Distinctive FeaturesⅠ

Big thrust (6000N) possibilityQuiet, no friction during movementLight weight and compact due to no coreSimple structure allows building of unit from a short stroke up to 4.6M strokeHigh resolution (0.14nm), and when combined with high accuracy linear encoder you can achieve high precision positioning

Sold & Serviced By:

Distinctive FeaturesⅡIt is possible to control speed and positioning with high accuracy by using a linear encoder, even if the mechanical accuracy a little rough.High-speed drive (6.5m/Sec)Low-speed drive (8 μ m/Sec)Almost uniform in speed (±0.006% at 100mm/Sec)Can be used in strong environments such as underwater and in a vacuumWhen compared to other linear motors, it is compact and lightweight

Duty Curve

DUTY=Acceleration and slowdown/cycle

In case of a linear motor, constant movement (Duty=1) is not practical.

Technique utilizing duty well is the art of using a shaft motor.

Holding ThrustDue to servo control, thrust is not held after achieving the position to be programmed

Holding thrust up to the maximum is maintained during operation

Holding thrust depends on the gain

Holding thrust is also depends on the resolution of an encoder

Advantages for Manufacturing

• Quality Control – Saving time in inspection– Simple QC in total due to the simple structure

• Cost Control – Low cost in making a guide– Basically low cost in structure

• Process Control – High productivity （due to simple assembling）– Flexibility of production（Exchangeable in production

process）– Easy maintenance

（In comparison to a conventional liner motor）

ApplicationUsing high resolution High precision position accuracyUsing stability in speeding and less than 0.05% of unevenness of

movement Precise measurementUsing 0.1μm of repetition positioning accuracy Pinpoint

alignmentA system can be compact and it can build simply. System design

with high flexibility

2 heads of a shaft motor are used at the X-axis

1 head of a shaft motor is used at the Y-axis

Features of a shaft motorQuiet, no friction during movementBig thrust (6000N)Repetition of position accuracy is available in 0.1μm.Compared with the other drive system, it is very stable in speeding and

possible to control with stable speed.Possible to operate by a high-speed drive (6.5 m/Sec) to low-speed drive

(8μm /Sec).Can be used in strong environments such as underwater and in a vacuum.A system is compact and simple.
