RC servos are handy when you need to rotate something. You can even modify them to rotate continuously if that’s what you need. However, [Roger Rabbit] needed linear motion, but wanted the simple ...

Thomson Industries , a manufacturer of linear motion control solutions, has introduced an“enhanced synchronisation” option for its Electrak HD smart electric linear actuator. The new iteration of this ...

For one newly designed bottle cleansing packaging and sorting conveyor system, improper loading of linear actuators led to excessive downtime. The de-stacker is positioned at the forefront of the ...

Encoder feedback is now available on the vendor’s size 8 hybrid linear actuators. The encoder module incorporates a lensed LED light source and monolithic photodetector array with signal-shaping ...

This paper presents the modeling and motion controller design for a linear motor driven T-type gantry and worktable. The worktable motion, which is referred to as the x-axis, is considered ...

Abstract: The rising interest in energy efficiency for hydraulic systems directs the research towards electro-hydraulic drives, namely linear actuators (i.e., hydraulic cylinders) directly coupled to ...

FLUID POWER: Position feedback devices are commonly implemented in hydraulic applications for monitoring the performance accuracy of actuators and cylinders to improve operational efficiencies. The ...

A new Linear Rail System uses a precision leadscrew assembly to provide controlled positioning along the axis of a robust linear slide A new Linear Rail System uses a precision leadscrew assembly to ...
