# Industrial Specification: Linear Motion System

## 1. Technical Definition
A mechanical system designed to provide controlled linear movement along a single axis within an industrial setup.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.1-100 m/s linear velocity, 0.01-100 kN axial load**. Failure boundary: **Exceeds 120 m/s velocity or 110 kN axial load, or operates above 150°C for &gt;1000 hours**, Mechanism: **Bearing fatigue failure due to Hertzian contact stress exceeding 2.1 GPa, or polymer component degradation via Arrhenius thermal aging at &gt;150°C**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Harmonic Vibration Force Generation**:

> **Primary Equation**: $F_e = m \cdot r \cdot \omega^2 \sin(\omega t)$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Calculates centrifugal force for vibratory sifters/feeders.
