Shaft Collars support high-speed converting and winding.
Installing without special tools, Easylock™ Shaft Collars provide non-slip holding of tools and reels on smooth, case hardened shafts. Clamping control wheel allows user to adjust holding force from 90–1,124 lb. To assure collars will not become jammed on shafts, positive release feature is activated when clamping control wheel is turned completely in counterclockwise direction....

Linear Drives offer shaft cleaning and lubricating option.
Uhing linear drives are available with combination shaft scraper/grease fitting option for automatic cleaning and lubrication of drive shaft. While drive is running, fitting removes excessive grease, dust, and dirt from shaft and simultaneously ensures adequate shaft lubrication. Debris, as it accumulates at either end of shaft, can be wiped away with a cloth. In most applications, shaft scrapers...

Timing Belt Drive has sag-resistant, one-piece design.
Offering smooth linear motion in positioning and indexing applications, AZ1040 features one-piece aluminum profile extrusion which serves as belt housing. T-slots and receiver grooves for load carriage guide bars are incorporated into the profile design, and load carriage measures 7.4 x 6.3 in. Depending on payload weight, max travel speed is 16.4 fps. Repeatability is rated at Ã-

Linear Positioning Drives offer adjustable pitch/side thrust.
Model RS linear drives feature adjustable axial thrust as well as pitch settings of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, or 0.5 times shaft diameter. Side thrust and linear pitch will not vary when other is adjusted, simplifying process of finding settings that will enhance smooth linear movement and overall optimum drive function. Units achieve linear speeds of up to 5 fps, over distances of up to 13 ft, with...

Linear Slide Load Carrier relieves radial forces.
Supported on its own end supports and guide rails, flexibly-coupled linear slide load carrier removes twisting and bending forces from Uhing drive and assembly. Design assures that overturning moments and other forces created by payload do not work against axial thrust provided by drive. Slide is available in models SLS and L2 for heavy duty loads that mount on top of drive, while L4 model mounts...

Shaft Collars lock in place when released.
Suited for machinery or static applications, U-Clip shaft collars hold reels and tools in place on hardened or non-hardened shafts. Quick release, one-piece units are hand installed and have holding force of 55-80 lb depending on U-Clip size. They are available in 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, and 22 mm sizes, and feature spring loaded release plate that permits slide on/off action.

Rolling Ring Drives offer grease fitting option.
Providing axial thrust up to 800 lb, Uhing Rolling Ring Drives with grease fitting option achieve speeds up to 13 fps over travel distances up to 16 ft. When drive is running, fittings facilitate automatic shaft lubrication while wipers clean shaft, preventing buildup of grease. Mounted adjacent to wipers on each end of drive, grease fitting assemblies contain felt rings which absorb and evenly...

Space Saving Linear Drive Design
March, 2006 The addition of an extra bearing in Amacoil/Uhing model RG3 linear drives doubles side thrust capacity without significantly increasing the length of the drive. For example, an RG3-30 drive provides 60 pounds of axial thrust and has a 150 mm (6 in.) long housing. The 4-bearing option (RG4-30) delivers 120 pounds of thrust, yet the housing is only is only 30 mm (0.5 in.) longer than...

Featuring plastic slide bearings, AZ-2000 timing belt drive offers travel speeds of up to 1.5 m/sec. Load carriage measures 150 x 100 mm and has pre-drilled and tapped payload mounting holes. Drive accepts downward payload forces up to 90 N and has repeatability of Ã-

Facilitating smooth reversal, Series RG offers option whereby end stop assemblies are fitted with V-shaped cams to decrease linear speed of drive prior to reversal without using electronic controls or reducing motor speed. After reversal, cams permit smooth ramp up of drive speed, eliminating possible whipping action of tools. Slowdown cam applications include applying coatings, slitting, spray...
