Design engineers considering linear guides often struggle with which basic shape to choose: round or square. Square or profile rails once cost significantly more than round because the former need ...

Design refinements boost performance of self-aligning ball bushing while maintaining their error-correcting nature.

Essentially, a guide wheel is a ball bearing that has a special shaped outer race. The inner and outer races of ball bearings are a framework with a groove for the balls to rest in. Burke explained ...

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.
