Advances in linear motors and hybrid actuators are pushing motion systems toward higher precision, speed and efficiency. A ...

How linear, rotary, reciprocating and oscillating motion are evolving as customization grows and new capabilities emerge.

[Raul] built a cheap linear actuator out of a drawer slide and a surplus flatbed scanner. A few builds we’ve seen, like the PCB drill press or the horribly inefficient thermostat, used linear ...

AutomationDirect has added stepper motor linear actuators to its SureStep line of stepper motion control products. These linear actuators are NEMA 17 or NEMA 23 frame stepper motors with a ...

The new Allen-Bradley LDAT-SeriesTM Integrated Linear Thruster from Rockwell Automation is the first commercially available moving magnet iron core linear motor actuator with a built-in linear guide ...

The micro actuator L-239 high load precision actuator was developed for applications with limited space conditions or where high-precision actuators must be positioned decoupled of the drive. Compared ...

SHENZHEN, CHINA / ACCESSWIRE / July 6, 2020 / Modern science and technology have succeeded in helping people live independently and conveniently in a smart way. According to Smart Home Report 2019 ...

We’ve seen plenty of motor projects, but [Jeremy]’s DIY Tubular Linear Motor is a really neat variety of stepper motor in a format we certainly don’t see every day. It started as a design experiment ...

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 ABCs of PID control. Considerations for interfacing elements in the electrical circuit to accomplish those parts of the PID function for position control. Firmware code implementation.
