Positioning systems help trunking assembly
With demand for electrical trunking booming, Legrand has used a Toshiba robot and a parts indexing system based on Hoerbiger-Origa pneumatics to automate its production line
Due to an innovative end-cap design the NZK compact cylinders are typically 45 per cent shorter than standard cylinders, yet deliver the outstanding output force, rigid guidance and positional accuracy associated with Hoerbiger-Origa actuators.
Highly efficient end buffers are built into the end caps to provide for quiet, shock-free operation.
The larger diameter piston rod and bearings together ensure smooth travel and optimum side load capabilities.
The design of the actuator body is such that the overall dimensions are little more that the stroke, but without compromising rigidity in any direction nor the smoothness of the stroke motion.
To provide smooth running, even at slow speeds, and eliminate stick/slip at start up, the internal air seals are designed with small lip profiles.
These are also moulded in a highly wear resistant polymer to ensure long life expectancy.
Both single acting and double acting drive power options are available, as are a number of mounting options and accessories. Request a free brochure from Hoerbiger-Origa ...
