Abstract: A novel miniature linear motor actuator based on the Piezo Walk principle with a highly dynamic sweep mode combines long travel ranges to 20 mm and speeds to 10 mm/sec with sub-nanometer ...

Machine and robot builders recognize linear motor benefits, but some are reluctant to integrate the components into design because of incomplete understanding of the technology. Here we overcome that ...

A novel ceramic linear motor overcomes the travel / resolution / speed conundrum. Abstract: A novel ceramic linear motor overcomes the travel / resolution / speed conundrum with a highly dynamic ...

Dunkermotor, now part of AMETEK Precision Motion Control, has released its first ServoTube linear motors and actuators catalog with technical specifications and drawings that cover 1,346 standard ...

To fully appreciate the chief advantages of linear motors, it is helpful to compare them to ballscrews, another high-precision rotary-to-linear transmission system. Although typical ballscrews are ...
