Linear motion is central to many moving machines, and the direct-drive nature of linear motors can simplify overall machine design in these applications. Other benefits include improved stiffness, ...

PI introduces configurable modular precision linear stage family with thousands of possible configurations. SHREWSBURY, Mass.

When designing for linear motion applications, it's often better to choose a linear motor over a rotary servomotor and rotary-to-linear conversion components. When designing for linear motion ...

With its Hunstable Electric Turbine, Linear Labs promises three times the torque, twice the power and a 10% increase in range in an electric vehicle over a typical permanent magnet motor. One problem ...

In terms of bandwidth, linear motors provide high performance in applications involving rapid short-distance increments. This is particularly true for repetitive X-Y positioning systems, where the ...

The modulating linear motors with integrated safety provide varying gas flow control instead of straight on-off control. By incorporating the device into furnaces and other types of gas-burning ...

Beckhoff’s AL8000 linear motors can now deliver greater accuracy and synchronization with the company’s new TwinCAT Cogging Compensation software. According to Beckhoff, this software enables linear ...

MIT’s tool prints distinct materials to build a working motor ...

With the electric vehicle (EV) market heating up and due to become ever hotter, there’s a lot of focus on the key components that go into this major evolution of transportation technologies. Batteries ...

When most engineers hear the term motor they most-naturally think of rotating arrangements such as brushed DC, brushless DC, stepper, or variable-frequency prime movers. But a motor doesn’t have to be ...

Over on Hackaday.io we have a lot of people playing around with the possibilities presented by cheap printed circuit boards. Whether that means making a quadcopter from fiberglass or a speaker from ...
