IAI
IAI designs, manufactures, and markets a complete line of motion control systems. As the established world leader in linear electric actuators and low cost, high performance SCARA robots, they provide over half of all linear actuators sold in Japan and are a leading source of advanced plug & play automation throughout North America and the world.
Featured Technology
EC Elecylinder
Want the motion profile control of an electric actuator, but only need 2 positions like a pneumatic cylinder and want to keep costs down? The new EC Elecylinder is the best of both worlds! Operates with the same ON/OFF signals like a solenoid valve, but is fully controllable.
GRS Solenoid Gripper
IAI’s new small solenoid gripper is the latest in electric grippers from IAI. It’s compact and light weight, low cost similar to an air chuck, and electric that operates with ON/OFF control with a single wire.
RCS3 Servo Press
The new RCS3 Servo Press is an all-in-one solution out of the box for press applications. Compact body, built in load cell for force feedback, and high-precision control makes it the perfect fit for almost all applications.
Key Products
ROBO Cylinders
The ROBO Cylinder is IAI’s flagship product. These are fully programmable electric actuators allowing you to program hundreds of movements and motion profiles by easily programming the Acceleration/Deceleration/Velocity in their simple software.
- AlphaStep – Closed Loop Stepper Series
- CVK – Speed Control Series
- AZ – Stepper Motor Driver Series
EC Elecylinders
The EC Elecylinder is a 2 position actuator perfect for replacing pneumatic applications when you want more control or to reduce the costs of compressor air. Easily program an 2 positions and ACEL/DECL/VEL within the stroke, and use ON/OFF signals to run.
- BLH – Brushless DC Series
- BMU – Brushless DC Series
- BLE2 – Brushless DC Series
RCS3 Servo Press
IAI’s RCS3 Servo Press Actuator with built-in load cell is the perfect actuator for press applications. It combines high-precision position control with easy to use adjustment of force and position allowing it to do things you just can’t do with hydraulic actuators.
