Multi-axis motion control systems are built to deliver precise control of multiple machine axes — often in three-dimensional ...

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 ...

A common model still used in many high schools is the wooden or plaster cone used to show how the conic sections (circle, ellipse, parabola, hyperbola) arise from slicing a cone at different angles to ...

Precision of rotational and linear measurement underpins motion control systems, and optical encoders are a mainstay in delivering this. Converting mechanical motion into digital signals enables ...

Thomson Industries’ Movotrak CTU 7th axis features a Kollmorgen servo motor, linear-unit-driven guide rails and collision ...
