MISUMI Automation helps us examine different examples of mechanisms that convert rotary motion to linear motion along with industry applications. A slider-crank mechanism is a typical design which ...

A cam is a rotating piece that converts rotary motion into reciprocating motion in the follower. Think of it like a spinning shape pushing something up and down. Eccentric/off centre cam: this is the ...

An actuator is a device that converts energy into a linear or rotary motion. Linear actuators extend or retract to push or pull something in a straight line or hold something in place. Rotary ...

They carry loads at speeds up to 70 inches per second and are designed for horizontal or vertical applications. Ideal for positioning operations in all types of machinery, Roh'lix is often a less ...

Track-roller linear guides and how they compare to other linear rails, slides, and ways to facilitate single and multi-axis linear motion — and the disparate ways these linear components integrate ...

RC servos are handy when you need to rotate something. You can even modify them to rotate continuously if that’s what you need. However, [Roger Rabbit] needed linear motion, but wanted the simple ...
