According to the company, Faulhaber's magnetic disk motors are more powerful. Thanks to their high acceleration and direction change capability, the motors are suitable for automation applications.

Steinmeyer Mechatronik, the Dresden-based specialist for positioning systems, now offers the universal KT310 cross table for testing and measuring technology with an optional central glass scale.

Automating simple tasks quickly, easily and cost-effectively: This is the aim of Igus with its low-cost automation products. To this end, the motion plastics specialist has developed a completely new product.

Misalignment on the drive or output train of machines can stress the shaft bearings and impair production quality. Articulated couplings can compensate for high radial and angular misalignment.

The miniature couplings from Jakob are designed as servo compensating couplings for the offset or axial displacement of two axes.
Expansion of the stepper motor range

With effect from July 19, 2018, Faulhaber Antriebssysteme acquired Dimatech, a Swiss manufacturer of high-performance stepper motors using disc magnet technology.
