Condition monitoring systems and the importance of the encoder
Whether you are operating a mine, a mill or a power plant, the goal is to generate expected yields and associated revenue. These factories or plants operate continuously to meet their targets. Downtime that is experienced from unplanned failures accounts for lost productivity, and overall costs rise as the difficulty of repair, access, and planning for support equipment contribute to the issues.
Encoders for extreme demands at steelworks
Extreme 1000 series. That is the name of the latest range of encoders to come out of the development department in Strängnäs. And they certainly live up to their name. For some considerable time it was the well-known 800 series that set the standard for ...
Integrated drive motor for smooth motion control
HEIDENHAIN angle encoder modules with ETEL integrated torque motor provide drive, control and measurement with very high accuracy in one compact system. With its angle encoder modules named the MRP series, HEIDENHAIN has already given manufacturers of high-precision rotary axes enormous support ...
Industrial robots: Encoders for tool center point accuracy
Position accuracy of industrial robots has sometimes been inadequate, but that's changing thanks in part to output-side encoders from HEIDENHAIN and AMO.
Did you know that TNCs were used in replication of a large-scale model locomotive?
This 1:5 scale replica of the attractive J.A. Maffei LAG 64 steam locomotive will be used in a museum and theme park in Germany.
Did you know that DutchAero uses HEIDENHAIN products in measuring and quality of aircraft parts?
DutchAero, with its parent company KMWE, developed a measuring device for quality assurance that fulfills present tasks and is also equipped for the future.
Connected Machining: Digital networking for Industry 4.0
HEIDENHAIN CORPORATION meets the need for connectivity and digital networking with control solutions and options in its new “Connected Machining” catalog.
Encoders for safety related applications
HEIDENHAIN offers encoders that can be used in safety-related applications. These encoders operate as single-encoder systems with purely serial data transmission via EnDat 2.2. Reliable transmission of the position is based on two independently generated absolute position values and on error bits. These are then ...
Encoders uniquely tailored for electric automation
HEIDENHAIN will present encoders designed specifically for the robotics, medical technology and drive technology industries at the 2017 SPS IPC Drives show.
Top trends that will affect your 5-axis machining next year
Updated March 28, 2022Five-axis machining is an increasingly prevalent capability in shops large and small. Still, many are just scratching the surface of what’s possible. Technology innovations and process improvements are a boon for ease of use, and while growth in manufacturing overall is slow, ...
