From Concept to Commissioning: How Custom Motion Solutions Reduce Total System Cost

Custom motion solutions reduce total system cost by engineering performance, reliability, and efficiency into automation projects from the start. By simplifying mechanical design, optimizing real-world operation, and improving commissioning and uptime, manufacturers can lower total cost of ownership far beyond initial component price.

What Engineers Need to Get Right About Load Ratings in Linear Motion Applications

Load ratings look precise in a catalog — but in real-world linear motion systems, assumptions about static, dynamic and moment loads can quietly undermine performance. This article explores where engineers often misinterpret load ratings, how real operating conditions distort calculated forces, and what it takes to right-size guides and ball screws for long-term reliability.
