‘Gearhead’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release OEMDynamics enhances linear belt drive from Animatics, which we summarised at the time by saying "OEMDynamics, a division of Animatics, has announced enhanced features on the HLD 60-H3 actuator. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Wittenstein gearhead suits space-restricted apps from Wittenstein (formerly alpha gear drives): "Wittenstein has developed the V-Drive+ Servo Worm Gearhead that meets requirements for resource-efficient servo applications and is predestined for applications where space is restricted. ".
 
In July 2009, we covered the news from Midwest Motion Products - take a look at DC gear motor accepts any 24VDC source which says: "Midwest Motion Products has announced the release of the model MMP-TM55-24V GP57-317 DC gear motor.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Parker Hannifin - Electromechanical and Drives Division, Parker actuators have standard gearhead options, as well as LG designs positioning system for I24 MX beamline from LG Motion, and Maxon motor provides more torque per millimetre from Maxon Motor UK.
