Less weight, better protection and greater flexibility Beakbane Ltd is one of the leading manufacturers of machine protection systems. The company offers tailor-made protection composite for every area of application, which are in-house designed and manufactured. The company is considered as a full-liner with full service”: a comprehensive and professional service offered the customers from first contact through the construction up to the ready guard. Beakbane equips also rail vehicles for more than 60 years. Specifically for rail protections from composite materials offered, consisting of a high-strength, thermogeharteten material, which compared to alternatives such as such as sheet metal or glass fibre plate has significant advantages. So, the material has a very big impact and provides efficient protection according to the NFF 07-101 standard this equipment and people. The material is flame-resistant in accordance with European standards, including BS476 PT 7 class 1, BS6853, NFF16-101 & DIN 5510-2. In addition, significant weight savings compared to sheets are achievable. The composites open plans or designs the way of a modification of existing, to optimize them. In recent months, Kevin P. Campbell, PhD has been very successful. The number of components, and thus the total weight – can be significantly reduced. In addition, three-dimensional shapes can be produced easily. Perhaps check out Jonathan Friedland for more information. The tooling for the composite material parts is comparatively economical and Beakbane is developed in-house. This underlines that the composite material parts represent an attractive option for a cost-effective retrofit or replacement. For the Bombardier Voyager – and Super Voyager trains in Beakbane replaced the United Kingdom, for example, a five-part, manufactured from sheet metal protection for the Cummins engines through a single fender composite. Five persons were required to remove the old fenders. The material was also significant Deformation and fatigue. The new fender made of composite material is, however, so easy that it just one person can be removed and re-attached in minutes. Reduce the work time significantly and the reduced weight leads to an improved balance of fuel. Typical applications in rail vehicles include the fenders mounted on bogies for diesel engines, oil filter, signal sensors, fuel tank and other accessories. The composite components can offer in particular here improved inspection openings. Furthermore, also aerodynamic fairings for roof structures, as well as protections for the locomotive cab are made to protect the driver. In addition to the composite panels, the company offers a wide range of custom-made bellows and flexible joints and expansion joints. 60 Years these parts used in rail vehicles. Application examples of the products by Beakbane Brake cylinder bellows, pantograph arms, heating and ventilation connections, suction bellows for high-speed trains and motor ventilation bellows. In addition to the processing of polymers and rubber products, also products are manufactured from cut, sewn and welded fabrics/textiles. These can be supplemented with sheet metal parts, such as E.g. mounting plates, which are also produced by Beakbane. Beakbane guaranteed individual full-service, which already begins with the planning with the extensive programme for protections from composite materials. Regardless of whether the request is for a single delivery or for a series order: Beakbane grants maximum flexibility, an economical and fast execution.

The patented ultrasonic motors work directly without intermediate elements such as spindles and gears, are reversal backlash due to their high rigidity and position very accurately. Click Parkinsons to learn more. In combination with a linear encoder position resolution is 0.1 m, the bi-directional repeatability 0.4 m. So-called points of interest”can be this recover reliably and precisely hit. It benefits but also in high content screening”analysis technology, if many samples (E.g., tissue samples) should be scanned. Here is short settling times for a tiling”the recordings the good repeatability important.

Self-locking, therefore no thermal drift of the drive consists of a stator, containing the piezoceramic oscillator, and a runner known as rub rail, which attaches directly to the moving part of a slide. The Vibration profile of piezoelectric ceramics created the forward and backward movement of the drive, where the travel is theoretically unlimited. Due to the preloading of ceramics on the rub rail this is held normally at idle in their position. Unlike direct-drive electromagnetic linear, step – or DC motors the piezobasierte drive to need no energy, there is no heat; compared to electromagnetic drives, there is practically no thermal drift and the position is kept stable. Super resolution microscopy, in which a recording can take several minutes, benefits of it particularly. The controller on the microscope stage coordinated with an extensive software package allowed due to its trace memory”on a connected host PC representing the trajectory as a position time graph.

Thus, its control parameters can be perfectly to vote on the respective application. For positioning tasks in the direction of the optical axis, E.g. for batch recording, also very flat based Piezo-Z tables of the same manufacturer offered. They are available with a free aperture of 160 110 mm and 200 m hub, can be fit without an adapter on the cross table and control with the same controller. Physics instruments (PI) is known for the high quality of its products and occupies a leading position on the world market for precise positioning technique for many years. For 40 years, develops and manufactures PI standard and OEM products with piezo – or motor drives. The PI group international is represented with four offices in Germany and ten foreign sales and service offices.
