Design refinements boost performance of self-aligning ball bushing while maintaining their error-correcting nature.

Linear motors are proliferating. They give machines the absolute highest precision and dynamic performance. Linear motors are very quick and precise for positioning, but are also capable of slow, ...

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 ...

In the next few weeks, linear motors will face their ultimate litmus test. After years in the eye of a swirling technical storm, surrounded by doubters who say they're too expensive, supported by a ...

Actuators are used in a variety of medical applications ranging from prosthetics through to testing and rehabilitations devices. Actuonix’s medical clients range from startups through multinational ...

A cam is a simple mechanism that converts rotary motion (movement that goes round in a circle) into linear motion (movement in a straight line). These mechanisms can be found in car engines, printing ...
