The sinking of a Venetian building, in the most recent James Bond film 'Casino Royale', was achieved through Moog's smooth and safe operation of a huge rig that had to sink one of three motion bases, the largest weighing 80,000 kg, into the large water tanks at Pinewood Studios, England.
One of the biggest ocean-basin laboratories in the world, Marintek, Inc. chose Moog as partner to upgrade its Ocean Basin with new technology; providing enhanced capabilities, such as larger waves over a wider area and with more directional flexibility.
Higher performance machines can mean a real advantage in productivity and profitability for the plastics and metal forming industries. The Moog Modular Multi-Axis Programmable Motion Control Servodrive — also known as MSD — answers the call for a new generation of servodrives that provides the highest levels of dynamic response, smooth performance and application versatility.
New Direct Drive Digital Interface Valves (DIV), tuned for high dynamic performance, have no operational limits, meaning that within the pressure rating of the valve it can be operated even at the highest pressure drops in 4-way, 3-way or 2-way modes. In addition, the digital on-board electronics account for superior functionality and robustness in multiple applications.
