Tesseract Technologies, Formnext Awards finalist in the Rookie category, has developed affordable linear motors for ...

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 ...

Fort Worth, Texas-based startup “Linear Labs” develops a motor with a “Hunstable Electric Turbine (HET)” that can generate 2 to 5 times the torque of the same size as an existing motor doing. Linear ...

V-738 XY-stages are motorized linear stages driven by linear motors and used in many precision motion and laser machining industrial applications. The XY stage shown above is driven by linear motors ...

Anyone who uses engineered products is probably aware of “specmanship.” Simply put, specmanship is the art of manipulating theoretical and experimental data to cast a product in a better light. It ...

The Precision Motion Drive System from Amacoil/Uhing is a Model RG rolling ring linear drive with a motion controller for precise, linear motion. The fully programmable drive delivers 7 to 899 lb of ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. William covers motorbikes, E-bikes, cars, trucks and mobility tech. With the electric vehicle (EV) market heating up and due to ...

[Raul] built a cheap linear actuator out of a drawer slide and a surplus flatbed scanner. A few builds we’ve seen, like the PCB drill press or the horribly inefficient thermostat, used linear ...

The new Allen-Bradley LDAT-SeriesTM Integrated Linear Thruster from Rockwell Automation is the first commercially available moving magnet iron core linear motor actuator with a built-in linear guide ...
