UAVOS releases Xservo-Series Actuators – GPS World : GPS World
UAVOS has debuted its Xservo-Series Hollow Shaft Servo Actuators, which feature embedded CANopen/EtherCAT servo drive.
The actuators include a built-in motion controller, which allows users to skip the complex stage of mechanical and electrical integration of a passive servo actuator with an external servo drive controller, the company said.
In addition, the actuators, which are encased with rugged, IP65-rated anodized aluminum alloy casing, boast a hollow shaft that makes it easy to pass power supply cables, shafts or laser beams directly through the servo actuator.
According to UAVOS, the actuators are capable of nx360 degree proportional rotation and are ideal for a wide range of rotary applications within UAVs and robotic platforms. New actuators are immune to shock and vibration and designed for use in harsh conditions, the company added.
“This is just the beginning of a series of product releases we are planning for this year, and our customers can be excited about what is about to come,” said Aliaksei Stratsilatau, CEO and lead developer at UAVOS. “Our incentive is to meet most of our customers’ requirements, and this is why we constantly invest in our R&D capacities and keep an ear close to the market.”
UAVOS Xservo-Series are designed to be used in industrial applications where high accuracy, high torque and low weight are essential.
