MC igus Linear Slide Actuators and XYZ Gantries from Automation Direct 1 400x275

September 22, 2022

 

AutomationDirect has added linear slide actuators from igus. These lead screw-driven and belt-driven linear slide actuators can be used as single-axis slides or can provide an economical means of creating high-performance XY or XYZ gantry systems.

The SAW series lead-screw driven actuators offer a low-cost linear motion solution with travel distances from 50 to 750 mm, widths of 74 and 108 mm, and a 25mm pitch screw. ZLW series belt-drive actuators provide a longer travel axis with lengths from 200 to 1000 mm and widths of 74 and 90 mm, driven by a 70mm pitch belt.

Drive couplings and mounting accessories are available to fit small NEMA framed motors and AutomationDirect’s SureServo motors.

The new igus linear slide actuators start at $355.00. All actuator components carry a one-year warranty.

MC Digi Key K78 Series Non Isolated Switching Regulator 1 400

K78 Series Non-Isolated DC/DC Switching Regulator from Mornsun

 

 

Mornsun’s K78 series is a high-efficiency switching regulator with the packages of SiP (system in package), SMD, or DFN, and the efficiency is up to 96%. They are designed as a pin-compatible replacement for LM78 linear regulators without any heatsink. K78 series offers excellent performance and advantages – such as high efficiency, wide input voltage range, and highly accurate output voltage. An automated production factory can guarantee quality and reliability at a low cost. Such a perfect solution makes designing a switching regulator circuit redundant. The regulated output K78-R4 series released has undergone a fundamental change in dimension and packaging which is manufactured via the chiplet SiP process, and the appearance of R4 has changed from simple and rough to refinement.
