Rolling-ring drives are friction drives that convert the constant rotary motion of a plain shaft into a traversing action that moves an attached carriage. Used in positioning and reciprocating ...

Armed with even with the most-sophisticated motion controller, engineers can still find it difficult to attain precise linear motion unless the mechanical components are appropriately designed for the ...

Dive into the world of motion by exploring the similarities and differences between linear and rotational kinematics. In this video, we break down key concepts, equations, and relationships that ...

Insight on Diodes Inc.’s first automotive-compliant 3D linear Hall-effect sensor. How it allows for reliable and high-precision contactless rotary motion and proximity detection. Application targets ...

Stepper motor linear actuators (SMLAs) combine a stepper motor, precision lead screw and nut in one compact envelope, providing a highly configurable, customizable and robust system for linear motion.

Monitoring takes the form of sensors and intelligent devices connected to a digital processor. These monitored values are used for computing and then controlling some sort of real-world action. Many ...

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 ...
