Screw Jacks are devices whose function is to convert circular motion into linear motion. This is a mechanism that can be used to move weights with a minimal applied force, by means of a spindle driving the carried weight. Screw jacks' different application approaches envolve carrying weight by pushing or pulling, lifting or lowering, locking or unlocking, sliding, rolling, tilting and tensioning. Whatever type of screw jack is added, the carrying capacities can be used in applications for small weights from just a few kilograms up to hundreds of tons. ...

The demand for efficiency and flexibility in automated storage systems is constant, driven by the increasing complexity and dynamics in resource and space optimization. In this context, REIMAN was driven to develop an aluminium profile structure designed for an automated storage system. ...

The linear actuator is an electric device that allows movement in one direction, for both ways, through a linear system. A linear actuator’s versatility allows it for pushing and pulling, going up or coming down, inclining, sliding and adjusting the applied object attached to it. A linear actuator grants a lifelong run, with little to no maintenance necessity, and gives the operator full control over how the actuator is used. In comparison to hydraulic or pneumatic systems, a linear actuator is easier to install in an application, as well as less expensive. ...

Additive manufacturing, popularly known as 3D printing, plays a crucial role in optimizing industrial processes, not only due to its ability to produce complex and independent parts but also because it significantly reduces the waste of raw materials compared to traditional methods like subtractive manufacturing. ...

Embraced in the generic portfolio of Operating & Machine Parts, Operating Elements are very important, allowing the manual (...) in many industry sectors. Due to its fact, it's necessary to ensure the product in hand to be perfectly adapted and ergonomic for manual use. Elesa+Ganter's handwheels and crank handles are well thought, designed and produced to correspond to its necessitites of any workplace, suiting the material to its composition and the way they must be driven. These are the types of handwheels and crank handles applied in the industry. ...

A rack is essentially a toothed bar that pairs with a gear wheel. Together, they convert rotational into linear movement, or vice versa. These features make the rack/pinion assembly essential in transmission systems. There are two types of rack/pinion sets, straight-toothed and helical-toothed. ...

The Wolweiss System is an extruded aluminum profile system with an anodized surface finish, making it one of the most flexible and economical ways of designing structures for solar panels. The anodized coating makes the profile durable, as well as resistant to weather and corrosion. ...

Linear guides are widely used in various industrial applications due to their high precision, reliability, durability, high load capacity, among others. Reiman offers a variety of options to meet the specific needs of each application. In order to choose the ideal option, it is important to follow some steps. ...

It's common to see that 3D printed parts, once completed, reveal a type of texture based on the technology in which they were produced. Depending on the function, it is important that the part's surface has certain characteristics that eliminate the risk of compromising its functionality or that of the assembly it is part of. While various additive manufacturing technologies specialize in building a part with the accuracy and demands associated with quality requirements, surface treatment specializes in enhancing the part of prominent textures or retained waste, and RMN Additive offers the following surface treatment services for additive manufacturing parts. ...

In the food, medical and pharmaceutical industries, ensuring the safety of products and protecting both them and consumers is becoming increasingly important. Developing and maintaining qualified working environments constantly presents manufacturers and owners in these industries with significant challenges. To ensure safety in a production environment, all risks of contamination by microorganisms or dirt must be excluded. This means that all components, equipment and surfaces must be designed accordingly. ...
