Linear Motors

.Ist das alles die gleiche seite?

Linear motor suppliers manufacture drive systems that produce linear motion directly, without the gearboxes, belts, or ball screws used to convert rotary motion. The suppliers below serve high-precision positioning, handling, and machine tool applications across European industry.

What Linear Motors suppliers provide

Suppliers in this category cover ironcore and ironless linear motors, along with the associated feedback systems and controllers needed for closed-loop positioning. Because linear motors eliminate the mechanical conversion stages of rotary systems, they typically offer higher positioning accuracy and dynamic response, at the cost of higher unit price and more demanding installation tolerances. Core competence lies in matching motor type, force rating, and travel length to the positioning accuracy and speed the application requires. Many suppliers also provide integration support for motion control systems. Distinguish this category from Electric Motors, which produce rotary motion for general industrial drives, and from Motor Drive Systems, which control motors rather than generate motion.

Relevant standards

Linear motors are typically integrated with motion controllers and feedback systems specified to relevant IEC standards for electrical machines and equipment, including IEC 60529 for enclosure protection ratings. Supplier quality management is typically certified to ISO 9001.

Frequently asked questions

Why choose a linear motor over a rotary motor with a ball screw?
Linear motors avoid mechanical conversion stages, which typically improves positioning accuracy, speed, and reliability for demanding applications, though at a higher component cost than a rotary motor and ball screw combination.

What applications typically use linear motors?
Common applications include semiconductor and electronics handling, machine tool axes, and other high-precision positioning tasks where accuracy and dynamic response are critical.
