Machine identification
I recently bought these 2 machines at an auction as they have lots of heavy duty linear motion components. There are quite a few vacuum components along with large Parker servo motors and other Parker linear motion gadgets.
Does anyone have an idea what they may have been used for? |

Looks like it may have been a foam cutter maybe,

That makes sense as the items came from an office furniture manufacturer. There was a pallet of large Parker extrusions offered, some of which had servos attached that I didn't win unfortunately. It would seem that these may have been part of a larger custom built system as there are no other brand/manufacturer tags on the items. It's a shame, but there's a good chance I'll wind up dismantling them for use in other projects.
I also picked up a nice Nederman dust collector which appears to be an E-PAK 150 model in a nice shade of blue. It should compliment my Mechmate nicely (please excuse the poor cell phone image quality). Last edited by kentster; Tue 02 August 2011 at 22:26.. |

I picked up the units today and discovered that I'm now in possession of 2 Parker HZR100 vertical actuator units with Mitsubishi 1.5KW servos. I suspect these could be used as the Z axis of a large scale overhead gantry router. The extrusion is 100mmx1000mm and the longest of the 2 is 1828mm.
