‘Linear Slides’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Abssac torsion springs have linear spring rates from
Abssac, which we summarised at the time by saying "Abssac supplies unwind and wind-up torsion springs with linear spring rates. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release LPC-395F fanless PC features removable storage from
Stealth Computer Corporation: "Stealth has released the Model LPC-395F, a rugged, small-footprint, fanless computer with integrated removable storage. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Renishaw
- take a look at Rotary encoders provide 1nm and 2nm resolutions
which says: "Renishaw has introduced 1nm and 2nm resolution versions of its Tonic incremental encoder range.".
Take a look also at the news release from Variohm Eurosensor, Variohm unveils membrane potentiometer range,
as well as Micromech offers complete linear motion solution from Micromech,
and NSK bearings save costs for carbon-fibre producer from NSK UK.
