New Products & Developments

SRP High Tech Planetary Reducer
SRP reducers are designed to be an integrated machine sub-assembly consisting of a minimum backlash, hardened and ground REDEX planetary gear train, high capacity tapered roller bearing supported ISO 9409 output flange and input flanges allowing universal servo-motor mounting. A high quality spiral bevel gear train is available as an option for right angle requirements. SRP is the ultimate high-tech servo reducer providing the superior torsional and radial stiffness, minimum backlash and excellent torque density required for precision motion control applications. Available in 5 sizes, with optional output pinions for transmitting torques up to 4000 lb.ft.

Preloaded Rack & Pinion Drive Systems
For axis drive applications requiring high accuracy positioning on CNC machine tools, these systems effectively eliminates the backlash between the rack & pinion by using two pinions – one to drive the axis and one to preload the axis to eliminate the backlash.  Eliminating the system backlash preserves accurate axis positioning during the transition period between acceleration/steady state and deceleration, when the rack & pinion flank contact and load reverses direction. 

• DualDRIVE (Mechanical Preload)
• TwinDRIVE (Electrical Preload)

Servo-Worm Reducers
This line of servo-worm reducers was specifically developed for use with the latest servo motor technology in applications that demand precise positioning and repeatability. These applications often occur in the Material Handling, Automation, CNC Machine Tool & Robotics industries.

These reducers are available in six sizes, with ratios from 2 to 24:1 and output torque capacities to 4,400 lb.ft. The units provide an angular backlash of less than 6 arc minutes and have the advantage of "in the field" adjustable backlash. The worm and wheel gear designs are optimized for minimum backlash.

Modular Rack and Pinion System
This system consists of a standard range of straight, circumferential pitch, and helical racks and pinions. The modular design permits rack lengths from 0.5 meters to 2 meters to be linked end-to-end achieving any desired travel length from standard components. Rack & pinions are available with different materials, heat treatments and quality levels to ensure the correct balance of power, precision and price to meet application requirements.

The standard range is available in modules, M, 1.0 to 10.0 (Diametral pitch, P 25.4 to 2.54) with lengths up to 2 meters allowing loads from 1 lb. to 100,000 lbs. to be moved at speeds from 0 to 1000 ft.min (5 M/s). Rack lengths up to 4 meters (2 meters with ground teeth) and modules up to 20 are available on request.

New DGT 300
The latest generation Merobel digital controller has been updated in a small, smart package that makes tension control as easy as child's play. DGT 300 includes all of the user friendly advantages of the DGT 2000 in a compact package that also includes the power supply to directly control EMP brakes and clutches. A new feature is an analog DC output -10/+10V DC to control drives.

Automatic Registration Control
The Amadeus digital registration controller combined with Andantex differential phase shifters automatically corrects registration errors each cycle. Windows based software is used to provide a user friendly operator interface. We provide the complete package including the sensors, drive and motor as well as total engineering support.
