Moving magnet and optical linear scale make for a small linear slide

June 16, 2015 By MDO Editor

IKO Nano Linear NT is a direct drive positioning table with a low sectional height and light weight. A moving magnet and an optical linear scale are assembled in a moving table made of steel which functions as a magnet yoke. A stator coil and linear-scale sensor are combined with a steel bed which acts as a coil yoke. These components are assembled compactly with miniature, linear motion rolling guides (IKO Linear Way Lead) in the guide section of the table.

By using the programming function of a dedicated driver, NT…V can be operated by a simple system configuration that requires no higher level devices.

In addition, floating cables are completely eliminated by adopting a design in which the linear-scale sensor is arranged on the bed. Consequently, this table generates little dust and provides a high level of cleanliness.

By incorporating the strongest neodymium magnet, Nano Linear NT provides large driving force that provides high speed and quick response positioning despite its small size. The slide is most suitable for use as a compact positioning mechanism for semiconductor and liquid crystal related equipment, measuring instruments and assembling systems, where cleanliness is essential.

The sectional height of that Nano Linear motor table is as low as 14 mm. A strong neodymium magnet produces high thrust, high speed, and quick response.
