NOTE: All chopper drive curves were created with a 5 volt motor and a 40 volt power supply. Ramping can increase the performance of a motor either by increasing the top speed or getting a heavier load accelerated up to speed faster. Also, deceleration can be used to stop the motor without overshoot. With L/R drives peak force and speeds are reduced, using a unipolar drive will yield a further 30% force reduction. 4

BFW Series BFW Series For applications that do not require anti-backlash or wear compensation Long life at minimal cost. Kerkite Composite Polymer Nuts In addition to the Kerk self-lubricating acetal nut material, Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions offers a variety of custom compounded Kerkite composite polymers. Kerkite polymers are a family of high performance materials that offer exceptional wear properties with the cost and design advantages afforded through injection molding. Kerkite polymers offer a variety of mechanical, thermal and electrical properties and are compatible with many chemicals and environmental conditions. Kerkite Composite Polymers are available options for most Kerk Lead-screw Nuts and are standard materials for Linear Rail and Spline Shaft bushings, RGS Carriages and Screwrail Bushings and End Supports. Each member of the Kerkite family is compounded with lubricants, reinforcements and thermoplastic polymers formulated to provide optimum performance in its target conditions and applications, resulting in superior performance and extended life. A cornerstone of the Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions advantage is design flexibility. Kerkite Composite Polymers, along with our injection molding and mold making capabilities, offer huge design advantages and cost savings compared with non-moldable materials. Kerkite high performance polymers outperform other plastics and outlast metal bushings and bearings. When combined with Kerkote or Black Ice TFE coatings, Kerkite Composite Polymers have been shown to provide hundreds of millions of inches of travel in customer applications while continuing to maintain precise, accurate motion and positioning. Special Materials In addition to the Kerk standard material 303 stainless steel, self lubricating acetal and Kerkite high performance composite polymers we also work with a vast array of custom materials. Kerk has rolled screws in many other materials, including 316 stainless, 400 series stainless, precipitate hardening materials, carbon steel, aluminum, and titanium. Kerk nuts had been produced in many alternative plastics including PEEK, polyester, Torlon, Vespel, PVDF, UHMW, Ertalyte and customer-supplied specialty materials. We have also provided metal nuts made from bronze, brass, and stainless steel. With so much flexibility in our manufacturing process, if the material can be molded, machined, ground, or rolled, Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions can likely process it using state of the art machine tools, injection molding and mold making, grinding and thread rolling equipment. Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions excels at supplying the best overall solution to meet our customers requirements. Kerkote TFE Coating Kerkote TFE coating covering the entire screw surface results in an extremely even lubrication distribution. Test results indicate system torque requirements are consistently low with little or no change in required frictional driving torque, even with changes in motor R.P.M. Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions has developed a custom composition Kerkote TFE specifically for our lead screw and nut materials. It is applied using an automated process and provides extended nut life and smooth operation with little additional cost. Kerkote TFE is a soft coating, a long-term dry lubricant that is optimized for softer plastics like acetals and nylons, with or without mechanical reinforcement. Lubrication to the nut/screw interface occurs by the nut picking up Kerkote TFE particles from the coating as well as from the migration of the internal lubricant within the plastic nut. Although care is taken to ensure that chips and voids do not occur in the coating, small voids have been shown to have no effect on system performance. The transfer of TFE to the nut continues throughout the operating life of the assembly as long as the nut periodically travels over areas with Kerkote TFE coating. The lubricant, although solid, also has some spreading ability as in fluid lubricants. Kerkote TFE coated screws provide the maximum level of self-lubrication and should not be additionally lubricated or used in environments where oils or other lubricant contamination is possible. Black Ice TFE Coating Black Ice TFE coating shares many of the benefits of Kerkote TFE but, in contrast, is a hard coating that offers exceptional durability in all types of environments, with virtually any type of polymer nut. Black Ice TFE coating remains on the screw, offering a low friction surface upon which the nut travels. Rather than acting as a dry lubricant, Black Ice TFE is an anti-friction coating whose surface properties displace the metal to which it is applied. Though it is not intended for use with metal or glass fiber reinforced nuts, Black Ice TFE is bonded securely to the screw s surface and can withstand abrasion from contamination, rigid polymer systems, fluid impingement and wash down applications. Black Ice TFE can be used in the presence of more aggressive environment conditions, or anywhere reduced friction and a permanent coating is desired. Both Kerkote and Black Ice TFE coatings offer the advantages of dry lubrication. These are maintenance-free coatings that are designed to last the life of the product. They are intended to be used without additional lubricants, thereby further increasing the value of Kerk lead-screw assemblies through elimination of the most common failure of screw driven drives, lubrication failure. There are certain applications where external lubrication may be desired. These include the use of nut materials such as glass reinforced plastic or metal. Greases, when used properly can provide unique capabilities and Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions does offer a selection of greases developed specifically for these applications. Please contact a sales engineer for assistance selecting the best lubricant for your requirements. 6

