What are linear induction motors?
An induction motor is one in which the current in the rotor is induced by the electromagnetic field in the stator, eliminating the use of magnets. A linear induction motor is a type of linear motor based on a rotary AC induction motor. Like permanent magnet linear motors (commonly designated as ironless and iron core types) […]
Electric actuators displace other motion options — including manual designs: A Motion Trends report
Today, electric actuators are easier than ever to specify and install. Value-add services from component suppliers as well as application-specific actuator product lines (especially for battery-powered designs in mobile equipment and consumer use) eliminate many integration tasks for OEMs and end users. These are trends supported in part by a movement Design World has tracked […]
New technologies and applications for linear motors: A Motion Trends report
Depending on the exact technology, typical linear motors can deliver unlimited strokes and (with feedback) accuracies to ±1 μm/100 mm. Speeds range from inches to 1,000s of inches per second. Semiconductor manufacture and assembly as well as machine-tool applications continue to account for the majority of linear-motor applications. However, increased focus on efficiency is spurring […]
Moticont high-resolution electric cylinders include integrated encoder
SDLM-025-070-01-01 and SDLM-025-070-01-05 direct drive linear motors from Moticont, also known as electric cylinders, have built-in encoders, and feature high acceleration, high speed, high resolution, zero backlash, and zero cogging. These compact direct-drive linear motors with quiet linear plain bearings are just 1.00 in. (25.4 mm) in diameter and 2.75 in (69.9 mm) long. Protected […]
Dunkermotoren launches compact linear motor with double peak force
With the SA/SC 38 series, Dunkermotoren presents a new modular concept for tubular linear direct drives. The highly dynamic three-phase linear motors deliver up to 3,690 N and accelerate at over 200 m/sec2. The modular design is currently available as actuator version SA (with maintenance-free plain bearing system) and component version SC (for modules). If […]
ANCA Motion expands high-performance tubular linear motor line
The LinX M-series linear motor features an integrated position sensor with 10 um of resolution, eliminating the need for an external encoder, simplifying system design and reducing overall cost. Modular design of the heatsink and end-caps enables flexibility in system integration. The motor produces a continuous force range of 90 to 160 N and a […]
What is a direct drive motor?
A direct drive motor is any motor — rotary or linear — in which the load is connected directly to the motor, without mechanical transmission elements such as gearboxes or belt and pulley systems. In other words, the motor directly drives the load. Direct drive rotary motors Rotary direct drive motors are often referred to […]
Low-profile linear stepper motor stage from H2W Technologies
The LSS-016-04-006-01A-ME is one of a revolutionary new series of low-profile linear stepper motor positioning stages that integrates an absolute linear encoder and a single-axis linear stepper motor stage. This enables the linear stepper motor stage to operate as a 2-phase brushless linear motor when coupled with motion control electronics provided by H2W Technologies (H2W). […]
