Computerized linear motion controllers, on the other hand, enable more precise control via a software interface. Computerized linear motion controllers are perfect for industrial and scientific ...

Linear motion process systems may not be the most prominent elements in most advanced technology equipment, and nor are they typically a top-of-mind concern for most users.

But if you’re designing a linear-motion system, you’ll have to consider structural support, guides, drives, seals, lubrication, and accessories between points A and B.

One of the most common motion applications in automated machinery is linear motion due to its precision capabilities. Guide wheels are often critical to the dependability of such systems, especially ...

Using Beckhoff’s TwinCAT Cogging Compensation software, AL8000 linear motors can increase machine synchronization and decrease lag rate without hardware changes.
