Machine components such as bearings, encoders, and drive mechanisms are engineered and assembled directly on the granite base and bridge structures in an Integrated Granite Motion (IGM) system. Therefore, IGM systems are distinct from traditional stage-on-granite systems where discrete positioning stages and components are used in the system design. Aerotech IGM systems are custom-engineered to fit the unique and specific needs of your application or process.

A line of tube expander kits that feature rolling motors with adjustable torque to create a uniform and tight mechanical seal for repairing boilers has been introduced for sale or rent from Esco Tool. Esco MILLHOG Rolling Motor and Tube Expander Kits feature a rolling motor with adjustable torque control to prevent over and under expansion; assuring a tight and uniform bond between the tube and OD and the tube sheet.

HEIDENHAIN redesigned its LIF 400 family of encoders with several improvements. The updates to this exposed linear kit style encoder originated from listening to customer requests over the years, and now comes with much improved contamination resistance, among other enhancements. The new LIF 400 series has a position noise value of 0.6 nanometers at 1MHz and a low interpolation error down to +/-12 nanometers. Industries that could take advantage of this encoder are semiconductor, metrology, micromachining, and medical.
