NiMotion releases the new WDG-28 integrated micro electric cylinder: small size, compact structure, powerful performance!
With the rapid development of industrial automation, medical equipment, precision instruments, and other fields, the demand for precision mechanical transmission components is growing. Traditional electric cylinders have many limitations in terms of size, accuracy, maintenance, and functional diversity, making them difficult to meet the high standards of modern industry. To this end, Nimotion has launched the WDG-28 series of micro electric cylinders. With its excellent performance and flexible design, it provides users with efficient and precise motion control solutions.
01.Integrated structural design, no coupling required
The WDG-28 series micro electric cylinders feature an integrated design, integrating a stepper motor (STM28 series), driver, encoder, linear guide, ball screw, and other modules, enabling each component to work together efficiently and stably. This design not only simplifies installation space and improves system reliability, but also significantly reduces the user's installation, maintenance, and commissioning workload.
The WDG-28 series miniature electric cylinders offer compact size without sacrificing performance. On the contrary, through careful design and optimization, they have achieved industry-leading levels in load capacity, positioning accuracy, and motion speed.
02.Precision ball screw structure
The WDG-28 series of micro electric cylinders utilizes a ball screw as the core transmission component. This 4mm diameter allows for a maximum effective stroke of 50mm and a repeatability of ±0.005mm. This ensures sufficient strength while effectively reducing friction and heat generation during transmission. The bottom section features an aluminum alloy guide rail, connected to the ball screw. This effectively reduces friction and heat generation during operation, while also achieving a more compact overall design and significantly reducing the overall size of the cylinder.
03.CANopen/RS485 Bus Communication
The WDG-28 series micro electric cylinders support both CANopen and RS485 communication protocols, enabling seamless integration with various industrial automation equipment. The CANopen protocol is renowned for its high reliability and real-time performance, while the RS485 protocol offers long transmission distances and strong anti-interference capabilities, meeting the communication needs of diverse scenarios.
In addition, the WDG-28 series micro electric cylinders support DI/DO control signals and can be configured for pulse input. Please refer to the user manual for details.
04.Multiple motion control modes
The WDG-28 series micro electric cylinders not only support basic motion control functions but also offer a variety of advanced control modes, including Profile Position Mode (PP), Profile Velocity Mode (PV), Profile Torque Mode (PT), Velocity Mode (VM), Interpolation Mode (IP), Home Return Mode (HM) (both on/off and locked-rotor), Cyclic Synchronous Position Mode (CSP), Cyclic Synchronous Velocity Mode (CSV), and Cyclic Synchronous Torque Mode (CST). These offer users a more flexible and precise motion control solution.
The support of these advanced control modes enables the electric cylinder to adapt to the needs of various application scenarios and achieve efficient and reliable industrial automation control.
05.Easy installation and debugging
NiMStudio host computer debugging software integrates "cylinder debugging" functionality, enabling control and debugging of electric cylinders via a computer or other intelligent device. Simply connect the cylinder to the host computer and the software interface allows users to easily configure parameters, control motion, and monitor status.
Through the software interface, users can achieve precise control of the electric cylinder, including start, stop, forward and reverse operations.
The debugging software's interface is concise and easy to use. Both professional technicians and regular users can easily master its usage and quickly complete the cylinder's debugging and configuration.
