Rather than risk the cost and time for testing physical prototypes, though, the engineers investigated whether FEA software could provide adequate test results for FDA approval.

For the linear actuator that uses a screw, precision depends on the thread pitch. Inside a linear actuator, a nut is located in the center of the rotor. The screw engages this nut. For the screw to move axially, it must be constrained from rotating with the nut and rotor assembly by some means. More>> |
