January 2012


Greetings!


Starting out in 2012, we turn the spotlight on PHD's Series STP Slides. These high capacity, high precision actuators provide just the capability required for precise positioning applications.

 

Also this month, we review components for an industry that's taking off once again. PHD offers a wide range of actuators targeted for the Wheel and Rim Manufacturing segment.

  

To stimulate your own creativity, PHD provides STP Animations that just might give you some ideas on improving some of your own automation processes.

 

To your continued automation success,

Series STP Slides.....  Precise , Compact, High Loads !

 

PHD's Series STP Slides were designed to provide smooth, precise movement with high accuracy. With dual piston bores, the Series STP Slides provide high power in minimum space with twice the thrust of a single bore cylinder. 

 

Series STP Slides

Standard internal and external shock pads eliminate metal-to-metal contact reducing noise and end-of-travel impact forces. Optional travel adjustment available for precise slide positioning.

 

Units are available in five sizes to fit a wide range of applications. Series STP Slides provide precision and modularity at a very low cost. Check out our online product specifications for more detailed information.

STP Slides will stand up to your most demanding precision applications.

Working with Wheels or Rims ? ... See PHD Solutions !

 

Business is slowly but surely picking up. Coming back as well are automotive markets, and the Wheel and Rim Segment is no exception. If your responsibilities include foundry processes, machining, testing, inspection, or material handling of wheels or rims then PHD has a selection of robust actuators for you.

PHD Wheel & Rim Handling ComponentsSeries GRR Grippers, SFP Slides, and RID Rotary Actuators are just a few of the components included in this informative brochure.

In a finishing or machining cell, Series GRR Grippers are used for loading, unloading, and centering. In an inspection cell, Series SFP Slides with their smooth precision motion are utilized to lower inspection instruments to the rim. In a machine loading application, Series RID Rotary Actuators with their high radial bearing capacity are employed to invert the rims.

Application Solutions are PHD's specialty and the wheel and rim industry has plenty of opportunity. Take a look today at PHD's Rim Handling Components for solutions to your automation applications!
