End of the Line: Effective Robot Types for Palletizing, Wrapping, and Labelling
The processes of palletizing, pallet wrapping, and labelling make out the last steps of a production line for most packaging applications, regardless of the product type. Based on the needs of manufacturers, this article presents the right solutions for each process - and highlights the challeng...Read more -
WHAT IS A LINEAR MOTOR – Ironcore and Ironless motor principle
Linear motors are a special class of synchronous brushless servo motors. They work like torque motors, but are opened up and rolled out flat. Through the electromagnetic interaction between a coil assembly (primary part) and a permanent magnet assembly (secondary part), the electrical energy is ...Read more -
WHAT IS A LINEAR MOTOR – DIRECT DRIVE ADVANTAGES
Why adopt linear motors? Reduced cost of ownership Direct coupling of the payload to the motor’s moving part eliminates the need for mechanical transmission elements such as leadscrews, timing belts, rack and pinion, and worm gear drives. Unlike brushed motors, there is no contact betwe...Read more -
What is a Linear Motor?
A linear motor is often described as a rotary motor, just cut up and rolled out so that instead of a rotating shaft creating torque, it’s a load moving linearly that creates force. Linear motors use magnetic levitation to move an object – this way it is not slowed down by friction and can actual...Read more -
The Top 7 Industrial Robots You Must Know
Industrial robots are automated machines that are used in manufacturing industries in the place of human beings. They are faster, more precise and can run for days, qualities that are behind their gradual rise in the manufacturing world. Industrial robots can be classified into 7 main categories...Read more -
Considerations for Assessing Robotics Requirements
This series of articles provides an explanation of each step in the molding process, as a pellet is transformed into a part. This article will focus on opening of the mold, the ejection of the part and the automation involved, whether the parts are dropped, vacuumed or picked out of the mold. Th...Read more -
Linear Motor Module: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
A linear motor can be thought of as a rotary servo motor unrolled and laid flat to produce fundamentally linear motion. A traditional linear actuator is a mechanical element that converts the turning motion of a rotary servo motor into straight-line travel. The two both offer linear motion but w...Read more -
Industrial Robots in Manufacturing Applications
Standard robot models are now mass-produced, making them more available to meet the ever-increasing demand. These robots are more straightforward, and more conducive to plug and play installation. Robots are changing the face of manufacturing. They are designed to move materials, as well as perf...Read more -
Assembly Robots: Speed Up Your Assembly Line Through Automation
Many products you use every day are made up of smaller components. These products require assembly to be functional. Traditionally, this process required human labor. Advances in robotic technology make assembly robots an option for manufacturers looking to optimize their production lines. A cha...Read more -

4 Types of Linear Motor Magnet Assembly
LINEAR MOTOR A linear motor is a direct driven electric motor that produces a linear force in a straight line and converts electrical energy into mechanical energy as linear motion without extra transfer mechanism. We can think of it as cutting a rotating motor from radial direction and laying ...Read more -
Where Do Linear Motors Make Sense?
Linear motors deliver superior output, so excel in medical equipment, industrial automation, packaging, and semiconductor manufacturing. What’s more, new linear motors address the cost, heat, and integration complexity of early versions. To review, linear motors include a coil (primary part or f...Read more
