James Bruton well known for his YouTube channel which sees him creating a wide variety of huge 3D printed robots and electronic devices has this week published a new video looking at building an ...

For one newly designed bottle cleansing packaging and sorting conveyor system, improper loading of linear actuators led to excessive downtime. The de-stacker is positioned at the forefront of the ...

A lot of projects require linear motion, but not all of them require high-accuracy linear slides and expensive ball screws. When just a little shove for a door or the ability to pop something up out ...

Most electromagnetic actuators are rotating motors, or some variation on the theme, like servos. However, it’s possible to do linear actuation with electomagnetics, too. [Adrian Perez] demonstrates ...

Moving a load in a straight line can be done using a variety of linear actuator devices employing both rod and rodless technologies. For rod-style actuation requiring lower amounts of force ...

It seems almost all industries use linear actuators in some way—perhaps to move inventory, products, or components, or to carry out manufacturing and assembly processes. They convert energy into a ...
