A new linear/rotary dual-motion actuator has been designed to provide incremental rotational and linear movement of the output shaft. The Size 14 actuator has two degrees of freedom of movement that ...

Rotary motor motion is usually converted to linear through rack and pinion sets, belts and pulleys, and other mechanical linkages. These are effective but limited systems. In contrast, integrated ...

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 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 ...

Featuring an innovative mechanism design that translates rotary to linear motion; a secondary CAM which provides up to 3 detent positions; and a PC Board supporting up to 3 LEDs and surface mount ...

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 ...

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 ...

Insight on Diodes Inc.’s first automotive-compliant 3D linear Hall-effect sensor. How it allows for reliable and high-precision contactless rotary motion and proximity detection. Application targets ...
