Positioning units play a central role in mechanics and are indispensable for designers in many different applications. In this article, we look at how positioning units work, their different types and their applications.

Surface treatments are an important component in modern industrial manufacturing processes. They protect the surface of materials and components against wear, corrosion and other harmful influences. The choice of the right surface treatment depends heavily on the surface requirements.

Surface roughness and surface hardness are important properties that must be taken into account when selecting components. Although there are different methods for measuring the roughness or coarseness of a component surface, these measurements often have to be converted to a standard measure.

Damping materials are essential in mechanics and construction. They are used to dampen the impact of shocks and vibrations and to improve the operation of machines and systems. They can be used in different mechanical and technical applications due to their unique properties.

Linear guide systems are characterised in particular by a low friction running behaviour and the ability to absorb transverse forces without being heavily deformed. Linear ball bearings and linear bearings are used in guide systems where maximum precision, long service life and maintenance-free operation are important.

Shafts are an important part in the engineering industry as they connect different components. Different types of shaft are used in mechanical engineering, including linear shafts, rotary shafts, and rods. There are several factors to consider when selecting the best shaft for a specific application. These include the type of application, the performance requirements and the type of shaft that is best suited for the application. If you make the right choice, you can be sure that the machine will work efficiently and achieve the desired results.

Rotary shafts are an key element of modern mechanical engineering. Rotary shafts transmit rotational motions. They can be made of different materials, which are specifically selected depending on the application. Materials include stainless steel, rust-free steel and steel.

Chains and sprockets are important elements in the design and mechanics of machines and systems. They are indispensable for mechanical transmission of movement and force.

Linear motors, linear actuators, linear axes, and other components enable linear motion. Linear motors are specially designed motors that generate linear motion. They generate forces to move loads in a straight line.
