The benefits – and drawbacks – of linear motors for dynamic applications
Linear motors can achieve high acceleration rates and long travel lengths with good thrust forces and extremely high positioning accuracies, while other drive mechanisms, such as belts, screws, or rack and pinions, must sacrifice at least one of these requirements in ord...Read more -
What is a Voice Coil Stage?
What is a Voice Coil Stage? Voice coil stages are usually direct-drive linear stages (rotary voice coils are also available) driven by an electromagnetic linear motor consisting of a moving coil winding and a fixed magnet (the opposite is also possible). By precisely con...Read more -
