the moment loading is quite severe due to the rotational wrapping motion. The high moment load drives us to a ball-guided carriage. Application 2 – Machine automation: A linear unit needs high ...

Building a successful linear motion system starts with choosing the appropriate actuator. Between the different sizes, technologies, and qualities, hundreds of options exist. The trick is to ...

Every degree of linear or rotary motion on a machine is called an axis. Each axis may operate independently, or many axes may need to be closely coordinated. Think of a robotic arm with four rotary ...

Novel bi-phase piezo motor enables accurate linear motion in an extremely compact package. (Nanowerk News) PI, a global leader in nanopositioning, precision motion control systems, and air bearing ...

Translating rotary motion to linear motion is a basic part of mechatronic ... and that generally meets the needs of the machine. But in some machines, the stretchiness of a belt won’t cut ...

For cheap and accurate linear motion, we couldn’t come up with a build that does better than [Raul]’s.
