10/27/2022 | Thomson to showcase advanced linear motion solutions for smart automation at SPS 2022

WOLFSCHLUGEN, GERMANY – Thomson Industries, Inc., a leading manufacturer of linear motion control solutions, will be exhibiting at SPS (Smart Product Solutions) in Nuremberg, Germany, from 8-10 November 2022, alongside Altra Industrial Motion, Inc.

As a leading fair for smart and digital automation, the exhibition provides Thomson a unique opportunity to showcase its innovative portfolio of linear motion solutions, including electric linear actuators, linear bearings and guides, linear motion systems, and ball and lead screws.

Thomson's cutting-edge smart linear actuators feature integrated, flexible onboard controls, tremendous power, unparalleled environmental protection and optional, built-in CAN bus support. These actuators offer improved controllability, are built to withstand harsh industrial use, and are an excellent choice to replace hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders.

German-engineered, precision high-load ball screws will be another special attraction at SPS as they offer increased capacity for high-load applications at high velocities and prolonged lifetimes. They offer a maximum dynamic load capacity of 1,440 kN and are available with diameters ranging from 40 to 160 mm.

Thomson's 75+ years of engineering experience has spurred the development of its robust linear motion systems, making them ideal for material handling, factory automation, medical and health, mobile off-highway, packaging and other advanced industrial applications that demand high speed or long stroke capabilities.

Thomson representatives will be on hand in Hall 3, Booth 270 to discuss their diverse linear motion solutions in greater detail. For more information, please visit www.thomsonlinear.com
