Before you read to the end, do you know what the main ingredient of WD-40 is? Don’t lie and don’t cheat.
WD-40. Who knew? I had a neighbor who had bought a new pickup. I got up very early one Sunday morning and saw that someone had spray painted red all around [...]

This system was developed as a prototype to replace an existing pick and place automation system from a competitor. The pick and place system is used in the clothing manufacturing industry and is an integral part of the clients packaging automation.
Multiple Macron 6 belt driven linear actuators were used along with customized MacFRAME machinery framing.

In the aerospace industry, inspection of components is vital to success and safety. This ball screw positioning table was developed when a client in the aerospace industry approached Macron engineers about designing a table for inspecting panels. The system utilized a Macron XY dual rail positioning table which had a device attached to it to [...]

This large automated gantry system spans a grid of 45 feet by 27 feet of travel. Developed by Macron for use as a calibrating and inspection tool, the gantry masks a large military tracking system used to monitor the location of fighter jets. In order to calibrate and check the accuracy of the tracking system, [...]

The Macron 14 H linear actuator is designed for heavy duty automation applications found in different industries. This automation system was designed for use in an industrial shop environment where large, heavy pieces of glass are cut.
The glass cutting process where this system was installed had previously been carried out by hand. In order to [...]

This automated motion system was designed for use in the automotive industry for moving very heavy loads from one area to another during the manufacturing process. The actuator cart for this application was a completely custom designed and manufactured by Macron mechanical motion engineers to accommodate very heavy loads.
The motion system uses custom Macron 14 [...]

This XY motion system used dual Macron 14 linear actuators to ensure extremely tight accuracy specifications were maintained in the manufacturing of window frames. The smooth operating, zero backlash belt driven actuators allowed that each part of the window frame would be brought together consistently and accurately each time for welding. The motion system was [...]

This custom X-Y axis, double stacked gantry system and frame was engineered for use in a laboratory research and development environment by Macron. One of the challenges in designing this gantry system was that the gantry would be moving around hazardous materials, making precise movement and travel a requirement.
Macron chose two  Macron 14 belt drive [...]

This wrap around cart,  single axis linear actuator was designed for an automated bag sealing and cutting system for a client in the medical industry. Used to seal and cut IV medical bags, Macron engineers designed a wrap around cart in order to increase moment load capability of this actuator. The standard Macron 14 linear [...]
