Thomson: high precision repeated positioning innovation to seek development
Reengineering workshop
As an enterprise that has been in the field of linear motion for more than 70 years, Thomson products cover various linear motion products such as electric cylinders, modules, electric push rods and lead screws, providing professional linear motion solutions for customers in various industries of global automobile manufacturing, material handling and power lithium battery. At this AMTS exhibition, the Thomson mainly exhibited electric cylinders and module products.
Thomson T series electric cylinders, the maximum thrust of a single cylinder can reach 6 tons and the maximum thrust of the module can reach 1.2 tons. At the same time, these products can still achieve very high repeated positioning accuracy -0.05mm when running at heavy load or high speed, which provides an ideal choice for customers to solve some challenging material handling and testing application designs. The electric cylinder adopts the ball screw made by the German factory. The high quality screw ensures the long life and stability of the electric cylinder, ensures the stable output of press-fitting and the accuracy of detection, and can realize the press-fitting of automobile parts with large load, tire handling, etc.
Later, Mr. Zhu Jianling, sales manager of Thomson China, showed us a light and high-speed PC series electric cylinder. The electric cylinder can achieve multi-axis high-precision synchronous control, easy to install, Thomson to use RediMount™The motor mounting system can be installed within 5 minutes. Due to the streamlined profile and IP65 protection, it can be quickly and effectively washed and cleaned directly. The use and total cost are lower than that of cylinder products. It is an ideal solution for replacing pneumatic. "This is a product that we have very innovative features. It can provide very large loads in a very small space while ensuring very high accuracy." Mr. Zhu Jianling, sales manager of Thomson China, said.
After the concept of industrial 4.0 was put forward, intelligence, Internet of Things, big data, and cloud computing have become hot spots. The new round of industrial revolution can make breakthroughs in the dimensions of intelligence, informatization, and digitalization. Thomson next-generation "smart" actuator product, Electrak HD, is feature-rich, easy-to-use, and housed in a compact housing with all the controllers and feedback options in a modular design, which not only improves controllability, saves space, reduces installation time, and reduces total cost. "This product can realize the synchronization of 2 or more linear actuators, and the load can reach up to 16KN. It is also an ideal choice for hydraulic upgrades to electric products." Zhu Jianling said.
Automobile manufacturing is the industry with the most intensive and complex application of industrial automation, and with the application of new technologies such as new energy vehicles, industry customers need more flexible and agile project development. Thomson have localized production lines and professional sales and technical teams in China, which can provide professional linear motion solutions and services for domestic automobile manufacturing industry customers. Talking about the current situation of the automobile industry in 2019, Zhu Jianling told us that although the first half of 2019 was affected by the general environment, the Thomson still achieved positive growth, which also benefited from the Thomson's continuous innovation of products and the continuous development of new markets. "In the past few years, we have been continuously exploring in emerging industries such as lithium batteries, 5G, AGV, etc., and are also actively looking for new growth points in traditional fields to help customers realize the transformation from hydro-pneumatic to electrification. This is also one of the reasons why Thomson can always maintain vitality." Zhu Jianling concluded.
