Sometimes you can search the internet to locate a suitable stepper control library, but you can’t find what you want, which leaves you with no other choice but to write your own custom code. Sometimes ...

Today, your average desktop 3D printer is a mess of belts, leadscrews, and pulleys. For his Hackaday Prize entry, [DeepSOIC] is eliminating them entirely. How’s he doing this? With a linear stepper ...

Linear motors are very quick and precise for positioning, but are also capable of slow, constant-traverse speed for machine heads and slides, as well as tool and part-handling systems. A variety of ...

Rotary motor motion is usually converted to linear through rack and pinion sets, belts and pulleys, and other mechanical linkages. These are effective but limited systems. In contrast, integrated ...

The HoneyComb Series linear stepper x-y positioning base features a novel honeycomb-structured composite material to reduce the cost of applying advanced linear motor technology. The base’s moving ...
