Aries Engineering Co. Inc. has introduced the HyperCyl-ema, a robust, servo-driven linear actuator for precision assembly applications or applications not suited for the company’s standard HyperCyl or IntelliCyl products.
Available in both roller screw and ballscrew configurations, the HyperCyl-ema can handle a wide range of press applications in the automotive, aerospace, defense, appliance, medical and electronics industries. The ballscrew model can produce 2,000 to 20,000 pounds of force. The roller screw model can produce 2,000 to 50,000 pounds of force.
Positional repeatability is 0.0025 millimeter, and maximum ram speed is 500 millimeters per second. Maximum stroke length is 8 inches. The press is made in the USA.
When paired with the optional HyperView-Press signature analysis controller, the press provides precise force vs. distance monitoring, trending, data logging, Cpk and data analysis capability. This improves quality and reduces costs.
The HyperView-Press provides advanced algorithms to handle the simplest as well as the most complex press monitoring requirements. Press monitoring “best practices” are embedded into the system based on decades of experience with press applications. During setup, the HyperView-Press gathers information from the wizard and automatically makes modifications to the software to fit the specific application requirements.
The HyperCyl-ema is available as an actuator only; an actuator with a drive; or an actuator with a drive and the HyperView-Press package. Complete turnkey press stations are also available.
The press comes standard with an Emerson Unimotor, but the machine can be customized to accommodate other servomotors. The press comes equipped with a nonrotating ram; an internal, temperature-compensated load cell; and over-travel limit switches.
The body of the actuator consists of a high-strength, heavy-walled steel tube with and tie-rods for rigidity, stability and protection. A wiper seal at the end of unit protects internal components from contamination. The steel ram has a polished, hard-chrome surface to resist corrosion and mechanical damage. Proximity sensors detect the end of the stroke.
