For tasks requiring sub-micrometer precision – such as alignment, adjustment, or fine positioning – PI’s M-235, L-220, and M-230 series linear actuators offer reliable, high-performance motion. The ...

Inspired by the human eye, our biomedical engineering lab at Georgia Tech has designed an adaptive lens made of soft, light-responsive, tissuelike materials.

Abstract: Conventional stepping piezoelectric inchworm actuators typically require three piezoelectric stacks to achieve stepping motion, where their multi-drive-unit configuration increases control ...

Technology keeps getting smaller, smarter, and more precise, and so does the hardware behind it. Think about the tiny movements in a surgical tool or the exact positioning of a robotic arm. Those ...

Abstract: To mitigate the effects of hysteresis nonlinearity in piezoelectric ceramic actuators and enhance the tracking accuracy of piezoelectric micro-positioning platforms, a Hammerstein model is ...

One of the questions we receive quite regularly is where to find parts. Sooner or later, it’s likely you’ll need a part for your locomotive or rolling stock. It could be as simple as replacing ...

Big, innovative breakthroughs often result in game-changing technologies. Smaller incremental improvements in essential material components can similarly lead to significant performance and efficiency ...

Tolomatic has been building its portfolio of motion control solutions since 1954. The range includes electric linear actuators, pneumatic actuators and power transmission products for factory ...

On most occasions, if engineers just pick up the phone and discuss their application with a linear systems supplier, potential issues can usually be resolved and a suitable solution found. By talking ...

Actuators are rated for Class I, Div 1, Groups B, C, D and T3 hazardous environments and meet ATEX Directive 94/9/EC. October 27, 2010 - Exlar introduces EL100 explosion-proof linear actuators, rated ...
