Selecting the correct technology for reliability and performance in your challenging applications.
Machine designers and manufacturers operate in a challenging business environment these days needing to offer the best solution for the best value. Technology, reliability, performance and safety are major factors to consider - and to deliver. And to make it more challenging many times the motion control solutions are required to be placed in areas considered hazardous and requiring explosion proof certifications.
Oil and gas exploration and production represents one of the world's most extreme operating environments. Moog's products and solutions are reaching deep below the surface under high temperature, high pressure while others are surface-based and operating in hazardous locations. This wide range of operating conditions offers considerable challenges on your equipment. To offer machine builders better options in motion control hydraulic and electric technologies, Moog has expanded its successful family of hydraulic and electric motion control technologies some of which are certified for potentially hazardous environments.
This webinar will help you in making the correct choice between hydraulic and electric motion control technologies. Experts will review both Moog technologies and step through a design process and show what you should consider when making the choice for your application. Discussions will focus on selection techniques, environmental conditions, precision, load considerations, power and envelope.
Do you have a choice to make? Hydraulic versus electric? Join us.
