PI’s new linear motor stage was designed for test, assembly and automation applications where extreme guiding precision and accuracy are key. Auburn, MA – Global precision motion control and ...

Precision automation systems and instrumentation equipment manufacturers depend on motion components in applications from micro-mechanical assembly to optical scanning. PI offers a wide range of ...

SCHAUMBURG, IL--(Marketwired - July 09, 2013) - HEIDENHAIN announces its miniature incremental exposed linear encoders, the LIF400 Series, designed especially for linear motor applications. With its ...

A few characteristics of dc motors maintain linear relationships that allow for very predictable operation. First, if enough voltage is applied across the terminals of a dc motor, the output shaft ...

A motor turns, and through a series of belts, gears, couplings and ball screws, rotary motion changes to linear. For decades, designers have been configuring such mechanisms, essentially starting from ...

We’ve all heard linear motors, like those propelling Maglev trains, described as “unrolled” versions of regular electric motors. The analogy is apt and helps to understand how a linear motor works, ...

A linear motor is referred to as an electromagnetic device that generates motion along a straight path. The motor consists of a primary part known as the stator, which contains a series of ...

The things often prioritized in the list of requirements of design engineers from the precision automation sector are different from those of their colleagues in the instrumentation industry. Dynamic ...

Essentially, a guide wheel is a ball bearing that has a special shaped outer race. The inner and outer races of ball bearings are a framework with a groove for the balls to rest in. Burke explained ...

V-738 XY-stages are motorized linear stages driven by linear motors and used in many precision motion and laser machining industrial applications. The XY stage shown above is driven by linear motors ...

With its Hunstable Electric Turbine, Linear Labs promises three times the torque, twice the power and a 10% increase in range in an electric vehicle over a typical permanent magnet motor. One problem ...

The Prior Scientific HLD117 series of linear stages for inverted research microscopes set new standards for convenience and top performance. The HLD117 linear stages operate on a different principle ...
