This simplifies both design and operation of the linear-motion system. Variable-pitch rolling-ring drives are used in reciprocating linear-motion applications such as ejecting, cutting, spraying ...

The term motion control is most often associated with the use of electrical servo drives—commonly called motion controllers—and associated servomotors to operate the equipment. Servos are connected ...

Even with the most-sophisticated motion controller, designers can still find it difficult to attain precise linear motion unless the mechanical components are appropriately designed ...
