H2W engineers have developed a compact Linear Induction Motor (LMAA-04-01) that can generate 10.6 lbs (47 N) of force at a 15 percent duty cycle. Operating at 208 VAC 3-phase 60 Hz, the synchronous velocity of this LIM is 160 in/sec (4 m/s). The LMAA-04-01 linear induction motor was designed for high speed operation; however, […]

Voice-coil positioning stage from H2W Technologies has dual feedback
The VCS20-020-CR-01-MC-F3K voice coil positioning stage has dual feedback capability. It can operate either under closed loop position control with force monitoring or closed loop force control with position monitoring. It uses H2W voice coil motor NCC20-18-020-1A to generate a continuous and peak force of 2.0 lb and 6.0 lb respectively — with total stroke length […]
Why use linear-induction motors — and could they drive Hyperloops one day?
Contributed FAQ courtesy H2W Technologies || Linear-induction motors work in applications that require rapid movement of large payloads. Linear-induction motors can output speeds to 1,800 in. per second (45 m/sec) or more … … and accelerations from 3 to 4 g. Standard LIMs can produce forces in the range of 720 lb (3,200 N) at a 3% duty cycle. […]
H2W linear stepper motor stages ideal for robotic applications
H2W (www.h2wtech.com) has launched a high performance linear stepper motor stages that travel at a maximum speed of 80 in/sec (two m/sec). These four and two phase linear steppers also deliver a maximum acceleration of 1G and stoke lengths of 144 in. (3.6 m), making them ideal for wire bonding, pick-and-place, parts transfer, inspection machines, […]
H2W’s Linear Induction Motor offers 2,900 N at 3% duty cycle
H2W (www.h2wtech.com) has introduced a new Linear Induction Motor (LMG-06-650-SSE) that can generate 2900 N at a three percent duty cycle. At 75 Hz, 400 VAC, the LIM offers a synchronous velocity of 675 in/sec (17 m/s). The LIM, which is intended for high speed operation, can also be utilized to produce static thrust by […]
Gold Plated Voice Coil Linear Position Stage
H2W’s custom gold plated, Voice Coil Linear Positioning Stage (VCS10-023-BS-01-MCS-R) was designed for a laser beam steering application. It has a stroke length of 1.0 in. (25 mm), a continuous force of 2 lbs (8.9 N) and a peak force of 6 lbs (26.7 N) and has a payload capacity of 2 lbs (.91 Kg) […]
