This webinar on demand looks at selecting the optimal motion technology for your application. Many experienced designers think they know the motion technology options available but are often surprised by the latest developments!
Although linear motion on machines usually uses pneumatic or electric drives, there are more options than it might initially seem. The latest pneumatic technology now offers features traditionally associated with servo-electric drives. Point-to-point electric drives are becoming more cost-effective and can replace some movements traditionally done by pneumatic cylinders.
With the landscape further complicated by new servo and digital pneumatic technologies, picking the solution with the optimal performance, cost and energy efficiency for your application can be challenging or enlightening.
This webinar explains the technologies available and use a real machine design example to demonstrate their appropriate use, helping you to achieve an optimal design and, in the worst case, avoid an expensive redesign. It looks at the range of technologies available, including:
- Traditional pneumatics – point to point
- Servo pneumatics – pneumatic positioning
- Digital pneumatics – controlled pneumatic motion
- End-to-end electric – electric positioning
- Servo electric – interpolated motion
This webinar on demand is ideal for OEM design engineers looking to develop modern, energy-efficient, cost-effective machines using the latest technologies.
