PRAB promotes testing programs for scrap processing, fluid recycling decisions
According to the company, testing metal chips, turnings, swarf, coolants and process fluids under application-specific conditions can provide empirical data to guide equipment selection, scrap value improvement, volume-handling capacity and projected return on investment. PRAB says this approach can help manufacturers address rising disposal costs and environmental requirements, and recover more value from waste streams.
GPT gearhead family
The GPT gearhead family from Faulhaber can be flexibly combined with various motors from the standard range, such as motors from the flat BXT brushless family or the brushless DC drives from the microdrive experts. During development, they were specifically designed to work with the DC drives of the GXR/SXR gearhead family, which allows for perfectly matched combinations of encoders, drives and gearheads.
