Low-friction, high-stiffness ball guides support on one rail (top) or two (bottom). The trade-offs for this performance are higher cost and more noise. The shortest path between two points is a ...

Linear bearings, also called linear guide systems, have been used in the U.S. since the early 1900s, most commonly in printing and textile industries. Tom Miller, Bearings business unit manager igus ...

Computer scientists have devised an innovative and elegantly concise algorithm that can efficiently solve systems of linear equations that are critical to such important computer applications as image ...

Most linear algebra courses start by considering how to solve a system of linear equations. \[ \begin{align} a_{0,0}x_0 + a_{0,1}x_0 + \cdots a_{0,n-1}x_0 & = b_0 ...

Grade school math students are likely familiar with teachers admonishing them not to just guess the answer to a problem. But a new proof establishes that, in fact, the right kind of guessing is ...

All in a very small footprint, this integrated packaging system forms, loads, and closes cartons thanks to its “racetrack” conveyor powered by servo linear motors. A servo linear conveying system ...
