Uhing rolling ring linear drives with the H-lever option provide accurate slow down and ramp-up to linear speed independently of drive motor speed. For applications requiring deceleration prior to reversal followed by gradual acceleration, the lever is an inexpensive alternative to clutches, cams, and gears. Instead of adjusting linearly with electronic controls and programming, it is done mechanically.

Ultipleat SRT filters have an innovative pack design that maximizes the amount of filter media in an element. Combined with stress-resistant media technology, antistatic construction, coreless/cageless makeup and an into-out-of flow path, the result is a smaller, lighter weight filter element that does not sacrifice filter service life. The filter design provides more consistent particulate removal.

CMM is a permanently installed, continuous condition monitoring system, consisting of transducers, converters, power supply modules, and combined display and control modules. The transducers measure bearing condition, vibration severity, and temperature. The converters transform shock pulse and vibration transducer signals into 4–20 mA analog signals. The display modules have two input channels.
