Up to 40% reduction in machine costs for direct printing
The innovative Tesseract printing machine began as a sketch concept on a napkin after the engineers from Norwalt Automation had seen a demo of the XPlanar system from Beckhoff: Magnetically floating movers position printing parts with six degrees of freedom in motion. This allows a single print engine to cover a wide range of geometries,…
See CleanAR in action
After the first tests in an unclassified room, we took the CleanAR prototype into an ISO 7 classified cleanroom. And we tested it with the people who know the job best: the cleaning operators themselves. Their feedback shapes every next step in…
TDK introduceert serie AC-DC- voedingen met hoge vermogensdichtheid voor compacte, efficiënte en stille medische en industriële systeemontwerpen
TDK Corporation kondigt de introductie aan van de TDK-Lambda CUS1600M en CUS2000M AC-DC-voedingen voor medische toepassingen. Ze leveren tot 2 kW en combineren een uitzonderlijk hoge vermogensdichtheid met een rendement tot 95% en een laag geluidsniveau. De voedingen helpen ontwerpers bij het ontwikkelen van kleinere, energiezuinigere en stillere apparatuur voor de medische sector, de industrie…

The next step on our Innovation Roadmap!
Over the past years, we have been steadily expanding our knowledge in production planning and scheduling for highly automated manufacturing environments. Building on earlier work and in collaboration with Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), we focused on one of the key challenges of autonomous production: efficiently scheduling parallel machines that can operate without direct supervision,…

MUSA 3 microsurgical robot
Microsure’s MUSA-3 is a robotic system for open microsurgery that scales the surgeon’s hand movements and filters out tremor, allowing precise suturing of vessels, nerves and lymphatic vessels less than a millimetre in diameter. Watch the video [Source:…
Dust: 0 particles. Something many of us can only dream of.
At home, dust always comes back. In our flow cabinets it does not get the chance. A flow cabinet blows filtered air over the work surface in one steady direction, so dust and other particles are carried away from the product. Our Fluke 985 particle counter measured 0 particles from 0.3 µm up. That is…

The Motion Controller — More Than a Command Generator
In Part #3, I wrote about what turns individual precision components into one integrated motion system. An essential part of that system is the motion controller. But what does a motion controller actually do? At first glance, its role seems straightforward: execute commands and move the axes to their required positions. In reality, there is…
