Advances in motor design have allowed different types of robots to both specialize for industrial functions and converge in precision.

Linear motors are very quick and precise for positioning, but are also capable of slow, constant-traverse speed for machine heads and slides, as well as tool and part-handling systems. A variety of ...

Researchers at Philips Applied Technologies have developed an innovative technique that allows standard linear motors to simultaneously provide movement along two axes rather than along a single axis.

A line of Nippon Pulse’s linear shaft motors that features analog Hall effect sensors to enable closed-loop positioning without a linear encoder. Linear motors can be described as uncurled 3-phase ...

In industrial applications requiring high levels of precision, the position encoder impacts the velocity control and positioning of linear motors and results in quiet motor operation with less heat ...

Since the beginning of the coronavirus crisis at the latest, the pharmaceutical industry and laboratories have been under pressure to realize the highest possible levels of automation. Necessary here ...

The Accretech Surfcom 1900SD/DX surface/ contourmeasuring device uses a linear motor with a noncontact drive and simple structure (no lead screw or gear box) for stable, vibration-free operation over ...

As an electromechanical actuator, symmetric-actuating devices are often used in the fields where symmetrical motion, drive, and control are required, such as grasping or scissoring operations, and ...

Improvement in the design of medical equipment for better-streamlined functionality and performance is influenced by a number of critical factors. The research, design, modeling, testing, prototyping, ...

V-738 XY-stages are motorized linear stages driven by linear motors and used in many precision motion and laser machining industrial applications. The XY stage shown above is driven by linear motors ...
