Motion Control – Half Inch Stroke, and High Force-to-Size Ratio, Are Features of Miniature Voice Coil Servo Motor!
Motion Control – Miniature Voice Coil Motor!
Motion Control – Newly released from Moticont, the miniature GVCM-019-022-02 Linear Voice Coil Servo Motor, is just three-fourths of an inch (19.0 mm) in diameter and features a half inch (12.7 mm) stroke. This very small linear actuator, also referred to as an electric cylinder, features 8.4 ounces (2.3 N) of continuous force and 26.6 ounces (7.4 N) of peak force at a 10 percent duty cycle.
This non-commutated brushless servo motor features: High reliability, high speed, high acceleration/deceleration, and repeatability when used in a servo loop, and zero cogging. The compact housing and coil end combined are just 1.063 in. (27.0 mm) long and in the fully extended position the threaded shaft extends 0.786 in. (19.9 mm) beyond the face of the housing. The end of the shaft has a 2-56 UNC-2A thread 0.156 in. (4.0 mm) long for backlash free connections. Both the housing and coil ends of the actuator have two 4-40 UNC-2B threaded mounting holes on 0.313 (7.9 mm) bolt circles for easy integration into an application.
Non-commutated, these brushless miniature linear servo motors are clean, quiet and an ideal choice for: Haptic feedback and pipetting in medical devices, laser, machining and drilling, work holding and clamping, scanners and laser beam steering and filtering, optical focusing, dynamic vibration absorption, testing, sorting, and assembly. Additionally, they should be considered as low-cost replacements for pneumatic linear actuators.
Please contact Moticont, if a longer stroke or higher force is required for your application.

Motion Control – Ultra-High Precision, Compact, Low Cost, Optical Positioning System Features Zero Translation from Equipment Solutions!
Motion Control – Linear Focus Actuator
Optical Positioning System – Developed for precision optical positioning applications the LFA-1210 Linear Focus Actuator features a patented zero-translation tangential flexure for high speed travel. The clear aperture, 10 mm (0.394 in.) stroke length and standard 12 mm optics mount (or an optional DIN mount for use on microscopes) make this linear focus actuator ideal for: Optical focusing, scanning, interferometry, surface structure analysis, disk drive testing, autofocus systems, confocal microscopy, biotechnology, and semiconductor test equipment.
A frictionless, closed loop, non-contact sub-micron resolution linear displacement sensor having high bandwidth and low noise assures high responsiveness and ultra precision. Positioning resolution of the LFA-1210 actuator is 150 nm, repeatability is 200 nm (short term) and 50 ppm/1000 hr. (long term) with 2.2 lbs. continuous and 3.5 lbs. peak force.
The corresponding SCA814 Linear Servo Controller is also available from Equipment Solutions. It is a high performance single axis DC motor controller and amplifier that was developed for applications requiring high temporal and spatial servo precision.

Motion Control – Electric Cylinder from Moticont Has Zero Cogging and High Throughput!
Motion Control – Electric Cylinder Has Ze
Van Nuys, CA — Motion Control – Moticont has added another non-commutated linear actuator to its DDLM series of low cost actuators.
The 0.125 in. (3.2 mm) diameter shaft has an internal thread on each end, a total of length of 4.960 in (126.0 mm), and extends 1.585 in. (40.3 mm) past the mounting end of the actuator. The shaft extends thru the 3/8-32 UNF x 0.250 (6.4 mm) long threaded studs at each end of the housing which can be used for mounting the DDL-019-070-01 linear actuator. Long life plain linear bearings support the internal shaft at both end of the actuator.
This new DDLM-019-070-01 Linear Actuator can develop 10.1 oz (2.8 N) of continuous force and 32.1 oz (8.9 N) of peak force at 10% duty cycle. Having a stroke of 0.960 in. (24.4 mm), this clean, fully enclosed linear actuator, also referred to as an electric cylinder is ideal for use in critical medical applications. Measuring just 0.750 in. (19.1 mm) in. diameter with a housing length of 2.750 in. (44.5 mm) long, this zero cogging, bi-directional actuator is easily integrated into new and existing applications. Each end of the shaft is threaded for direct coupling of the actuator to the load resulting in zero backlash allowing for smooth, high speed positioning, and high acceleration/deceleration resulting in greater throughput.
Highly controllable force, stroke length and speed, low noise, and maintenance free, the DDLM-019-070-01 can be used with a position sensor and controller for the high repeatability and accuracy of a closed loop application.
For assistance in selecting the best linear actuator for a specific application such as: Life support in ventilators or respirators, reagent dispensing, sampling, sorting, or assembly, contact the Moticont sales team.

Motion Control – More Advantages With Temposonics R-Series V Profinet
Motion Control – Linear Sensors
Motion Control – Temposonics, the industry leader in magnetostrictive linear sensor technology, has announced a new generation of sensors focused on Industry 4.0, which features advanced machine monitoring and predictive maintenance capabilities to enhance industrial productivity.
The R-Series V PROFINET now transmits additional sensor status information, such as internal temperature, total operating hours, and distance traveled by magnets, directly to the controller via the PROFINET protocol. This allows for improved predictive maintenance and machine condition monitoring.
Updates include the encoder profile version V4.2, making the R-Series V PROFINET the first linear position sensor certified for this version. The MTS profile and corresponding description file have also been certified by PNO. The Temposonics profile enables easy parameter setting and simultaneous monitoring of switching points with position and velocity output, synchronized with the controller’s clock.
Available in rod- and profile-style, the R-Series V transducers have a 37% smaller housing, allowing for more compact application designs. They are more robust and reliable, with an extended operating temperature range of -40° to +85°C, increased shock resistance to 150 g, and vibration resistance to 30 g. The larger voltage supply range facilitates integration into harsher environments while maintaining precise measurements up to 0.5 µm.
Backward compatible with previous generations, the R-Series V combines proven performance and quality with new, intelligent features, delivering familiar reliability with enhanced functionality.
