Ironless motorsSuperior precision with accurate force constant and speed
In contrast to iron core motors, these motors feature an ironless coil unit, so there is no attraction force or cogging between the coil unit and the magnet track. This gives ironless motors their light weight, superior precision, a linear force constant, and extremely dynamic velocity, acceleration, and deceleration.
UC seriesSmall but ready to do its job
The UC Ironless linear motor is small but ready to do its job. Weighing in at just a few grams, this versatile, compact, and affordable motor is perfect to operate in a vertical application environment. Weighing in at just a few grams, this versatile, compact and affordable motor is still able to sustain a continuous force of max 20N.
Key highlights- Ironless direct‑drive design for low inertia and high responsiveness
- Extremely low mass (only a few grams) — suitable for vertical/Z‑axis applications
- Compact form factor for integration in limited‑space stages and modules
- Configurable: multiple coil units and magnet yokes; inline cable option
Characteristics- Peak force: Max 72 N
- Continuous force: Max 20 N
- Coil units: UC3, UC3 inline, UC6, UC6 inline
- Magnet yokes: UC66, UC99, UC264
- Motive mass: only a few grams (model dependent)
- Optimized for vertical/Z‑axis mounting and integration in compact systems
Coupling to increase force- Electrical and mechanical coupling of two units is a recommended method to increase available force where higher peak or continuous values are required.
