Hitec Commercial Solutions has unveiled its new LINEAR CAN Series of programmable linear actuators, designed to deliver ...

The stiffness of the actuator comes by way of six bearings to guide the arm, arranged in two tiers of three, each offset by 60 degrees. Along with some clever eccentric spacers to fine-tune ...

Students recently unveiled their invention of a robotic actuator -- the 'muscle' that converts energy into a robot's physical movement -- that has the ability to detect punctures or pressure, heal the ...

This simple STM setup utilises a piezoelectric actuator constructed by deliberately cutting a piezo speaker into four quadrants. With individual drive wires attached to the four quadrants.

Scientists have developed a robotic prosthetic hand that offers precision fingertip control. The ultra-light system offers ...

Today’s the big day! After months of toiling away in roundups, Actuator is finally graduating to your inbox as the latest addition to the TechCrunch newsletter family. I’ve written 40 of these ...

The only time you’re likely to hear about them is when a technician says an actuator needs to be replaced because a sunroof won’t close, the air conditioner doesn’t blow cold air or there ...

An ultra-light robotic prosthetic hand has been developed that enables both precision fingertip control and shape-adaptive ...