HAYD: 203 756 7441 Linear Rails: Properly Sizing A Linear Rail System Information needed to properly size a linear rail system Haydon Kerk Linear Rail Systems are designed to be precision motion devices. Many variables must be considered before applying a particular rail system in an application. The following is a basic checklist of information needed that will make it easier for the Haydon Kerk engineering team to assist you in choosing the proper linear rail. Linear Rail Application Checklist 1) Maximum Load? (N or lbs.) 2) Load Center of Gravity (cg) Distance and Height (mm or inches)? See illustrations (A) (B) (C) below. Dimensions ( mm / inch): (A)... OR... (B) AND... (C) (A) (C) (B) 3) Rail Mount Orientation? The force needed to move the load is dependent on the orientation of the load relative to the force of gravity. For example, total required force in the horizontal plane (D) is a function of friction and the force needed for load acceleration (F f + F a ). Total force in the vertical plane is a function of friction, load acceleration, and gravity (F f + F a + F g ). Orientation: (D) (E) (F) (G) (H) 7

HAYD: 203 756 7441 Linear Rails: Properly Sizing A Linear Rail System Linear Rail Application Checklist (Continued) 4) Stroke Length to Move Load? (mm or inches) Overall rail size will be a function of stroke length needed to move the load, the rail frame size (load capability), the motor size, and whether or not an integrated stepper motor programmable drive system is added. 5) Move Profile? A trapezoidal move profile divided into 3 equal segments (J) is a common move profile and easy to work with. Another common move profile is a triangular profile divided into 2 equal segments (K). (J) (K) If using a trapezoidal (J) or triangular (K) move profile, the following is needed a) Point to point move distance (mm or inches) b) Move time (seconds) including time of acceleration and deceleration c) Dwell time between moves (seconds) The trapezoidal move profile (J) is a good starting point in helping to size a system for prototype work. A complex move profile (L) requires more information. a) Time (in seconds) including: T 1, T 2, T 3, T 4, T 5 T n and T dwell b) Acceleration / Deceleration (mm/sec. 2 or inches/sec. 2 ) including: A 1, A 2, A 3 A n For more information call Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions Engineering at 203 756 7441. (L) 8

HAYD: 203 756 7441 Linear Rails: Properly Sizing A Linear Rail System Linear Rail Application Checklist (Continued) 6) Position Accuracy Required? (mm or inches) Accuracy is defined as the difference between the theoretical position and actual position capability of the system. Due to manufacturing tolerances in components, actual travel will be slightly different than theoretical commanded position. See figure (M) below. 7) Position Repeatability Required? (mm or inches) Repeatability is defined as the range of positions attained when the rail is commanded to approach the same position multiple times under identical conditions. See figure (M) below. (M) 8) Positioning Resolution Required? (mm/step or inches/step) Positioning resolution is the smallest move command that the system can generate. The resolution is a function of many factors including the drive electronics, lead screw pitch, and encoder (if required). The terms resolution and accuracy should never be used interchangeably. 9) Closed-Loop Position Correction Required? YES NO In stepper motor-based linear rail systems, position correction is typically accomplished using a rotary incremental encoder (either optical or magnetic). 10) Life Requirement? (select the most important application parameter) a) Total mm or inches... or... b) Number of Full Strokes... or... c) Number of Cycles 11) Operating Temperature Range ( C or F) a) Will the system operate in an environment in which the worst case temperature is above room temperature? b) Will the system be mounted in an enclosure with other equipment generating heat? 12) Controller / Drive Information? a) Haydon Kerk IDEA Drive (with Size 17 Stepper Motors only) b) Customer Supplied Drive... Type? Chopper Drive L / R Drive Model / Style of Drive: 13) Power Supply Voltage? (VDC) 14)* Step Resolution? a) Full Step b) Half-Step c) Micro-Step 15)* Drive Current? (A rms / Phase) and (A peak / Phase) 16)* Current Boost Capability? (%) * If the Haydon Kerk IDEA Drive is used disregard items 14, 15, and 16. 9
