Positioning accuracy is maintained during acceleration and deceleration, as well as for direction of travel reversals. The backlash is eliminated by using two pinions - one to drive the axis and the other to engage the opposite tooth flank and take up the backlash. Mechanically preloaded split-pinion drives utilize an axial spring to load one pinion half against the other. Electrically preloaded dual-pinion drives utilize two motors, each driving one pinion, which are loaded against each other by means of a special motor controller. ...More >>Haydon Switch & Instrument & Kerk Motion Products Merge, Form HaydonKerk Motion Solutions  Haydon Switch & Instrument, Inc., a worldwide leader in motor miniaturization, announces a merger with Kerk Motion Products, one of the world's largest manufacturers of non-ball lead screw, linear rails, and actuator systems.
