When every micron matters and every millisecond counts, conventional linear motion systems often fall short. If you are chasing peak throughput, ultra-smooth motion, and zero mechanical backlash, it's time to look beyond belts and screws. That’s where the Parker XLM Series Linear Motor Stages come in.

There is still a sizeable gap between expectations from the end user perspective and the reality of what is possible tapping into the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Implementing the tools necessary is more than just flipping a switch.  There are specific challenges associated with this implementation; however, strategies have been developed to help bridge that gap.

Thanks to the EC ELECYLINDER® 3-position mode specification option, stops are possible not only at the forward and backward ends but also at intermediate positions. The cycle time can be shortened by stopping at intermediate positions.

This 6-axis precision pick and place stage system was engineered from the ground up and delivered in 10 weeks.

Ensure machine safety, security, and operational uptime with advanced network technology. 

Comparing and contrasting programmable logic controllers (PLCs), programmable automation controllers (PACs) and PC – based controllers has become a favorite pastime of the industry. However, this is a nuanced topic to say the least, and if the question isn’t positioned in a specific way, one may receive one answer from one source and a completely different answer from another.
