This article will delve into the technical characteristics, market applications, future trends, and market performance of linear modules, in order to provide valuable references for relevant practitioners.
Linear module, also known as linear module, linear motion module or linear sliding table, is a type of motion unit that modularizes a linear motion platform. It achieves the ability to maintain high-precision linear motion under load by integrating multiple components, playing a role in precise positioning and efficient transmission in automation equipment. Linear modules have the characteristics of modularity, high precision, flexible integration, and customization, and can be applied across terminal industries. They are widely used in automated production scenarios in multiple industries such as electronics, semiconductors, automobiles, and mechanical manufacturing.
From a technical perspective, linear modules have significant advantages. On the one hand, it adopts rolling friction instead of sliding friction, with low friction force and small difference between dynamic and static friction forces. It is not easy to produce crawling phenomenon at low speeds, thus ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of motion. On the other hand, the linear module achieves linear motion directly through electromagnetic drive, eliminating intermediate transmission links, resulting in low losses and errors, and possessing excellent dynamic response, high efficiency, high precision, and high speed characteristics. These technological advantages make linear modules have broad application prospects in the manufacturing field.
In terms of market applications, linear modules have penetrated into multiple industries.
