The L2018 mini linear actuator from Nanotec Electronic is now available with linear slide. The L2018 mini linear actuator from Nanotec Electronic is now available with linear slide. This model is ...

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 ...

Compact linear translation stage family combines speed, precision, versatility, new from PI. With a footprint of just 80x80mm for the 40mm version, the V-141 is ideal for compact integration in OEM ...

Moticont's brushless miniature DC linear voice coil motor is built with haptic feedback efficiency for medical/surgical instruments, vibration damping, laser machining, packaging, wafer handling, and ...

We’ve seen plenty of motor projects, but [Jeremy]’s DIY Tubular Linear Motor is a really neat variety of stepper motor in a format we certainly don’t see every day. It started as a design experiment ...

Machine and robot builders recognize linear motor benefits, but some are reluctant to integrate the components into design because of incomplete understanding of the technology. Here we overcome that ...

Size plays a key role in miniaturization and automation, where smaller is usually better. Conventional electromagnetic motors have certain restrictions when it comes to reducing dimensions while ...

HOZO has announced the upcoming Kickstarter launch of NeoSander, a next-generation palm-sized detail sanding tool engineered for evolved makers who demand precision, control, and versatility in ...

Pneumatic and hydraulic linear actuators operate on pressure differentials; electromechanical actuators are either linear motors or rotary types. Other differences abound. Mark Lemire, Product manager ...
