Linear guides support and control precision linear travel on axes in myriad machine and robotics types for modern automation. In linear-motion applications that are especially demanding, linear ...

These encoders feature internal 12-bit (14-bit filtered) sine/digital converters that generate two position words, providing high-precision position data within a sine period. The iC-MU encoders ...

In automation, precision and reliability are no longer optional; they are requirements. For a wide variety of machine types and processes, linear guides provide that accuracy and high-capacity travel.

Barreling through the universe with incredible power and speed, galactic cosmic rays are a major source of radiation in space. But thanks to Earth’s strong magnetic field, these charged particles ...

Posital’s new generation of IXARC magnetic absolute rotary encoders are now available with BiSS C communications interfaces. IXARC encoders with the BiSS C interface feature Posital’s latest TMR ...

Our planet’s magnetosphere has seen dramatic shifts across its history—even total reversals—but this recent wrinkle doesn’t pose a threat to life Earth’s magnetic field surrounds the planet, with ...

New research shows that light’s magnetic field is far more influential than scientists once believed. The team found that this magnetic component significantly affects how light rotates as it passes ...

Geophysicists have modeled how Earth’s magnetic field could form even when its core was fully liquid. By removing the effects of viscosity in their simulation, they revealed a self-sustaining dynamo ...
