A fader device includes a plurality of shafts disposed parallel to each other, and a moving body attached to the plurality of shafts and movable in a longitudinal direction of the plurality of shafts. At least one of the plurality of shafts is a screw shaft with a male thread on an outer periphery thereof and is configured to be rotatable about an axis extending along the longitudinal direction. At least one of the plurality of shafts other than the screw shaft is a guide shaft that guides the moving body in the longitudinal direction. The moving body meshes with the male thread to move in the longitudinal direction as the screw shaft rotates.

A slide screw tuner control mechanism uses linear actuator movement with numerically controlled PITCH (number of threads per inch). The PITCH is adjustable using the concept of a differential screw, implemented by independent control of the rotation of the actuator built-in ACME screw, yielding a numerically controllable overall effective PITCH. Tuner calibration and tuning can use dynamically adjustable horizontal movement increments increasing tuning speed at low frequencies without loss of fine-tuning resolution at high frequencies.

The present disclosure discloses a fastener assembly. The assembly comprises a stud having a head portion connectable to an actuator, and a shank extending from the head portion. At least a portion of the shank comprises threads, and an insulating material extends on the threads. A resistor module comprising one or more resistors is configured on the insulating material. One end of the one or more resistors is connectable to a power source, and other end of the one or more resistors is connectable to the power source through a nut engageable with the threads. A movement of the stud relative to the nut varies net resistance across the resistor module. The variation of net resistance across the resistor module may be used to determine position of the nut relative to the stud.
