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

Struggling with complex linear motion? For designs where the center of mass can be located close to the centerline of the guide wheel, Radial Wheels become the ideal solution. Many industrial ...

Piezoelectricity—the characteristic of certain solid materials whereby electric charge accumulates internally and is released when the material is stressed—was discovered by Jaques and Pierre Curie in ...

Packaging, material handling, semiconductor fabrication, automotive assembly, linear motion, three-axis Cartesian robotics systems, LOSTPED, linear module, Bosch Rexroth Linear Motion and Assembly ...

Big, innovative breakthroughs often result in game-changing technologies. Smaller incremental improvements in essential material components can similarly lead to significant performance and efficiency ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

Beamline diagnostics are an essential part of any particle accelerator, used to measure and monitor the properties of the particle beam itself. Within these diagnostic systems, precise linear motion ...
