Linear arc motors
This is a great article from Applimotion on linear arc motors. Linear arc motors are exactly what the name sounds like: linear motors shaped into an arc to provide rotational motion. They can provide a great replacement for rotary rack and pinion drives as they require less maintenance, have fewer parts, and are very quiet. That last point is a great plus for medical applications, where low noise is important for patient comfort.
