Mechanical
Kim Controls offers a variety of mechanical and electromechanical power transmission products including linear motion slides and actuators, precision gearboxes for servomotors or NEMA motors, cycloidal gearboxes for indexing tables, and machine tooling, timing belts and pulleys, drive couplings, and tapered drive bushings.
Linear Motion Slides and Actuators
Kim Controls offers standard and precision linear motion components and systems for machine integration and material handling solutions. We represent a wide variety of manufactures offering unlimited choices for load, range, speed, accuracy, and acceleration. We specialize in the integration of linear slides and actuators integrated into aluminum frame material handling systems along with a full range of standard and custom sizes with the longest carriage available in the industry.
Precision Gearboxes
Our manufacturers provide highly engineered gearboxes from the finest materials. They are precision manufactured offering high torque and quiet operation. Both in‐line and right‐angle planetary provide low backlash and high-efficiency output. Offering both metric and NEMA sizes to fit almost all motors and drive systems on the market today. Special input and output connection designs are available. Custom gear sets to integrate into your product are also available.
Cycloidal Gearboxes
These gearboxes are designed to offer the highest precision, the lowest backlash with the highest torque, and the largest ratios and shock‐load available. Applications include precision systems such as medical imaging machines, positioners, antenna systems, robotic machines, and more. Standard styles come with center thru‐hole, right angle, compact, high velocity, and custom mounting options.
Drive Couplings
We offer precision couplings for servo and stepper systems along with industrial and power transmission applications. We represent a varied product offering of metal bellows, elastomer, safety line, and disk pack precision designs. Available in standard sizes or contact us at 888-296-1295 to design for your special application.
Machine Frames (Aluminum)
Our item Midwest aluminum extrusion manufacturing facility can design, build and install a complete machine structure. We offer the largest selection of machine frame building components and sizes in the world. We can construct everything from a simple machine frame or workbench up to a complete plant production system including stairway, gangway, and platform systems.
Machine Guarding (Aluminum)
The guarding can be connected directly to the machine or built around it for complete protection. Aluminum offers flexible and strong design options. We have mesh or polycarbonate held in place with strong extruded aluminum framing. A wide variety of entry doors and product entry and exit systems are available with various latching and door lifting mechanisms. These mechanical systems fully integrate with electronic safety and security products.
