10 Key Characters About How to Choose a Linear Actuator
1. Assessment When evaluating where the actuator will be installed, it’s crucial to determine the type of motion required. For instance, the motion needed to open and close a door or valve differs from that required to activate a process on a machine. Actuators are designed to produce eith...Read more -
Reducing Design Time for Linear Motion Systems
Reducing design time is critical in engineering because the result is lower costs and faster time to market. Design time often includes a number of non-value-added activities such as re-design, over-design, or scope creep that can be minimized by thoroughly understanding all of the application c...Read more -
How to Select the Right Linear Motion System for Your Application Project
Let’s talk about linear actuators. We know that is not always easy to figure out what linear motion system is going to be the best fit for custom application, but to make it easier we are going to separate linear motion system in to three categories. Screw linear guide 1. LEAD SCREW L...Read more -

Industrial Applications of Linear Motion System
1. Semiconductors and Precision Electronics This is where ironless linear motion drives dominate, offering cog-free, ultra-smooth motion critical for cleanroom environments. Unmatched repeatability and stability Zero contamination risk (non-contact drive systems) Compact system architecture for...Read more -
5 Types of Common Linear Motion Technologies
Linear Motors These motors generate force directly along a linear path, using electromagnetic fields instead of mechanical contact. 1. Ironless Linear Motor The ironless linear motor is built for applications where ultra-smooth, cog-free motion is a must. With no iron in the moving coil, this mo...Read more -
Operating Principle and Core Architecture of Linear Motion Systems
How Linear Motion Works What is linear motion, really? It’s the controlled movement of an object in a straight line with no curves, no compromises. In the context of modern engineering, linear motion represents precision, power, and performance without rotational conversion. This is not just phy...Read more -
What is Linear Motion and When Should You Choose Linear Over Rotary?
Linear motion refers to the movement of an object or component along a straight path, a concept that lies at the core of countless automation systems today. From CNC machines and robotic arms to advanced medical devices and semiconductor production lines, linear motion systems enable fast, preci...Read more -
How to Select Right Actuator for Linear Motion Application
There are important factors one should consider when selecting a lead screw for a given task. These important factors are: a. Thrust This is the force needed to move the screw and its load. There are two types of thrust; peak thrust – takes place during acceleration and lasts a short for a brie...Read more -
What Are The Different Types of Linear Motion System?
In classical physics, four basic types of motion are defined as linear, rotary, reciprocating and oscillating. When these are applied to mechanical devices, this natural physical behaviour transforms motion into force. This force or power is then used to create some form of output motion, which ...Read more -
How to Choose the Right Type of Actuator: Open, Semi-closed or Built-in?
When selecting a linear actuator for your automation project, one of the most important decisions is choosing the right housing design: open, semi-closed, or built-in. Each structure offers different levels of protection, space efficiency and application suitability. This guide wil help you unde...Read more -
Frequently Asked Questions About the Linear Motion Systems
Q: What are the main components of a linear motion system? A: A basic linear motion system starts with a structural support, which can either be integrated into the frame of the machine, or it can consist of a separate structure such as an extrusion or a machined aluminum plate. A linear bearing...Read more
