Automation and mechanical motion systems have become integral to industries ranging from manufacturing to healthcare.

The DLR Mechatronic Linear Drive Cylinder is much more than a standard linear drive system. Equipped with a force sensor and two position sensors, the DLR linear drive extends to a position-impedance ...

The 3D Printed Mini Linear Actuator was developed as a way to turn a mini servo into a linear actuator, giving it more power in the process. A servo uses a potentiometer attached to the output ...

The linear actuator that moves the laser may not be the longest or the strongest, but it’s free, and we’ve seen plenty of little X-Y tables using CD drives. It’s these mechanisms that ...
