440C Stainless Steel Miniature Linear Rail
Try to figure out the definition of Linear Rail from Wikipedia as always did, but it's Not that fortune like Linear Motor. Well,it won't be wrong to call it linear guide or guide rail. HIWIN call it linear guideway, linear guide called by MiSUMi. In China mainland HIWIN has the most business of linear guideways than other brands. Because the universality in automation application, the miniature li...
To upgrade your 3D Printer with Linear Rails
Rotary motion using stepper motor is very popular in kinds of applications and in machines Not only 3D Printer, but also CNC Machines, Scientific Instruments, Medical or Analytic Equipment and Surface Mount Equipment, etc. Linear motion is usually converted from rotary motion by using pulley and belt, lead screw or ball screw, pinion and gear, linear shaft and bearing, linear rails and linear modu...
The utility of Brushless DC Motor
Nowadays air conditioner and gas water heater have become the necessities in people’s life. As we all know, the motor that was used in air conditioner and water heater earlier is AC induction motor. First, this motor has obvious shortcomings, low efficiency, high energy consumption, which is clearly contrary to the trendy of today's low-carbon environmental protection, energy saving and carbon emi...

3D Printer Power Supply
In usual, the power supply unit people talking about is the piece of hardware that's used to convert the power provided from the outlet into usable power for the many parts inside the computer case. It converts the alternating current (AC) into a continuous form of power that the computer components need in order to run steady, called direct current (DC). It also regulates overheating by controlli...

MOSFET Repair on RAMPS Board why and how
Firstly thanks to Contemporary Maker Rob Schwartz, his blog explain why and how to repair the MOSFET on Ramps 1.4 Board "When I first got the RAMPS 1.4 board, I wondered why the power MOSFETs for the hotends and the heated bed had no heatsinks. However, after connecting the RAMPS board to the printer, they seemed to work just fine. I soon forgot about the problem entirely... but that was the wrong...
Stepper Motor Linear Actuator
Last week we talked about the stepper motor, and this week we want to go further about the topic which will be stepper motor linear actuator or linear stepper motor. There are three types of linear stepper motors and we are talking about the integrated stepper motor linear actuators, they are External Drive, Non-captive and Captive Linear Steppers. Haydon Kerk a linear motion specialist provide wo...
