To drive the coils, he used a pair of TB6612FNG stepper motor drivers, controlled by a Wemos D1 Mini. The housing was 3D printed mostly from PLA, but with a few bits done in PETG. This was for ...

It’s a small linear motor which [ligonapProduktion] built after seeing a very brief description of a commercially available version. The video after the break shows him testing the motor.

The EMALS is an electromagnetic catapult that relies upon a linear induction motor, rather than a traditional steam piston, to launch aircraft. The Ford-class aircraft carriers are the most expensive ...

One such element, the linear actuator, has emerged as a cornerstone in enabling controlled linear motion. […] ...

The unique PiezoWalk linear motor is non-magnetic and self clamping and provides sub-nanometer resolution. It can be integrated in actuators and linear translation stages as shown in the example above ...

Thomson Industries, Inc. has announced a significant upgrade to its stepper motor linear actuator (SMLA) online selector tool ...
