NSK bearing control system development

Tokyo, Japan, October 2, 2008, NSK Ltd. today announced that it has developed a micro-operation system, easy to handle micro projects. Have the ability to manipulate small projects as a single cell, the new system can be used for a variety of medical science and angular contact ball bearing applications. Nanotechnology will also find a useful tool for system assembly microscope.

With a proprietary piezoelectric actuator so easy to operate, the system uses a three-axis (XYZ) positioning stage, is conducive to attach measuring devices, micro and microscopic examination preparation. In the development of the system has been widely NSK-house expertise, comprehensive mechatronics and precision positioning drive technology knowledge accumulated decades of experience to develop related technologies, such as bearings, mechanical and electrical products and image processing technologies. A key advantage of the development team is NSK's fine positioning technology. Nm using the system the positioner, and driving the rotary motor, this technique uses a piezoelectric element is fine movement positioning control various settings.

The system's ability to manipulate cells are currently being evaluated Naaomibai professor at Azabu University School of Veterinary Medicine. Combined with the latest image processing technology, the new NSK micro-manipulation system can meet market demand as a system, is both highly accurate and easy to operate. For business in the coming year, NSK will exhibit the system at Bio Expo Japan this month on the 7th and submit papers in the biological research support products and technical seminars.
