Shaft material. A shaft used with a linear bearing should be made of steel that meets the ASTM-A-295, “Standard Specification for High-Carbon Ball and Roller Bearing Steel,” requirements.
However, dynamic motion generated by two identical linear shaft motors that receive the same control signal is inherently synchronous — so the parallel linear shaft motors act as one.
As the UK grain harvest gets under way, Case IH has revealed a refreshed cutting table with variable knife position and ...
With rack and pinion steering, the rotation of the pinion causes linear motion of the rack, which turns the vehicle's wheels left or right. Rack and pinion systems are a common component in railways.
Shaft bars are used in many linear, rotary and static applications. In this guide we only consider the product being used in a linear motion system. Motion control systems regulate and manage the ...
The cam is attached to a shaft, like this, and we can now use a crank handle to turn the shaft and cam round and round: the circular motion. Next, we have the follower that is guided by the slide.
BMG’s comprehensive range of IKO Nippon Thompson’s linear guides, runner blocks and associated products are suitable for use ...
Here is a two-part Navy training film from 1953 that describes the inner workings of mechanical fire control computers. It covers seven mechanisms: shafts, gears, cams, differentials, component ...
Linear, Rotary Motion Combined Into Actuator Oct. 8, 2008 A new linear/rotary dual-motion actuator has been designed to provide incremental rotational and linear movement of the output shaft.
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.
