Lead screws are commonly used to convert rotary motion into linear motion, and often provide actuation to a set of linear bearings. Download this Tech Talk for insight into different lead screw ...

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 ...

Motion control systems usually operate under rotary power, but as many as half are employed in linear applications. For many designers, this means selecting and specifying a rotary-to-linear converter ...

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 ...

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 ...

Measuring the position of a shaft with both linear and rotary motion is a challenging design problem that usually involves two sensors, one for each axes of motion, and two input ports. Three ...

Linear actuators convert the rotary motion of motors into linear motion output, possessing good support and load-bearing capabilities, mainly used in high-load scenarios with small motion rotation ...

Shanghai Kepler Robotics Co., Ltd. ("Kepler Robotics") today announced the successful completion of a major gait upgrade for its humanoid robot K2 "Bumblebee," and released China's first demonstration ...

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 ...
