  • Multi-axis air/electrical control system
    Patent number: 6989646
    Abstract: A system for allowing a wide selection of components to affect a desired result in the positioning business. Up to nine axes of coordinated motion are offered each of which may use a servomotor, a single or double rod air cylinder. The control for the system is a series of digital commands that cause the cylinder to accelerate, decelerate, maintain a given velocity, stop or pause and repeat a series of commands. It uses a low power servo system which, when activated, opens an air valve to an air cylinder which then moves until the valve actuator is turned off by the cylinder thus causing the air cylinder to follow the lower power servo system.
