Motion Control – Deep Groove Stainless/Ceramic Hybrid Si3N4 Silicon Nitride Radial Ball Bearings for High Loads Are FDA/USDA/3A-Dairy Compliant!

Motion Control – Hybrid Si3N4 Silicon Nitride Radial Ball Bearings

Deep Groove Hybrid Radial Ball Bearings featuring Si3N4 Silicon Nitride Ceramic balls from LM76 complement their broad range of linear bearings that are FDA/USDA/3A Dairy compliant. These Deep Groove Stainless/Ceramic Hybrid Si3N4 Silicon Nitride Radial Ball Bearings are ideal for the extreme environments experienced in the food, drug, and dairy industries. Capable of high speeds, high radial and axial loads, 24/7 duty cycles, and extreme sanitizing procedures such as high pressure washdown, and caustic foaming agents.

The advantages of Stainless/Ceramic Hybrid Si3N4 Silicon Nitride Ball Bearings are longer life because of lower friction and vibration, lower thermal expansion and heat transmission, therefore, catastrophic failure is all but eliminated. Balls made from Si3N4 Silicon Nitride are smoother than steel balls resulting in lower friction removing the chance of micro-welding or smearing resistance between mating surfaces, and as they will not deform under pressure higher loads are possible with no risk of spalling, and they have an electrical resistivity of 10^14. These deep groove radial bearings are ideal for use in: Food, dairy, and pharmaceutical processing, deep space, under water, assembly and sorting applications, high speed spindles, cleanrooms, motors, and pumps.

Heat and corrosion are two factors that lead to bearing failures. Ceramic Hybrid Si3N4 Silicon Nitride Balls are inert, low thermal and electrical conductors and do not contribute to cross corrosion between bearing components and are unaffected by corrosive agents such as acids and salts. Longer life, higher speeds and loads equals greater through put and lower operating costs.

Deep Groove Stainless/Ceramic Hybrid Si3N4 Silicon Nitride Ball Bearings are available with Nitrile or PTFE shields, with Stainless or Chrome Steel races and with IDs of 3mm to 120 mm.

Motion Control – More Advantages With Temposonics R-Series V Profinet

Motion Control – Linear Sensors

Motion Control – Temposonics, the industry leader in magnetostrictive linear sensor technology, has announced a new generation of sensors focused on Industry 4.0, which features advanced machine monitoring and predictive maintenance capabilities to enhance industrial productivity.

The R-Series V PROFINET now transmits additional sensor status information, such as internal temperature, total operating hours, and distance traveled by magnets, directly to the controller via the PROFINET protocol. This allows for improved predictive maintenance and machine condition monitoring.

Updates include the encoder profile version V4.2, making the R-Series V PROFINET the first linear position sensor certified for this version. The MTS profile and corresponding description file have also been certified by PNO. The Temposonics profile enables easy parameter setting and simultaneous monitoring of switching points with position and velocity output, synchronized with the controller’s clock.

Available in rod- and profile-style, the R-Series V transducers have a 37% smaller housing, allowing for more compact application designs. They are more robust and reliable, with an extended operating temperature range of -40° to +85°C, increased shock resistance to 150 g, and vibration resistance to 30 g. The larger voltage supply range facilitates integration into harsher environments while maintaining precise measurements up to 0.5 µm.

Backward compatible with previous generations, the R-Series V combines proven performance and quality with new, intelligent features, delivering familiar reliability with enhanced functionality.

Motion Control – Rotational Voice Coil Stage quickly and repeatably steers an optical beam with a diameter of up to 25 millimeters over 90° with 25 microradians of resolution!

Motion Control – Rotational Voice Coil Stage

Quickly and repeatably steer an optical beam with a diameter of up to 25 millimeters over 90° with 25 microradians of resolution!

RVC-9025 Rotational Voice Coil Stage: Up to 25mm wide mirror; Controllable positioning over +/-45 degree optical; 5 arcsec (25 microradians) optical position repeatability; 1 degree optical step-and-settle in less than 5ms; Fully integrated servo controller; USB 2.0 and auxiliary user electrical interfaces; X 58 x 28 x 21 millimeters, 30 grams

Forestville, CA – The RVC-9025 Rotational Voice Coil Stage provides a means to quickly and accurately set an angular position. The frequency is factory adjusted to customer specifications during the manufacturing process. Amplitude of the resonating mirror can be adjusted through either an analog input voltage or the USB interface.

An optional high-resolution position feedback sensor can be monitored by an analog output signal on the User Connector.

The RS-25 Resonant Scanner can also be configured with a high-resolution 16-bit Analog to Digital Converter to quickly sample and report the mirror position at any moment if the position sensor is included.

The RVC-9025 Rotational Voice Coil Stage provides a means to quickly and repeatably steer an optical beam with a diameter of up to 25 millimeters over 90° with 25 microradians of resolution. The RS-25 Resonant Scanner is designed and optimized for applications that typically require a means to scan an optical beam. Using various patent pending features the RS-25 Resonant Scanner can run 24/7 forever without compromise. At the heart of this product is a pair of carefully designed flexures that mimic the spring in a classical spring-mass harmonic motion system. The mirror or other load acts as the mass and together a natural resonating frequency is borne that provides unparalleled performance and reliability. A small motor is carefully coupled to the system to makeup for small system losses that would otherwise dampen the oscillation.

The Mirror: The mirror is an integral part of the RVC-9025 and is usually specified at time of order. The mirror and its associated inertia will largely predict the overall step and settle time of the actuator. With that in mind the user should careful consider parameters surrounding the mirror including its shape and flatness. The mirror should be no wider than absolutely necessary and sufficiently long to accommodate the beam elongation as a consequence of the tilting process. Mirror flatness will largely dictate its thickness and overall inertia. In special cases, mirror thickness and its affects on inertia can be managed using costlier materials such as beryllium that have a higher specific stiffness. As the mirror thickness grows, its front surface will proportionally move further off the rotational axis which in some cases can be undesirable. Other parameters including coating and scratch/dig need to be included to fully describe the mirror. While a mirror is probably the most common payload other customer supplied or specified loads can be used such as gratings.

Position Sensor: The RVC-9025 is able to position its mirror with a resolution of 25 micro-radians in a large part because of the high-resolution sensor it uses. The analog nature of its non-contact sensor also makes it noise limited by adjusting its bandwidth. Careful control and optimization of the sensor signal permits the servo to operate at a higher bandwidth and thereby having a higher stiffness and exceptionally low positioning wander or hysteresis.

Voice Coil Motor: The RVC-9025 includes a high efficiency voice coil motor–sometimes referred to as a single phase DC motor. The motor coil is directly coupled to the mirror support beam and position sensor. That tight and rigid coupling of the load, actuator and sensor assures exceptional position repeatability and step-and-settle times. The high efficiency of the motor coil yields a small and light-weight coil that adds little of the overall motion inertia.

Integrated Electronics: The RVC-9025 includes a highly miniaturized servo amplifier and controller. The mirror position can be controlled through either the USB and its 16-bit DAC or an analog input signal. At the same time mirror position can be monitored from and analog output or the USB and an optional 16-bit ADC. The auxiliary input header also provides a means to enable the amplifier and monitor it for faults. Thereby supporting a configuration for a deeply embedded and autonomous device.
