RC servos are a common component in many robotics projects, but [Giovanni Leal] needed linear motion instead of the rotary actuation that servos normally offer. The 3D Printed Mini Linear Actuator was ...

Tolomatic has been building its portfolio of motion control solutions since 1954. The range includes electric linear actuators, pneumatic actuators and power transmission products for factory ...

PI (Physik Instrumente) L.P., a leading developer and manufacturer of precision motion systems and solutions, recently released the A-141 miniature air bearing linear positioner, the newest member of ...

The ABCs of PID control. Considerations for interfacing elements in the electrical circuit to accomplish those parts of the PID function for position control. Firmware code implementation.

Linear actuators are useful things, moving things in straight lines rather than annoying circles like so many motors. [Retsetman] recently built a linear servo actuator of his own design with accurate ...

Van Nuys, CA. The new SDLM-019-070-01-01 direct-drive linear motor is the latest addition to the series of zero backlash, zero cogging, high acceleration, high speed, high resolution, long-life linear ...
