Maintaining gearbox centre distance minimises acoustic noise in micro motion applications

25th October 2022

Simulation shows that the problem of acoustic noise in micro motion gearbox design can be reduced by removing transmission error. Optimised gearbox design ensuring close manufacturing tolerances can achieve this. As wider factors surrounding gearbox integration can also impact noise levels, it’s useful to partner with a motion solution manufacturer that takes a holistic approach to application design.

Intelligent prosthetics increase mobility through miniature motion control

20th July 2022

While prosthetic legs enhance mobility for amputees, standard prostheses are passive, meaning that they are unable to provide the required feedback to enhance motor skills including balance. Now, microprocessors combined with miniature motion control technology are enabling dynamic prosthetic control, helping to emulate the human reflex loop and improve the wearer’s gait cycle.
