The BLMX series “U-channel” brushless linear servomotors
offer over 49% greater continuous output force in the same physical
envelope than similar models from other manufacturers.
BLMX series motors feature a high-efficiency magnetic circuit
design that provides continuous force ratings to 955 N (214.7
lb) and peak forces to 3820 N (858.8 lb). This extremely high
level of performance can be enhanced with special high-power magnet
options that increase force output.
The BLMX moving forcer coil assembly contains Hall-effect devices,
and a thermal sensor, and is constructed of reinforced ceramic
epoxy. This ironless design eliminates eddy-current losses that
otherwise would limit speed and produce additional heat.
BLMX linear motors are direct drive and consist of a moving forcer
coil and “U-channel” rare-earth magnet track. This
design eliminates backlash, windup, wear and maintenance issues
associated with ball screws, belts, and rack and pinions.
The BLMX series nonmagnetic forcer eliminates cogging and magnetic
attraction to allow for extremely smooth motion and very tight
velocity and position control. These linear motors are ideal for
applications demanding the ultimate in force output. BLMX series
linear motors are forgiving to align, easy to assemble, and keep
the magnetic field well-contained. Magnet tracks are stackable
for any travel length. These motors are well-suited for industrial
applications.
The BLMX can be driven using standard Aerotech brushless amplifiers
and controllers to provide a complete, integrated system.
