Ultra-precise linear shaft motors with high performance and small footprint

Ultra-precise linear shaft motors with high performance and small footprint

The linear shaft motor is a direct drive consisting of a shaft with rare earth permanent magnets (iron-boron neodymium alloy) and a runner made of cylindrical coil windings. The shaft provides the magnetic fields on which the runner acts. The driver assembly, in combination with the amplifier and control electronics, generates the power for the motor. A small current generates a great force. In this article, the mechatronics specialist Dynetics describes the further advantages of linear shaft...
