A new linear/rotary dual-motion actuator has been designed to provide incremental rotational and linear movement of the output shaft. The Size 14 actuator has two degrees of freedom of movement that ...

The integration of rotary and linear motions within a single actuation system has emerged as a transformative development in modern electromechanical engineering. Rotary-linear actuators combine the ...

When designing for linear motion applications, it's often better to choose a linear motor over a rotary servomotor and rotary-to-linear conversion components. When designing for linear motion ...

Solid linear rotary bearings, designed to thrive and survive in the presence of contaminants, are among thousands of precision electromechanical components in the Ultimate Nordex Design Guide 2004.

Lead screws are commonly used to convert rotary motion into linear motion, and often provide actuation to a set of linear bearings. Download this Tech Talk for insight into different lead screw ...

In applications demanding precision and throughput, linear motor production systems usually need to be built from the ground up. Fractional microns accuracy requires feedback from an optical encoder, ...

This paper will discuss a variety of rotary position feedback sensors including digital, contacting analog, and non-contacting analog, and may act as a high- level guide to selecting the right sensor ...
