AC linear motor UF series

three-phasesynchronousironless

Ironless motors
Superior 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.

UF series
High continuous force for application with high duty cycles
It is exceptionally suited for applications with high duty cycles, for instance in the medical and semiconductor markets or for pick & place systems. The UF Series is built specifically to sustain very high continuous forces for its footprint, which is only marginally larger than that of the UC. It is exceptionally suited for applications with high duty cycles, for instance in the medical and semiconductor markets or for pick & place systems.

Key features

• Designed to sustain very high continuous forces relative to its footprint.
• Optimized for high duty-cycle and frequent start/stop operation.
• Available in multiple coil unit sizes (UF3–UF6) and magnet yokes (UF72–UF120) to match application requirements; UF6 available with inline cable option.
• Documentation and CAD files provided to support system integration.

Characteristics

• Peak force: Max 85 N
• Continuous force: Max 39 N
• Coil units: UF3 – UF6 (+ inline cable option for both)
• Magnet yokes: UF72 – UF120
• Typical markets: medical, semiconductor, pick & place, robotics and other high-duty-cycle applications
• Available documents: spec sheet, motor manual, CAD files, brochure
• Note: footprint only marginally larger than UC series while providing significantly higher continuous force for its size.
