Are you designing a mechanical system and don't want to or can't use an off-the-shelf solution? Then we have many of the components that you'll need: rotary and linear bearings and slides, ball screws, and couplers.
Or perhaps you don't need a motorized stage but want to precisely and manually control the position of your part? Check out our manual rotary and linear stages!
Bearings & Ball Screws
Bearings and ball screws are crucial components in mechanical motion systems. Bearings, typically made of high-strength materials, support and guide rotational or linear movement, reducing friction between moving parts. They are essential for ensuring smooth and efficient operation in various applications. Ball screws convert rotational motion into linear motion with high precision and efficiency.
Couplers
Flexible shaft couplers, torque limiters, and line shafts are vital for managing torque transmission in mechanical systems, covering a broad range from 0.05 to 160,000 Nm. Flexible shaft couplers accommodate misalignment between shafts, ensuring smooth and efficient power transfer while reducing mechanical stress. Torque limiters provide protection by preventing overloads, enhancing system safety and longevity. Line shafts connect distant machine components, maintaining precise alignment and synchronization.
Manual Rotary Stages
Precision manual rotary stages are essential for applications requiring manually controlled rotation or precise angular positioning. These stages offer high-resolution adjustments and smooth, accurate motion, making them ideal for optical systems, metrology, and laser alignment tasks. Designed with robust materials and fine-tuning capabilities, they provide reliable and repeatable performance. Their ergonomic design allows for easy operation, ensuring users can achieve the desired angular position with minimal effort.
Manual Linear Stages & Slides
Manual linear stages and slides are essential components in precision motion control, providing smooth and accurate guidance for manually operated movements or manual positioning tasks. These devices consist of a stationary base and a movable platform, which glides along the base with the help of precision bearings or slides. They are widely used in various fields such as microscopy, manufacturing, robotics, and research, where precise manual control of equipment is necessary.
Rack and Pinion Systems
Rack and pinion systems are fundamental mechanisms in mechanical engineering, designed to convert rotational motion into linear motion with precision and efficiency. These systems consist of a circular gear—known as the pinion—and a linear gear called the rack. When the pinion rotates, its teeth engage with those on the rack, causing the rack to move in a straight line. This interaction allows for precise control of linear movement, which is essential in various industrial applications such as CNC machines, automation, and robotics.
