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 ...

Rotary motors are the workhorses of industry, but their job would only be half done were it not for ball screws, lead screws, belt drives, and rack-and-pinion systems. Without these devices, industry ...

Abstract: Mechanical linear actuators are employed extensively in various industrial applications where a linear motion is required. Typical linear mechanical actuators such as ball screws, chain ...

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 ...

A majority of automated systems using linearmotors today rely on a rotary servo motor coupled to a ball screw,belt-drive, rack-and-pinion, or even a cam-follower mechanism which convert therotary ...

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 ...

RC servos are handy when you need to rotate something. You can even modify them to rotate continuously if that’s what you need. However, [Roger Rabbit] needed linear motion, but wanted the simple ...
