Translating rotary motion to linear motion is a basic part of mechatronic design. Take a look at the nearest 3D-printer or CNC router — at least the Cartesian variety — and you’ll see some mechanism ...
Ball screw mechanisms represent a critical class of precision drive components that convert rotational motion into linear motion by utilising recirculating ball bearings. This conversion is achieved ...
Planetary roller screw mechanisms (PRSMs) are advanced mechanical devices that convert rotational motion into precise linear displacement. Their design capitalises on an array of rolling elements ...
