They carry loads at speeds up to 70 inches per second and are designed for horizontal or vertical applications. Ideal for positioning operations in all types of machinery, Roh'lix is often a less ...

Abstract: Mechanical linear actuators are employed extensively in various industrial applications where a linear motion is required. Typical linear mechanical actuators such as ball screws, chain ...

For rotary or linear motors, motion is produced in the same way and the same basic physics and electromagnetic forces apply. The theory that produces "torque" in a rotary motor produces "force" in a ...

Until a few years ago, designers looking to power a linear-motion-control application faced three imperfect options: traditional electric motors or hydraulic or pneumatic cylinders. Hydraulic ...

Motion control engineers want choices and linear actuator suppliers have responded. In addition to the usual design criteria of thrust, lead, resolution and accuracy, options range from having an ...

A cam is a rotating piece that converts rotary motion into reciprocating motion in the follower. Think of it like a spinning shape pushing something up and down. Eccentric/off centre cam: this is the ...
