The second limitation is the life dispersion of machinery components. It is difficult to predict time-dependent failure modes because even they do not occur at the exact same operating intervals. Consider the life dispersion of mechanical gear couplings on process compressors. Both components are clearly subject to wear. If we conclude that their MTBF (mean-time between failure), or mean-time-between-reaching-of-detect-limit is 7.5 years, it is possible to have an early failure after 3 years and another... 

Therefore, encoders coupled to the mechanical gear advantages allow digital data to be generated for precise control of relative positions. 

The variable ERRORmj n represents the error in the position of the mandrel over an increment in TIME, in seconds. ERRORman is calculated by subtracting the actual pulses accumulated, PULSEman, from the desired number of pulses that would be generated under perfect control. The desired number of pulses for perfect control is determined by the set point speed, RPSman, revolutions per second and the mechanical gear reduction. The constant 15630 is the product of encoder counts per revolution and the thirty to one gear reduction of the mandrel. 

So far, we have discussed various self-assembly and templating mechanisms geared towards the synthesis of porous, ordered materials at different length scales. As was mentioned previously, hierarchically ordered materials that simultaneously exhibit order over all length scales are very attractive novel additions whose synthesis usually requires a combination of all of the techniques mentioned previously. Patterning of mesopores and macropores simultaneously achieves structures with order on several length scales. 

Servo press with linear motor drive system This press system is shown in Fig. 6c and could only be apphed to presses with small forces up to 100 kN, which can be used for micro-forming operations. As they omit all kinds of mechanical gears, the predefined path can be followed very exactly to within microns (see Wegener and Schepp 2000). 

Hydraulic and pneumatic motor drives may be configured to provide a range of outputs based on gearing mechanisms. Gearing provides multiturn and partial turn outputs. The addition of a stem nut system permits translation to linear operation. 

In double-beam instruments compensation was, with one or two exceptions, by the optical null method whereby a servomotor drove a comb into the reference beam to minimize the signal difference between it and the sample beam as it was attenuated to varying degrees by absorbance. Movement of the comb was mechanically geared to a pen, which thus recorded the spectrum as a trace on a moving chart.
