How to choose Electric Drives
What matters when choosing: properties, comparison and typical applications.
Electric Compared to Pneumatic
Electric drives position by means of a motor and mechanics such as a toothed belt or spindle and allow freely programmable positions, controlled speed and defined force. Compared with purely pneumatic drives, they offer higher repeat accuracy and flexibility across several target positions. Axes and handling modules can be combined into multi-axis systems.
