Industrial Barcode Scanners
Quickly identifying items in high throughput environments like production lines, or luggage or parcel handling systems, is usually done with barcode scanners.
The key scanner component is the motor that rotates the polygon mirror that deflects the scanner beam. Allied motion custom designs these long-life miniature precision BLDC motors for high performance barcode scanner/readers. |

Computer-to-Plate Laser Focus System
Constant correction of the writing laser in a fast, high resolution (2400 DPI, 340 LPI) direct computer-to-printing plate system requires an optics focusing system with very high dynamic response capability.
Allied Motion responded with the CM-2000 brushless linear motor actuator featuring a 1.52 mm focus range and high 150 Hz dynamic rate. Paired with the X-Drive digital servo drive, the CM-2000 can achieve superior performance in such high dynamic linear actuator systems. |

High Speed Electronics Assembly
Advanced SMT and through-hole placement in the electronics assembly industry requires motor and drive systems with exceptional dynamic performance in order to achieve high throughput of up to nearly 100,000 PPH.
For their machine's placement heads, component feeders, and positioning axes manufacturers demand the performance and precision provided by Allied Motion's high performance servo motors and drives. |

Pharmacy Automation
Estimates are that yearly over 700,000 people are injured or die from adverse drug events in North America. Many of those are from medication dispensing errors. Hence, the accuracy and efficiency afforded by automated prescription dispensing systems are real benefits to pharmacies, hospitals and patients.
Allied Motion's high performance servo motor and drive systems, and small coreless DC and BLDC motors are well-suited for powering automated medication retrieval and dispensing systems. |

Postal Service Package Handling
The U.S. Postal Service processes over a billion packages a year, and virtually every one is sorted and sent on its way using Allied Motion motors and gearmotors.
Durability and long, 24/7 service life are prime requirements of motors used in material handling systems like conveyors, pickers, sweep actuators, and similar MH equipment. Allied Motion's products meet and usually exceed the demands of material handling equipment manufacturers. |

Chemical Analysis Instrument Actuator
Near Infrared Transmittance (NIT) is an accurate analysis method for grain (and other products) to quickly determine characteristics such as protein and moisture content.
Allied Motion developed a high performance limited-angle motor with integral sine/cosine encoder to drive the analyzer's scanning mirror. The required system accuracy of less than one arc second helps ensure the reliability and uniformity of the analysis. |
