As part of MRMC’s impressive array of ‘motion rigs’, Heason Technology has recently supplied design expertise and components for an EtherCAT controlled 6-axis hexapod that is used as a model mover. With its 1500 kg payload, MRMC’s servo motor driven ‘motion...

Selection of the appropriate RediMount adapter is made simple with Thomson’s Linear MOTIONEERING product sizing and selection tool - used to calculate the optimised combination of linear actuator or gear unit with an appropriate motor. The tool will generate the dimensional detail for the...

The manipulator was used as part of the enabling technology for the world-wide Avogadro Project that was formed to redefine the kilogram as the SI unit of mass in terms of the Planck constant and the atomic mass of Silicon-28. On the 20th May 2019, on World Metrology Day, the global metrology...

Spinea are a prominent distribution partner for Heason, producing high precision zero-backlash reduction gear units with high-torque capacity and especially suited to high accuracy positioning tasks where extreme axial and radial rigidity is essential. As a gear reducer and radial-axial...

For AGVs, an optional patent-pending feature for the EPS removes the need for time consuming homing routines at power-up or the need for external position sensors by integrating absolute position feedback for the turning wheel. The power steering system can also be used with Allied Motion’s...

Typical stepper motor driven positioning mechanics, including stepper actuators, drive a lead screw that translates the motor’s rotary motion into linear motion and force by way of a captive nut. This requires additional support components and an external anti-rotational device for the...
