Replacing the ball screw with no-friction magnets, the Linear Servo (LS) series magnetic linear actuator delivers exceptional repeatability at ultra-high speeds.
And if you are looking to dramatically reduce your cycle time, the LS magnetic linear actuator can accelerate or decelerate at an extremely fast 3G – much faster than even an advanced ball screw linear actuator.
Scroll down to learn more about what the Linear Actuator can do for you…
The LS linear actuators achieve a maximum speed of 3000 mm/sec. Unlike ball screw linear actuators, there are no critical speeds with the LS. Therefore, operating speed does not drop – even in long stroke applications.
Able to accelerate or decelerate at up to 3G (29.4 m/sec2), the LS can dramatically reduce the cycle time for short distance travel.
The fully closed control, using a reflection-type optical linear encoder, ensures positioning repeatability on the order of ±10µm.
A stainless dust strip on top of the magnetic linear actuator prevents problems caused by the entry of foreign particles into the linear actuator, greatly reducing maintenance requirements.
The all-in-one controller combines a driver, control unit and power supply, so all you need to connect is a dedicated cable. The system will be up and running in quickly, without the need for time-consuming adjustments.
You can select the controller that’s right for YOUR application and budget – the advanced X-SEL® controller for easy control of multiple axes or the single-axis E-CON controller designed specifically for simple positioning applications.
The Linear Servo magnetic actuators come in two basic types: Large and Small.
Both the large and small magnetic linear actuators have a minimum service life of 10,000km.
(Service life is rated at maximum speed and maximum payload. Reducing either can significantly increase the service life.)
