Fagor Automation participates in the Organization and Sponsoring Committee of the 18th Conference on Machine-tools and Manufacturing technologies held in San Sebastian (Basque Country – Spain) from November 10th to 12th of 2010.
FVC, Fagor Volumetric Compensation
Machines for the aerospace sector demand automation systems with higher precision in their work pieces and machines. In this industry, complex 5-axis machines are used to machine large work pieces and their precision will depend on the tolerances used when manufacturing the machine and the effect of temperature while machining.
The HA angular encoder
Fagor Automation presents its new angular encoder at the SPS/IPC/DRIVES in Nuremberg (Germany) from the 23th to 25th of November.
The company is going to present their latest advances in measurement systems showing a qualitative leap in the technology used to provide automation solutions. VISIT US at booth number 4A-438 !
Stanford University turns to the precision of Fagor Automation encoders
The Stanford Linear Accelerator Center is a multi-research center for astrophysics, photovoltaic science, molecule accelerator and research on physical particles. Center running under the Energy department of the US government and Headquarters of the current 3km-diameter accelerator ring, one of the largest in the world.
Variable profiling, a process under control
Two of the main factors when developing a new vehicle are higher efficiency and greater passenger safety. They both depend to a great extent on the body of the car or truck. Obtaining an efficient vehicle requires controlling its weight in order to reduce fuel consumption. And safety requires a very strong structure against collision, vibration or fatigue which could be achieved by increasing its weight.

Integral solutions for complex machines: Large and with high-end features
In its more than 30 years of existence, Fagor Automation has given solutions to all kinds of machines, from the simplest looking for flexible operation and production to the most complex with very high technical and productive demands.
During this year exhibitions, Fagor Automation is going to present their latest advances in control and measurement systems showing a qualitative leap in the technology used to provide integral solutions to high-end machines. There are three main products to point out:
The “Advanced Photon Source” (APS) relies on Fagor Automation
The “Advanced Photon Source” uses Fagor Automation´s encoders in one of the most technologically complex and demanding machines in the world.
The “APS”, at Argonne National Laboratory , located in Chicago (Illinois), is a pioneer laboratory funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, is an X-ray accelerator ring, which keeps the X-ray beam in place by two magnets, has relied on the work of Fagor Automation to ensure that the beam remains centered between the ring and the electrodes.
