For both process and discrete motion control applications of actuators, many of the terminologies uttered and the base technologies utilized are similar. The difference comes with the application and evolution of these base technologies.

After 24 years, Parker's popular 6K has been discontinued. It was the follow-up to Parker's successful 6000 Series controllers which together spanned over 35 years of motion control history!

Specially designed for corrosive chemical liquids, TTK's FG-AC sensing cable detects and precisely locates acid, corrosive chemicals as well as water leaks at any point along its length.

There seems to be this constant game of tug-of-war between Information Technology (IT) and Operation Technology (OT) personnel in industrial settings. In general, there are three misconceptions that OT personnel have about the IT department.

Evaluating the annual operating costs for different types of actuators provides a comprehensive picture of the Total Cost of Ownership. See how Kyntronics SMART Electro-Hydraulic Actuators (SHA) compared to traditional hydraulic power units (HPUs) with hydraulic cylinders.

Economy Solutions from Mitsubishi Electric provides a low-cost, reliable, powerful, and easy-to-configure bundle of components allowing OEMs and system integrators to integrate high-precision motion control quickly, effortlessly, and affordably into their applications.

IAI's new IFA High-Speed Belt Driven Actuator is ideal for long-distance transport between processes and can move up to 40kg in 3000mm/seconds.

This 3-tier network monitoring signal tower facilitates communication between a wider range of devices within your network, featuring cloud compatibility, and email alerts, and supports multiple protocols.

TTK's hydrocarbon and acids leak detection systems at a university lab provides the ultimate protection from dangerous leaks.

Large ELECYLINDER® Slider type with a longer stroke operates at higher speeds.

TTK Liquid Leak Detection Systems recently announced that TTK's digital liquid leak detection monitoring panel FG-NET is now the first compliant digital leak detection system with the Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) address.

These are the four most important questions to ask when selecting either a servo or stepper motor for your application: speed, torque, inertia and power.

What is the difference between a direct drive and worm-gear driven rotary stage?  Which is better?

Don't let maintenance overwhelm your water leak detection system! Use patented dust-resistant water leak sensing cables from TTK Liquid Leak Detection.

Linear motor actuators are great…but we hesitate before using them in vertical applications.  We discuss why and what some solutions are.

PLCs have been doing a lot of this work for decades.  However, there are some newer functionalities in our PLCs that make this marketing concept easier to implement.  Learn more about "3 Methods for Sharing Data from an IIoT PLC" to understand these functionalities.

Kyntronics SMART Hydraulic Actuators combine the best features of hydraulic power with the precision of servo control (used in ball screw & roller screw electro-mechanical actuators), without the inherent disadvantages of those approaches.

For the past 30 years, Inventek has utilized the expertise from the engineers at Valin to better understand and master the technology it needs to best serve its customer base.

Have you found an actuator that you like that you want but it just does not quite have everything that you need?  Maybe you wish you could tweak it just a little bit?

This video is going to show the details of using the servo press in the first of the position press modes which is “Speed Control-Keeping Position”.

Total Cost of Ownership means looking beyond the material cost of the product and understanding the larger, surrounding value chain.  Learn how Watlow's PM controllers minimize downtime and the total cost of ownership.

This video is going to explain the five program steps in the IAI Servo Press programming cycle.
