MUNICH, Germany – Festo has launched the ERMB modules of electromechanical rotary actuators that are capable of accommodating literally any desired angle of rotation – including a full 360 degrees and ...

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 ...

Here's how manufacturers and distribution centers can build automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) with carefully orchestrated motion control.

For a motor to power machinery, the local motion has to be translated into the ordered movement of other parts of the system. Organic chemists have now produced a light driven rotary motor in which ...

Motion-control or industrial automation system designers who need to measure the rotation of shafts or other mechanical components can typically choose from two types of rotary encoders. Encoders ...

PI announces the launch of the V-625 direct drive rotation stage, a high-performance rotary positioning and scanning stage designed for applications requiring smooth, high-precision rotary motion.

Precision Ring Drives from the Nexen Group Inc, Vadnais Heights, Minn., combine a rolling pinion with a precision-grade bearing and gearhead. There are four drives in the series with ratios ranging ...
