The easiest way to design a linear-motion system is to add components one by one. Then, step-by-step calculations relate input to power dissipated moving a load in a specific amount of time. Linear ...

Since the beginning of the coronavirus crisis at the latest, the pharmaceutical industry and laboratories have been under pressure to realize the highest possible levels of automation. Necessary here ...

Many applications using miniature brushed DC motors require motors to operate at more than one load point or through specific load cycles. Running a motor at usable load points requires a variable, ...

A linear motor is referred to as an electromagnetic device that generates motion along a straight path. The motor consists of a primary part known as the stator, which contains a series of ...

V-738 XY-stages are motorized linear stages driven by linear motors and used in many precision motion and laser machining industrial applications. The XY stage shown above is driven by linear motors ...

We’ve seen plenty of motor projects, but [Jeremy]’s DIY Tubular Linear Motor is a really neat variety of stepper motor in a format we certainly don’t see every day. It started as a design experiment ...

After only a few years of being completely immersed in the culture of motor drivers, it is very easy for me to take for granted the fact that most people are not familiar with electromechanical ...

This document written by Steve Bowling, Application Segments Engineer at Microchip Technology, discusses how motor works and describes the AC induction motor, variable-speed ACIM control, and FOC.
