We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Rotary Motors",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Rotary actuator suits industrial positioning from
Inmoco, which we summarised at the time by saying "Tritex rotary actuators combine a brushless servomotor, servo amplifier and position controller in a single industrial-grade enclosure".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Slim motor offers high acceleration from
Copley Controls Corp: "Copley Motion Systems' STB11 motors provide ten times the speed and ten times the life of ballscrew actuators".
In December 2005, we covered the news from Servotechnic
concerning its Haydon Z26000
- take a look at Metric strokes added to actuators
which says: "Servotechnic announces three metric strokes of 18, 25 and 31mm for the Haydon Z26000 captive linear actuators".
Take a look also at the news release from Renishaw, Encoder system is vital part of antenna production,
as well as Linear actuator extends to 25mm from Servotechnic,
and Custom stepper is as flat as a pancake from Servotechnic.
