MISUMI Automation helps us examine different examples of mechanisms that convert rotary motion to linear motion along with industry applications. A slider-crank mechanism is a typical design which ...

A new linear/rotary dual-motion actuator has been designed to provide incremental rotational and linear movement of the output shaft. The Size 14 actuator has two degrees of freedom of movement that ...

Translating rotary motion to linear motion is a basic part of mechatronic design. Take a look at the nearest 3D-printer or CNC router — at least the Cartesian variety — and you’ll see some mechanism ...

A cam is a simple mechanism that converts rotary motion (movement that goes round in a circle) into linear motion (movement in a straight line). These mechanisms can be found in car engines, printing ...

Size plays a key role in miniaturization and automation, where smaller is usually better. Conventional electromagnetic motors have certain restrictions when it comes to reducing dimensions while ...

Rotary actuators produce oscillating power by rotating an output shaft through a fixed arc. Rotary actuators produce oscillating power by rotating an output shaft through a fixed arc. They are compact ...
