Auburn, MA -- piezo motor specialist PI introduces the new M-272 linear actuator for automation applications based on a maintenance-free PILine® ultrasonic ceramic motor. PILine® piezo ceramic ...

AUBURN, Mass., June 24, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- For tasks requiring sub-micrometer precision — such as alignment, adjustment, or fine positioning — PI's M-235, L-220, and M-230 series linear ...

The new 5-in.-frame GSX Series actuator now comes with a highly efficient segmented motor-design stator called T-Lam. This design features high force in a small package as well as long life. The ...

Motion and positioning devices play an integral role in the life-science and medical engineering fields, fulfilling their many different requirements. The spectrum extends from simple low-energy drive ...

Traditional lead-screw and belt-drive positioners have relatively large moving parts, making fine repetitive motion difficult. They also suffer from high wear and tear due to friction, making them ...

The day where humans and robots collaborate in close proximity is becoming easier to envision. Emerging soft robots may help to ensure this can be done safely and in a way that syncs to human ...

SAE paper 790119 on "Helenoid Actuators" introduced a novel solenoid construction giving high armature accelerations. Another design has been conceived which operates at least as fast as the Helenoid ...

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 deliver reliable, high-performance motion.

There are many ways to make a linear actuator, a device for moving something is a straight line. Most of the easier to make ones use a conventional motor and a mechanical linkage such as a rack and ...
