New! Motion Control Information Added 5-14-2012
MOTION CONTROL COMPONENTS IN THE SPOTLIGHT!
New Featured Motion Control Components:
Scientific Technologies, Inc. (STI), introduces the new "Gotcha Stick" Safe Distance Scale. This three-segment safe distance stick accurately tests the allowable barrier opening size based on the distance from the point of operation. It features English measurements on one side, and Metric measurements on the other. Although not officially adopted by OSHA, the "Gotcha Stick" is based on data from "A Review of Machine-Guarding Recommendations," by Donald R. Vaillancourt and Stover H. Snook of the Liberty Mutual Research Center for Health & Safety. This data redefines the dimensions of the human arm for the purposes of machine guarding. The resulting new stick has been modified to include openings of less than 1/4 inch over the first 1/2 inch distance. Click here for more information. 
Motion Control - DC Motor Sizing Made Easy! A Practical 1/2 Day Seminar presented by Dr. Urs Kafader, maxon motor ag
St. Laurent, PQ & Mississagua, ON —-- Electromate and maxon motor ag are presenting a half-day motion control seminar that will provide attendees with the practical information they need to successfully select the right DC motor – be it brushed or brushless – for their application. They will learn about the interpretation of motor data and how they can use this information for motor sizing. Whether they need high speed and dynamics or just high torque, this seminar will teach them to size a drive with just the right power reserves avoiding costly oversized motors.

Motion Control - Select AMC’s DZRALTE Amplifiers for Embedded Applications!
Greenville, DE —-- Servo2Go.com announces the release of the DZRALTE Series of High Performance Digital Servo Drives from Advanced Motion Controls of Camarillo, CA, which are engineered to conquer the most demanding industrial applications! The DZRALTE Series are digital servo drives that control brushed & brushless servomotors in a compact form factor which make them ideal for embedded applications. These fully digital drives operate in torque, velocity, or position mode and employ Space Vector Modulation (SVM) which results in higher bus voltage utilization and reduced heat dissipation compared to traditional PWM drives. The command source can be generated internally or can be supplied externally. In addition to motor control, these drives feature dedicated and programmable digital and analog inputs and outputs to enhance interfacing with external controllers and devices.

Entertainment Engineering An Online Magazine for Engineers!
Entertainment Engineering is a magazine that covers motion control, hydraulics, pneumatics, electronics, software, and electromechanical technologies that are used in many types of entertainment devices and events such as movies, concerts, theme and amusement parks, electronic games, and racing and sporting events. Co-founder Terry Persun explains why it was important to maintain the look and feel of a magazine at www.entertainmentengineering.com . "We felt that many web sites, especially the web sites of engineering magazines, are confusing to readers who may not easily identify which portions are editorial and which portions are purchased advertisements that are not subject to the scrutiny and integrity of editors," says Persun. "That confusion is absent on our web site." For More New Components Click here
