IAI America's Derrick Ellerman discusses the Green Automation aspect of factory automation that is becoming increasingly an important part in choosing a complete motion control system. The electro-mechanical ROBO Cylinder is energy efficient, which dramatically reduces running costs and offers complete motion control solutions that have many advantages over pneumatic systems. Some other advantages offered by ROBO Cylinders are: - Multiple positioning - Zone output - Push and hold - Acceleration and deceleration control - Incremental moves - On the fly speed changes - Ability to stop at any point of stroke For more information or to contact an IAI sales representative for a demonstration, please go to: IAI America, Inc.
