‘Stepper Drive’
A Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Stealth.com releases mini PC from
Stealth Computer Corporation, which we summarised at the time by saying "Stealth.com has released a small form factor, or mini PC, designed specifically for in-vehicle/mobile/embedded applications. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Torque motors eliminate extruder vibration from
Parker Hannifin - Electromechanical and Drives Division: "The latest high-performance torque motors and variable speed drives from Parker Hannifin are playing an important role in a range of extruders manufactured by plastics machinery company, Ghioldi.".
In November 2008, we covered the news from Bonfiglioli UK Industrial Solutions
- take a look at Bevel helical gearboxes take to the bridge
which says: "Synchronised sets of Bonfiglioli industrial gearboxes are being used on Sydney's Harbour Bridge to drive two 60-tonne workmen's gantries. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Sensor-Technik UK, Universal controller for vehicle hydraulics,
as well as ABB drives recycling scheme from ABB Automation Tech (Drives and Motors),
and Heason has ZF Industrial planetary gearboxes from Heason Technology.
