You asked for it. Moog developed the G4-1, a low voltage (300V) servomotor that comes with the standard options such as a brake, encoder/resolver choices and various shaft options. All this flexibility comes with the exceptional performance. And now the entire G-Series range goes from a size 1 (40 mm flange size) to a size 6 (190 mm flange size).
Controlling motion in a press that is 3 stories high, exerts forces of 36,000 kN (8,000,000 lbf) and that completes a cycle in 19 seconds is a significant challenge for any metal forming company. To make it even more complex, this machine is used for producing some of the latest plastics materials such as car doors, panels and even whole cars that require exacting quality right off the press.
If you've ever had to carry bicycles, skis or even a surfboard on the roof of you car, you likely know the Swedish roof rack maker Thule. For those who've hauled bikes or luggage on a road trip, a strong, reliable roof rack is indispensable equipment. And now Moog is helping to make that even more so.
