Abstract
Motion control apparatus (A) includes a direct coupled torque motor (54) slideably receiving an output (50) without other types of torque transmission devices between the output (50) and the motor (54) and between the output (50) and a pinion (7) in direct gearing engagement with an annular gear (44) connected to a second race (32) of a bearing (26) intermediate an annular mounting plate (38) and a dial plate (40). The second race (32) is a single, non-separable piece having L-shaped cross sections to define a mounting pilot for the annular gear (44). The motor (54) is secured to a mount plate (58) having an integral annular spacer (60) extending through a mounting tab (16) and secured to a mount ring (62) adjustably connected to the mounting tab (16) opposite to the mount plate (58).
