 Optimising compact linear motion applications with mini motors

Optimising compact linear motion applications with mini motors

04/04/2022

To achieve maximum performance from a miniature linear motion application, it's vital to make sure the motor's specification meets the requirements. Efficiency, high power, optimised dimensions and acceleration are among the criteria for selection, to optimise demanding lead screw applications. Clémence Muron, Application Engineer at Portescap, explains how to make the right choice.

 The advantages of electric actuators

The advantages of electric actuators

04/04/2022

While some applications requiring the highest forces and longest strokes might need hydraulic actuation, in most cases, electromechanical actuator technology provides both machine builders and machine users with significant advantages. Here, Gerard Bush, INMOCO, compares electric and hydraulic actuator technology.
