Heason Technology Ltd

As an authorised distributor for Thomson, Heason Technology is increasingly specifying and supplying the linear drive and guidance systems manufacturer's Electrak Pro range of high performance electric actuators to replace traditional hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders used in off-highway construction, agricultural and recreational machinery.

Nanomotion's new FBR60 piezo-electric miniature rotary stage is now from available from Heason Technology. Providing an exceptionally compact footprint and low profile for precision motorised rotary positioning, the stage has a 60 mm diameter rotating element and overall height of just 35 mm and features a high-stiffness cross roller bearing construction, twin piezo-electric motors that provide zero backlash direct-drive, and an integral non-contact optical encoder with micropositioning resolution options of 5 or 0.5 arc-sec.

As a preferred systems integrator for Baldor Motion, Heason Technology's in-house design and assembly capability benefits from the global motion control leader's versatile e100 intelligent servomotor drive and controller range which continues to expand with additional communication and application development features.

Delta Tau's Geo Brick LV family of packaged 8-axis motion and machine controllers is available from Heason Technology as part of its motion system design and build service. The Geo Brick LV and the newly announced 19 rack mount version, the LV-PC, is supplied with eight user configurable 250W drives for linear or rotary brushed and brushless servos, ceramic motors or stepper motors in any mix with feedback interfaces that include practically all commercially available types available today.

Nanomotion, the leading manufacturer of piezo-electric motors for precision motion control applications, has added a new Z-wedge vertical stage to its FB range of compact nanometre level positioning mechanics. Available in the UK through Heason Technology, the new vertical stages complement a modular and compact range of linear, rotary and goniometric stages that together provide multi-axis and nanometre level translation in all six degrees of freedom.

Heason goes from strength to strength reporting record business growth. At the conclusion of the last financial year (year ended April 2011), bookings were up a remarkable 40% with sales revenues and profits also increased similarly. This coupled with recruitment of additional engineering professionals and relocation to new premises provide a “spring board” for the next major development phase allowing Heason to further expand and extend motion engineering solution capabilities throughout Europe.

Through its exclusive distribution partnership with the USA based motion specialists Dover Inc., Heason Technology offers a wide range of extremely precise air bearing positioning stages including the MAB-100 single axis linear motor driven stage. With a 100 mm travel range, nominal overall accuracy within one micron and a choice of resolution options from 5 microns to 5 nanometres, the compact MAB-100 essentially eliminates the unwanted motion characteristics that are associated with contacting bearing systems such as friction and hysteresis, and delivers exceptionally precise positioning with outstanding straight-line motion, high stage stiffness and rapid dynamic performance.

Kollmorgen Europe GmbH, the global motion systems and components manufacturer has signed UK based motion control distributor and systems integrator Heason Technology into its newly launched 'Sales Partner Program'

Heason Technology has developed a new range of low-cost Cartesian style gantry positioning systems for pick and place applications in the growing biomedical and laboratory automation market and other industries where medium precision and medium duty robotic handing for assembly or parts sorting is required.

The Thomson Micron® Gearhead Express programme, a 24 hour build and despatch service for the USA manufacturers wide range of TRUE series planetary gearheads, has now been expanded to over 250 size and ratio combinations. Available in the UK through motion control specialists Heason Technology Limited, the programme ensures fast delivery of new applications or replacements for almost every standard in-line size and ratio across the Thomson Micron planetary gearhead range - many of which are dimensionally compatible with competitive lines.

Heason Technology Limited has installed a new cleanroom area for component preparation and final assembly of customised motion platforms at its West Sussex production facility. The fully equipped cleanroom is in response to ever increasing demands from customers for higher volumes of vacuum and clean room prepared motion systems and allows Heason to perform assembly in-house.

Heason Technology has added the new Thomson T60 precision ballscrew linear actuator to its wide range of positioning solutions. The T60 is a very compact and powerful push-rod style actuator with a 75 mm x 60 mm profile housing and a 38 mm diameter hard chromed steel extension tube for selectable travel up to1500mm, direct force to 1000N, speeds to 300 mm/sec and acceleration to 8 m/sec2.

Thomson Elektrak Pro series push-rod style linear actuators are now available from West Sussex based motion specialist Heason Technology Limited. Characterised by its extreme durability, toughness and compactness, the DC motor driven Electrak Pro is available in Acme leadscrew or ballscrew versions with a broad range of options making it equally suited for simple open loop load actuation or sophisticated closed loop control.

Heason Technology Limited has been appointed as UK Premier Partner by the electromechanical control technology leader Danaher Motion for its Thomson brand linear motion product brands. The jointly signed agreement strengthens Heason Technology’s long-standing distribution partnership with Danaher, adding Thomson mechanical motion components to the expanding capability of the West Sussex based designer and manufacturer of high precision motion control and positioning systems.

Heason Technology has launched a new low- cost modular actuator range for pick & place and sample dispensing in life science and other analytical equipment applications.
