses with compact external dimensions and a hollow shaft with a diameter of 50mm. Cables, vacuum or compressed air lines, light and laser beams, glass fibers or camera lenses can thus be easily guided through the hollow shaft. The absolute measuring system allows an immediate start without previous referencing. With a resolution of up to 2'592'000 Inc per revolution, repeatability of ± 1 arc-sec can be achieved.

Highly productive laser marking system with rotary table for loading and unloading during production

METZ CONNECT has expanded its range of modular PCB connectors in the M12 series to include D-coded variants in accordance with DIN EN 61076-2-101. The connectors are suitable for up to 100 Mbit and can therefore be used for data transmission with all common Ethernet protocols such as Profinet, EtherCAT, Sercos, Powerlink, etc. Similar to the X-coded PCB sockets, the products are available in various forms depending on the installation situation and application. They are available as front panel and rear panel mountings, fully assembled (MMT361A115 and MMT371A115) or as kits (MMT361A115-0001 and MMT371A115-0001). For use in industrial environments, there are variants that meet IP67 sealing requirements when unplugged (MMT361A115-0009 and MMT371A115-0009). For high-volume device manufacturing and PCB assembly according to the latest manufacturing knowledge, the MMT060A115 PCB inserts are also available as a variant on tape on reel with a Kapton plate as an assembly aid (MMT060A1150-G2). Standard 15-inch reels with 160 pieces per reel are used. A major advantage of this product family is that all PCB sockets and inserts (D- and X-coded) have the same height and can be used in combination on a PCB (printed circuit board). In addition, the PCB sockets have a locking mechanism that holds them securely and reliably in the housing or flange, eliminating the need for additional fixing of the PCB in the housing. This PCB socket automatically expands the range of switch cabinet feed-throughs. In the same fully shielded metal housing, it is now also possible to route 2-pair systems from an IP20 environment to an IP67 environment, which in terms of connectors means RJ45 to M12 D-coded. These products are available in straight and angled versions (MWN811A115 and MWN911A115).

Rupture discs and safety valves can be combined in two different configurations: The rupture disc can be installed below the safety valve or the two pressure relief systems installed prallel. If the systems are installed next to each other, the response pressure of the rupture disc is higher than that of the safety valve. If the rise in pressure is so large and rapid that the safety valve cannot respond sufficiently quickly or if it fails to open, the rupture disc serves as a reliable backup system to relieve the pressure. If the rupture disc is installed below the safety valve it can perform a number of roles.
