Dive into the world of motion by exploring the similarities and differences between linear and rotational kinematics. In this video, we break down key concepts, equations, and relationships that ...

Design engineers considering linear guides often struggle with which basic shape to choose: round or square. Square or profile rails once cost significantly more than round because the former need ...

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 ...

Bearings do some of the heavy lifting in linear motion systems. Rather than defaulting to familiar choices by picking a size ...

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.
