Bearing lubricant decreases the friction between bearing balls or rollers and the raceway. Left unchecked, this friction can generate heat that causes premature part degradation or breakage. Improper...

HIWIN's engineering team addresses the importance of partnering with suppliers that have the quality components and expertise in the various aspects of single- and multi-axis stage development....

This paper is an overview of the different types of linear motors available, including their principles of operation, history of development of permanent magnets, design methods for linear motors and...

Cartesian robots move according to Cartesian coordinate geometry in one-, two-, or three-dimensional space. These robots move along one to three linear axes that intersect at the point of origin at...

This paper describes an innovative air-bearing XY motion system with active vibration control for applications where even slight vibrations are intolerable....
