Motion Control – Linear Bearings Application

E. Longmeadow, MA – Motion Control – Linear Motion – LM76 Minuteman PTFE, Self-Lubricating motion control bearings take on some very stringent application roles, this is just one of them.



Forestville, CA, – — The motion control SMS12 Linear Stepper Motor stage is an ultra compact stage that provides up to 12 millimeters of linear motion. This stage offers near sub-micron resolution with the ability to accelerate a small load at 2G’s. A non-contact home sensor provides a reference position with repeatability of a couple microns. It was specifically developed for optical applications requiring both high precision and modest-speed positioning over a short to medium stroke.

Motion Control – Grippers are essential for robots engaged in pick-and-place applications. These electromechanical ‘hands’ allow objects to be grasped, manipulated and released, facilitating fast and precise interactions for low-mix, high-volume industrial processes. For the past three decades, pneumatic designs have been preferred by automation specialists – but this is changing. Electric grippers are proving a more modern solution, providing benefits in terms of efficiency, cost optimization, and space saving. At the heart of this advancement are miniature electric motors.
