BXR Model Brakes for Industrial Automation Equipment
Power transmission screws, such as ball screws and lead screws, within industrial automation equipment, convert rotary motion to linear motion. However, when a load is applied axially to the nut, the opposite occurs, and linear motion is converted to rotary motion, causing an unwanted side effect called back driving.Miki Pulley’s BXR Model Brakes prevent back driving by preventing the conversion of linear motion to rotary motion. The BXR’s slim build allows it to be installed in compact machines, delivering unparalleled quality and reliability.
Step-Flex Couplings for Ball Screw Assemblies
Ball screws in factory automation equipment display high resonance, resulting in higher decibel outputs. Miki Pulley’s Step-Flex Shaft Couplings are designed to combat this problem and eliminate resonance within stepper motor ball screw assemblies.The Step-Flex Coupling is manufactured from a two-part elastomer element combination that dampens vibration caused by the actuator carrier struggling to find its home position. The Step-Flex Coupling accomplishes this by making minor adjustments in rapid sequence.
