In the early days of 3D printers, most builds used smooth rods and bearings that rode on them. But these days, printers are shipping with either V-slot extrusions with Delrin wheels or linear rails.

Here’s an interesting experiment that attempts to measure the quality of a linear rail by using a form of visual odometry, accomplished by mounting a camera on the rail and analyzing the video with ...

Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions, a premier manufacturer of engineered linear motion products, offers customers the ability to configure and download CAD models of the entire line of Kerk® RGS® linear ...

Three new sizes of BGS linear rail systems for brushless linear DC motors (BLDCs) were added to the Haydon-Kerk 24-Hour Express Store. The single- or double-stacked BGS04, BGS06, and BGS08 linear ...

The BGS04 linear-rail system handles high moment loads. Its roll, pitch, and yaw-moment load capability lets it maintain tight accuracy and repeatability, even for applications requiring cantilevered ...

This system combines many of Haydon Kerk's patented motion technologies into a single integrated system. The RGS® brand linear rail will come preassembled with the IDEA™ programmable actuator, greatly ...
