  • Load and Speed Characteristics of an Actuator
    minute (RPM), gear ratio, and the amount of power supplied to the actuator, TiMOTION is able to control the load and speed capabilities of the actuator. These characteristics are all dependent upon each other in order to operate a quality and durable linear actuator.
  • What are Linear Actuators and How are they Sized?
    on the application. The basic components of linear actuators consist of a motor, set of gears, and a screw.
  • How to Select a Stepper Linear Actuator
    transmission mechanisms; this not only decreases the footprint of the motor, but also decreases the cost and effort of the inclusion of additional mechanical components like gears and belts. Here are seven key factors to consider when selecting a stepper linear actuator for your application.
  • Operating Principle of Inline Linear Actuators
    The electric linear actuator works by driving a pair of screw nuts after the motor is decelerated by the gear, converting the rotational motion of the screw nut into the linear motion of the telescopic rod. The operation of the linear motor is to complete the telescopic action by switching
  • How Electric Linear Actuators Improve Automation Results?
    VenturemfgcoActuators for Agriculture, Actuators for Wheelchairs, Electric Linear Actuator, Hospital Bed Actuator, Medical Actuatorsagriculture, electric linear actuators, food and beverage, medical. Linear actuators provide accurate motion control in diverse applications, such as test equipment
  • How Solenoid and Haptic Actuators are Transforming Automotive Safety Technologies
    or give a pedal vibration at the perfect time to shift gear if driving manually. Rather than taking away control, as with self-driving technologies, these technologies promise to make driving more fun. As drive-by-wire systems become more common, haptic systems may also. The space that is no longer
  • New Spins on Bearing Technology (.pdf)
    Nook Industries provides a complete selection of inch and metric Ball Screws, Roller Screws, Acme Screws, Lead Screws, End Bearing Supports, Precision Locknuts, Worm Gear Screw Jacks, Electric Actuators, HRC 60 Linear Shafting, Linear Bearings and Pillow Blocks to the Linear Motion Industry
  • A Finer Control of Linear Motion
    Linear actuators essentially generate force and motion through a straight line. In a typical mechanical system, a device's output shaft would provide linear motion using a rotary motor through gears, a belt and pulley, or other mechanical components. Trouble is, these components must be coupled
  • Automated Systems and IP Ratings
    Learn how the IP rating system is used to determine whether an actuator can be used in a certain environment or not. This article is geared towards beginners to automation and electric actuators, but contains useful information for anyone. This article reviews the system and the types of ingress
  • Automated (Robotic) Manual Transmissions
    Driven by the need to provide the functions of an automatic transmission, along with weight reduction and higher efficiency, many manufacturers are considering conversion of traditional manual transmissions to robotically position gears either via program control or an operator on demand. Actuators
  • Harmonic Drives ROI
    Harmonic Drive located in Peabody, MA is a leading manufacturer of precision gears, gearheads, servo actuators and motion control systems. The Pratt and Whitney Labmaster Universal has helped Harmonic Drive achieve the high precision they need. Accurate to 0.000002-inch (2 millionths of an inch
  • Screw Jack Technology Comparison
    Screw Jacks provide a proven and reliable method of actuation. They convert rotary motion into linear motion and are used to lift and position loads of all sizes. Each screw jack includes a gear box with rotational input, thrust bearings, and an output lifting screw. The chart below compares
  • Traditional solenoid valves are simple to install but may not be the right solution for long term reliability or high flow applications
    applications to provide vastly improved flow characteristics and consistent performance. Electric actuators consist of a motor, a gear train, cams and limit switches. The electric actuator requires two electrical input signals; one to open and another to close the valve. DynaQuip actuators are available
