About Lin Engineering
Lin Engineering supplies hybrid and permanent-magnet steppers, brushless motors, slotless and frameless variants, and motor-driven linear actuators. Customers can choose standard frame sizes and adapt windings, shafts, leadscrews, encoders, gearboxes or harnesses to a mechanism. The company markets its products for robotics and autonomous vehicles alongside aerospace, medical and industrial machines.
Its current site presents US-based engineering and manufacturing, with assembly configured from standard parts for faster customization. The Morgan Hill operation also offers application support and drawings for OEM integration. The profile describes the motion components it makes, not any finished robot or autonomous vehicle.
