maxon motor micro linear positioning drive
maxon motor has released a 6 mm micro linear positioning drive with internal gearing, available in both metal and ceramic versions. Micro DC motor linear positioning systems are suitable for applications that require accurate positioning and high forces while maintaining minimal weight and a small footprint.
The linear speed, length and forces can be controlled and adjusted by combining a suitable brushed or brushless DC motor, encoder and motor drive electronics. Up to 11 N continuous and 15 N intermittently can be achieved with linear speeds of 25 mm/s. The ceramic version gives high efficiency and longer lifespan, while for less demanding applications the metal version is more cost effective. With a linear actuator, thrust bearing system and planetary gearhead in one assembly a weight of only 2.9 g is possible, making the device also suitable for specialist robotic applications.
