Breakthrough claim for short-stroke actuator
NSF Controls is set to launch an exciting breakthrough in short-stroke actuator technology with the development of a servo linear positioner (SLP) system.
The new control terminal is fully compatible with standard CNC, robotic or PLC controls via a binary interface or, in the case of the HBG 20-DP model, via a Profibus-DP connection.
All versions are equipped with six function keys, including direction and speed controls, plus the option for three soft keys which can be assigned machine-specific functions.
Every variant also has a three-stage consent or "confirmation" key, plus an emergency off switch.
Customer-specific versions are available and additional options include a hand-wheel to initiate axial movements, an axis-selector switch for up to five axial positions and rapid motion switch which increases the process speed.
Designed for optimum temperature performance from 0 to 70C, the HBG 20 has a 3.5m connector cable and a magnetic-case fixing system for maximum convenience and usability in the workplace. Request a free brochure from NSF Controls ...
