We look at how the raw material, processing, and final form of the product produced by the system influences the basic layout of the system. “Round” has lots of benefits, including volumetric efficiency and rotational symmetry, but the way the material is processed suggests a different footprint for this application.

What is precision engineering? What fundamental difference sets it apart from “traditional” mechanical engineering, and how can that understanding help make your precision design a success?

Designing a successful precision machine or instrument depends on understanding accuracy, repeatability, and resolution – and especially the limiting relationship between accuracy and repeatability.
Read MoreKinematic mount design can be complicated. But it doesn’t have to be. This visual how-to guide highlights the decisions, criteria, and calculations involved in designing a robust, highly repeatable kinematic mount. Color-coding...
