April 2010

Greetings!

This month, we take another look at PHD's Series RF Rotary Actuators. These devices were designed to be low profile, compact rotary components with a robust internal construction for applications requiring the high speed rotation of small parts and assemblies.
 
The Application Spotlight for April shines upon the Tire Industry. PHD offers several automation components for many of the operations that take place within this field. Rugged actuators for rugged needs.
 
In this month's issue, we introduce some new animations added to our Learn.PHDInc Web Site. Series SM Slides are featured. 
 

To your continued success!

Series RF Rotary Actuators....Low Profile, Yet Robust
 
Need High Speed Rotary Orientation?
 

PHD's Series RF Rotary Actuators feature a one-piece pinion shaft with a large diameter output hub for greater ease of user interface. Available in three bore sizes with a standard rotation of 180 degrees, these very low profile actuators create a significant amount of torque in a very compact package.

  PHD Series RF Rotary Actuators

With internal urethane shock pads as standard, their ability to absorb impact at both ends of rotation allows the user to rotate substantial loads at higher velocities than most any competitor's comparable actuator. Yet the integrated hard stop still provides zero backlash for precise positioning at both ends of rotation  

 

All three sizes are equipped as standard with angle adjustments that are infinitely adjustable from 0 to 180 degrees of rotation. Availability in both metric and imperial versions provides design flexibility for a truly world market.

 

Take a look at PHD's Series RF Rotary Actuators along with the rest of our fine rotary products for your next demanding rotary application!

Tire Industry Components
Rugged Design and Long Life from PHD!
 
Part of our answer to Industry Dedicated Solutions includes PHD components for the Tire Industry. If your business is tires, you need to check out our actuator lineup. From material mixing to component prep; from tire build through curing and final finishing, PHD has a complete line of actuators to help all along the way. 
 
PHD Tire Industry ComponentsConsider our NFPA Standard Cylinder Series HV for use on internal compound mixing machines. Or Series CV Cylinders with a Rodlok option for loading and unloading presses. Smooth and precise Series SFP Slides assist in tire build operations with their long travel, high load capacity, and extremely low deflection.
 
With their narrow width, rugged design, and long travel, Series GRR Grippers are the gripper of choice for pick and place applications.
 
This handy brochure describes many of the operations that you and your colleagues face each day in the Tire Manufacturing Industry. And if you don't see it, don't think we can't make it! Our Unlimited Unique Solutions group tackles challenges and provides products no one else can dare to match.
