Here's how manufacturers and distribution centers can build automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) with carefully ...

PI introduces configurable modular precision linear stage family with thousands of possible configurations. SHREWSBURY, Mass.

Industrial applications require high transmission rates, more bandwidth and ways to integrate motion control with other applications. CAN open language enables plug ...

What just happened? 3D printing has become very good at making shapes, but making complex machines with moving parts is where most printers tap out. MIT researchers, however, have developed a ...

The turbocharger is more popular than ever, appearing on the Ford Mustang, the Dodge Charger, and the Chevrolet Corvette.

Both image photodetector arrays and retinas are pixelated sensors that dynamically extract various features from the visual scene—e.g., color, brightness, and contrast—before transmitting electrical ...

Engineers at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) have reached a critical milestone in the ...

Abstract: Both high voltage (HV) and mechanical loads will be applied simultaneously to the insulation rod during operation, and their effects on the insulation degradation characteristics should be ...

Abstract: The piezoelectric actuator exhibits both linear dynamics of creep and vibration and nonlinear dynamics of hysteresis. The model identification from experiments can compensate uncertainties ...

MIT researchers have built a 3D-printing platform that can fabricate fully functional electric machines in a single process, potentially allowing factories to produce replacement motors on-site within ...
