  • Case Studies [Precision Positioning Switches] : Correct the Deviation of Printing Drums in Micron Increments
    Metrol's "Precision Positioning Switches" are widely adopted in various applications in order to control positions in micron increments. One of them is "positioning of the printing drums of rotary press". Significant improvements in printing quality can be realized by correcting a slight deviation
  • Economical Retrofits Outshine Servo Systems
    machine. The Candy Harmonic Differential provides an easy registration control retrofit for multi-cylinder rotary presses or central impression presses without the difficulties and cost associated with electronic systems.
  • A Winery Down Under
    Award winning winemaker Teusner Wines recently invested in two Kaeser SK 25 rotary screw compressors, which are responsible for delivering a reliable and energy efficient supply of compressed air to the pneumatic - grape crushing - presses at their new purpose built winery in the Barossa Valley
  • Common Shapes in Laser Cutting
    different shapes in metal tube or pipe that would be difficult if not impossible with a traditional vertical mill or drill press, due to the radius of the rotary cutting tool.
  • How Does an Optical Encoder Work?
    the electronic signals are amplified and converted, they are then available for the evaluation of the position. In some applications the encoder shaft makes one revolution for one complete cycle of machine operation (angular rotation of a crankshaft in a punch press or rotary indexing table). Absolute
  • Load Cell Application - Closed Loop Feedback
    The diagram below is a good example of closed loop feed back operation. It shows how donut / thru hole load cells and pancake load cells can be used in insertion / press applications for precision assembly during the manufacturing process. The donut / thru hole at the top monitors the required load
  • Piezo Motors: Principle of Operation for Engineers
    devices. Travel can be linear or rotary, depending on the coupling mechanism. Closed loop servo control can be provided with standard off-the-shelf servo controllers, or with the Nanomotion servo controller that offers full PID control at 20 kHz servo rate. Further, the motors can operate in actuation
