Rotary-axial spindle design for large load precision machining applications

Normal stress electromagnetic actuators can be used as both an axial bearing and an in-feed motor in precision machine tool applications that require only millimeter-range axial stroke, such as silicon wafer face grinding or meso-machining. The rotary cutting stage may be integrated with the axially...
