If you’ve ever sat in a racing simulator and felt the seat move, that’s motion feedback at work. One of the most important types of movement is called linear motion. It helps make the simulator feel ...

Abstract: This paper presents an initial formal review of the suitability of currently available actuation technologies for use in fully implantable medical devices, with a focus on applications ...

Changing linear pitch on Uhing rolling ring linear drives is now faster and easier using a lever control option on the drive unit. The pitch control lever permits manually setting and changing linear ...

There are many technical and commercial factors that original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) must evaluate when designing motion control solutions for industrial machinery. Many types of industrial ...

The right positioning table and digital drive combination enables precision adjustments with fast response and settling times. As automated equipment in industrial, medical and life science markets ...

Do you know the difference between linear motors, rack and pinion, timing belts and ball screws in linear motion? Understanding the functionality and intelligence of drive systems in motion is ...

Cleanrooms play an essential role in contamination-sensitive applications such as semiconductor fabrication, pharmaceuticals, optics, medical devices/life sciences, and many more. Cleanrooms control ...

Most assembly operations don’t require complex motion. A simple up-and-down or side-to-side move is all that’s required. A linear actuator might be used to: Extend and retract a dispensing valve or a ...

Electric motors are generally rotating machines. And over the roughly 100 years of electric motor history, incredible effort has been put into adapting the technology to do an almost infiinite array ...
