Linear Solenoids

(132 companies)
Linear solenoids convert electrical energy into mechanical power via a plunger with an axial stroke in either a push or pull action.

Linear Shafts

(92 companies)
Linear shafts are elongated, rod-shaped devices that provide linear or rotary motion for power transmission applications.

Linear Bearings

(330 companies)
Linear bearings are used in applications where a component needs to be moved along a straight line with high accuracy.

Linear Bearing Rails

(214 companies)
Linear guides and rails provide a smooth, precision, guiding surface on which the rolling element of a linear bearing rides.

Linear Polarizers

(37 companies)
Linear polarizers transmit light waves along one axis and absorb them along the other. The transmitting and absorbing axes of linear polarization are oriented at 90 degrees to each other.
Eddy current linear encoders detect the distance from a target by using magnetic fields generated by a reference and sensing coils.
Capacitive linear position sensors are devices that sense position / displacement using capacitance technology.

Linear Limit Switches

(172 companies)
Linear limit switches are electromechanical devices that require physical contact between a target object and switch activator to make the contacts change state.
Integrated circuit (IC) linear voltage regulators use voltage-controlled sources to force a fixed voltage to appear at their output terminal.

Optical Linear Encoders

(50 companies)
Optical linear encoders use fiber optic technology to sense position and displacement.

Linear Power Supplies

(167 companies)
Linear power supplies accept AC inputs and provide one or more DC outputs for a wide variety of computer and industrial applications. They use an active element (normally a power transistor) operating in its linear region to generate a desired voltage.
Linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) linear position sensors have a series of inductors in a hollow cylindrical shaft and a solid cylindrical core. These devices produce an electrical output proportional to the position of the core
Inductive linear position sensors and switches are noncontact devices that determine an object's coordinates (linear or angular) with respect to a reference.
Magnetoresistive linear position sensors and switches have a linear resistance output signal representing the distance an object is from a reference point.
Shock absorbers, linear dampers, and dashpots provide motion damping in linear applications. They frequently incorporate fluid dampening, and can include mechanical or elastomeric elements.
