Tolomatic’s John Fenske and Mason Cousins weigh in on how the industry is repositioning as electrification, systems engineering and mechatronic integration inform their approach to motion systems and ...

Rotary motor motion is usually converted to linear through rack and pinion sets, belts and pulleys, and other mechanical linkages. These are effective but limited systems. In contrast, integrated ...

PI, a global leader in precision motion control and nanopositioning, offers a broad range of piezo ceramic linear actuators ...

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.

The MLA (motorized linear actuator) and MEA (motorized electric actuator) series represent a new generation of compact linear motion solutions. Each actuator combines a high-performance stepper or ...

Integrated actuators incorporating more advanced controls and broader network connectivity options are finding their niche in applications where the simplicity of an all-in-one, actuator-motor-control ...

Essentially, a guide wheel is a ball bearing that has a special shaped outer race. The inner and outer races of ball bearings are a framework with a groove for the balls to rest in. Burke explained ...
