Torque Limiter Finds Drive Problem During Machine Test

Installing some type of torque limiting device in your machine system is very often a wise idea. This is especially true where there is human interaction, but it’s also smart to include them in other types of processing equipment. A common objection to designing them into standard machine designs is that they sometimes cost more than the components they are thought to protect. But that’s really a secondary consideration. The prime reason to add them to machine designs is to eliminate the downtime associated with removing damaged components, finding replacements, and installing new ones. This [...]

Mount Gearheads Vertically

Often times we see customers mount servo gearheads like SESAME incorrectly. In many instances, the first reaction is to mount horizontally, but this is not a good practice. It is essential when installing a gearbox, to do it vertically instead of horizontally. This video explains why. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfOF3fve4-k

IEC and NEMA Motors

IEC vs. NEMA Motors A large percentage of our customers produce their machinery for both the North American domestic market as well as for the various export markets of Europe, Asia, and South America. This often causes a design issue as power sources are different from market to market. Different motors should be specified to optimize the design, which then alters the gearboxes used with them. Most of our gear products have a solution for that complexity. Here is an example of one of those gearbox products when it came to IEC vs. NEMA motors. [...]

Replacing HYDRAULIC lifting systems with ELECTROMECHANICAL systems

There is a widespread push in North America to replace hydraulic lifting systems with electromechanical systems. This trend has been going on for many years in Europe and is now really taking hold in North America. Many engineers are now tasked with the job of eliminating environmentally unfriendly hydraulic oil with systems that are purely electromechanical. When making this changeover, a number of important factors need to be considered to make sure the new design will work properly, efficiently, and reliably over the life of the system. This webinar allowed engineers to [...]
