PROBLEM SOLVER SPOTLIGHT
Tolomatic electric screw actuators improve accuracy
A leading packaging equipment manufacturer recently faced the problem of how to compensate for inconsistent bag dimensions on its popular modular bag filling and sealing system. Since repeatability is critical to the filling and sealing operation, engineers sought a solution that would increase accuracy, flexibility and productivity for packagers. They found their solution in four electric screw linear actuators from Tolomatic that were modified to precisely position incoming empty bags. The bagging system now automatically compensates for variations in bag dimensions and eliminates manual setup when changing bag sizes. --- Tolomatic

HOT NEW PRODUCTS - Editor's Choice
Integrated Servo MotorActuator
HAMEL, MN: The new integrated-motor actuator (IMA) from Tolomatic, Inc., combines a servo motor with Tolomatic's proven rod-style actuator to provide a compact package. Compared to traditional rod-style actuators, the IMA's integrated design provides higher dynamic performance by eliminating the need for separate motors, couplers, motor mounts, gearing and belts. The result is reduced component costs, assembly time and failure points. "The IMA's compact footprint, combined with the energy savings and flexibility of control from an electric actuator, makes the IMA a powerful, viable alternative for replacing pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders," says Aaron Dietrich, electric product manager, Tolomatic. The high-force design of the IMA allows it to be used in a variety of applications such as pressing, clamping, valve control, spot welding and volumetric filling. The Tolomatic IMA provides high force (up to 2000 lbf) along with high speed (23 in./sec.) and positional accuracy (+/- 0.00984 in. or +/- 0.25 mm). The IMA can be ordered in any incremental stroke length from 6 to 18 inches. --- Tolomatic

INDUSTRY TRENDS
Manufacturers Becoming Optimistic About Economy
Prime Advantage has announced the findings of its fourth Prime Advantage Group Outlook (GO) Survey, revealing the top economic concerns of midsized industrial manufacturers for the remainder of 2009. The study results reflect a growing sense of optimism returning to the manufacturing sector, in terms of improved revenues, customer demand and hiring expectations. Among the highlights of the survey findings, 80 percent of respondents indicated that they expected revenue for the second half of 2009 to either stay the same or increase. This is a dramatic turnaround from the February GO Survey in which only 38 percent were predicting revenues to either stay the same as 2008 or increase. Also, just 31 percent said that capital spending would likely decrease from the first half of 2009, whereas the February GO Survey results found 66 percent of respondents indicating that capital spending would decrease from 2008 levels.
