Angle encoders differ from standard duty rotary encoders in terms of accuracy as well as mechanical complexity and the number of counts per revolution. Angle encoders from Heidenhain come in a wide ...

The challenge that machine tool builders face when designing spindles for milling machines and lathes is selecting bearings with the optimal balance of speed, load-carrying capacity, stiffness, and ...

In mathematics, a bearing is the angle in degrees measured clockwise from north. Bearings are usually given as a three-figure bearing. For example, 30° clockwise from north is usually written as 030°.

Suppose you were in the middle of nowhere, and there were no signs or landmarks to help you find your way. Would you know how to find your way home? Someone might tell you via phone or radio to 'walk ...

Bearing deflection or yield is elastic deformation occurring between balls and raceways because of external loads. Deflection increases nonlinearly as external load increases. To increase bearing ...

Calculating the traverse that represents a parcel can benefit significantly from something that is not properly taught: The use of azimuths. What is an azimuth? It is a horizontal angle of a line, ...
