2. Linear-motion bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear-motion_bearing

   A linear-motion bearing or linear slide is a bearing designed to provide free motion in one direction. There are many different types of linear motion bearings.. Motorized linear slides such as machine slides, X-Y tables, roller tables and some dovetail slides are bearings moved by drive mechanisms.

3. Slider-crank linkage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slider-crank_linkage

   An in-line crank slider is oriented in a way in which the pivot point of the crank is coincident with the axis of the linear movement. The follower arm, which is the link that connects the crank arm to the slider, connects to a pin in the center of sliding object. This pin is considered to be on the linear movement axis.

4. Backlash (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backlash_(engineering)

   The linear sliding axes (machine slides) of machine tools are an example application. Most machine slides for many decades, and many even today, have been simple (but accurate) cast-iron linear bearing surfaces, such as a dovetail- or box-slide, with an Acme leadscrew drive. With just a simple nut, some backlash is inevitable.

5. X-Y table - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-Y_Table

   XY tables are flat surfaces mounted on ball bearing slides or roller slides with multiple linear bases and are composed of forcers and platens. [1] The forcer glides over the platen on frictionless air bearings and moves continuously in a linear motion across the platen. To create multiple axis, linear bases are often stacked on top of one ...

6. Linear stage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_stage

   Zaber motorized linear stage. A linear stage or translation stage is a component of a precise motion system used to restrict an object to a single axis of motion. The term linear slide is often used interchangeably with "linear stage", though technically "linear slide" refers to a linear motion bearing, which is only a component of a linear stage.

7. Plain bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plain_bearing

   Therefore, the part of the shaft in contact with the bearing slides over the bearing surface. The simplest example of a plain bearing is a shaft rotating in a hole. A simple linear bearing can be a pair of flat surfaces designed to allow motion; e.g., a drawer and the slides it rests on [3] or the ways on the bed of a lathe.
