Abstract

Machine builders often use mechanical solutions to translate a rotation motion into linear motion, and to synchronize several axes with one another, or with other moving parts. Higher production speeds are usually obtained by faster machine cycles, but mechanical limitations are increasingly leading machine builders to use electronic camming and gearing.
