Elevating PowerProbe - EPP magnetic manipulators

The unique Elevating PowerProbe transforms conventional approaches to sample transfer. In addition to its internally guided linear motion, the probe has the ability to axially elevate its end effecter, throughout its stroke, providing the Z motion required for sample hand-off. This removes the need for secondary motion tools, reducing costs and simplifying the transfer process itself.

Specification Table
Linear power version Standard
Stroke 250mm  (10"), 304mm  (12"), 457mm (18")
609mm (24"), 914mm (36")
Actuation H (Manually actuated available only on Elevating PowerProbe)
Mounting flange CFNW35 70mm (2.75") OD 
Linear coupling break away force 70N (15 lbf) 180N (40 lbf) 310N (69 lbf)
Rotary coupling break away force 4Nm (2.95 lbft)
Maximum recommended internally applied load (moment) when horizontally installed Click here to view coupling torque graphs
Maximum recommended internally applied load when vertically installed This is a function of the load acceleration. In a static case the load may approach the coupling breakaway force, however, using a safety factor of 5 the coupling would tolerate:
Not suitable for vertical mounting 36N (8lbf) with moderate accelerations 62N (14lbf) with moderate accelerations
