For a product to be assembled successfully, it’s essential to move the right parts, to the right place, in the right orientation, at the right time. Motion control technology makes that happen. Here’s a sampling of the latest technology.

There are many ways to linearly move an object from point A to point B on an assembly line. But, not all of them are designed to optimize speed, accuracy and repeatability while performing the task.

At the heart of some of the most complex automated assembly systems is one of the simplest motion control mechanisms: the cam.

Every retailer faces one major ongoing challenge: Showcase as many new products as possible on limited shelf space.
