A Hexapod is a parallel kinematic motion device that provides six degrees of freedom: X, Y, Z, pitch, roll, and yaw. Hexapods are well known as effective solutions to complex motion applications that demand high load capacity and accuracy in up to six independent axes. Yet, they still have the image of being complex and highly priced. Now, Newport is the first company to introduce a Hexapod that is...

A short explanation about the new website Thomas Regout has a new website. Since 1 June 2008, the department of Telescopic slides became a separate entity, named Thomas Regout International BV. The need for a separate, updated and restyled website grew. Today, the new website is online and fully functioning.
To make the use of this website as accessible as possible, we drew up the following gu...
For the second year in a row, Thomas Regout kept its title as one of Netherlands’ best managed companies. The award “50 best managed companies” is granted by Deloitte. The strategy and management of the companies are the primary focus during this competition. But the financial results are taken into consideration as well.
During the competition we presented our vision on multiple management...
Ingenia-CAT has developed an antenna positioning system based on two Mercury digital servo drive controllers for the European Space Agency (ESA).
The antennas were steerable in azimuth by brushless permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) controlled through Mercury servo drives.
The onboard computer interfaced with servo drives via RS232.
The system allowed for two independent rotational m...
HepcoMotion® has an exceptionally wide range of products to cater for every linear motion need. That presents any website designer with a challenge. It is no easy task creating a framework that is both clean and easy to navigate whilst accommodating comprehensive information on so many products. Nevertheless, that is exactly what has been achieved in the new HepcoMotion® website.
The site has...
OWIS® now offers most of its opto-mechanical components and manual stages in a nonmagnetic version as standard.
Exclusively materials with a permeability of μr ≤ 1.01 are used. Thus, there are no timewasting corrections of the field like for example the magnetic field resonance. Light beams can be guided to an experiment or important components can be positioned to the right place wit...

The life of a bearing, within linear systems, can be seriously compromised in a harsh, washdown environment due to the ingress of corrosive fluids and loss of lubrication and this is precisely the reason why DualVee® Washdown Wheels have been developed. Available from HepcoMotion® these wheels actively repel liquid making them ideally suited for food and beverage applications as well as any high s...
SRB series bearings consist of a needle roller radial bearing with solid outer ring and an extended inner ring. The side surfaces of the outer ring act as tracks for the two axial cages.The two axial cages are centered on the inner ring.
Thanks to this design it is possible to realize a precision journal, having little overall dimen sions and high stiffness.
All SRB bearing designs have been ...
