  • Page 16: System Design

    LinX Series Linear Motor - User Guide System Design System Components The design of the LinX cylindrical motor allows for simple replacement of standard ball-screw motors. However, to achieve the best performance with LinX, the system must be optimized. This chapter will describe the main components to consider when designing a system.
  • Page 17: Forcer

    System Design The LinX shaft produces a strong magnetic field and the effect of this field on surrounding parts and components should be considered during system design. Relevant effects of the strong magnetic field include: Attraction between the shaft and ferrous or magnetic objects. This magnetic force may cause bending in longer shafts.

    System Design Figure 4-2 - Air cooled forcer mounting example Figure 4-3 - Fluid cooled forcer mounting example DANGER: The forcer must be earthed via the armature connector to prevent the possiblility of electric shock during motor operation. 4.2.4 Brake An external brake should be considered for all applications to prevent damage to systems or users in the event of a failure or fault.
  • Page 20: Vertical Applications

    LinX Series Linear Motor - User Guide The brake must be chosen so that it provides enough force to resist gravity, inertia and machine operation. The kinetic energy of the moving load will be converted into heat due to friction when the brake is applied. The amount of kinetic energy must be taken into account to prevent damage to the brake due to overheating.

If the sag exceeds this value, additional countermeasures should be taken. Please contact ANCA Motion for more information. 4.3.2 Forcer WARNING: The shaft is not designed to be a load bearing element.

    LinX Series Linear Motor - User Guide Multi-Axis Systems The LinX linear motor system allows for various multi-axis configurations. This can include a single drive and motor for each axis, multiple forcers on a single shaft or two motors moving a gantry. These various configurations can be combined as required for the application.

    System Design 4.8.2 Multi Forcer Figure 4-7 – Multiple Forcers Unlike ball-screw systems, the multiple LinX forcers can operate on a single shaft to increase the force applied by an axis. These forcers can be synchronized or act completely independently depending on the application. This setup allows for increased flexibility in machine design while providing a compact and cost effective solution.

    Installation Installation Unpacking WARNING: Cylindrical motor shafts contain powerful permanent magnets. People with a pacemaker, AICD or similar medical devices should maintain a minimum distance of 30cm from the shaft. WARNING: The shaft emits a very strong magnetic field, always use caution when handling. To avoid injury, keep fingers and other body parts clear.

  • Page 37: Forcer

    Installation 10. Move the forcer back and forward along the length of the stroke and adjust the forcer and shaft mounts to achieve the maximum clearance between the forcer and shaft. Figure 6-6 - Assembled LinX motor 6.2.2 Forcer WARNING: Surface temperatures of up to 80°C can be present during operation of the LinX system. Allow the forcer and shaft to cool before touching the motor.
  • Page 38 LinX Series Linear Motor - User Guide Figure 6-8 - Parallel forcers Parallel motors must not operate too close together to avoid curvature caused by magnetic fields. There must be a minimum distance of 180mm between shafts. Due to the large attractive force between two shafts it is strongly recommended that non-magnetic spacers or guides are used when installing parallel shafts.

Care should be taken with the sensitive electronics of the encoder near the strong magnetic field of the shaft.
  • Page 40: Electrical

    LinX Series Linear Motor - User Guide Electrical wiring between the encoder and servo drive (On an incremental encoder, inversion of one of the quadrature signals is sufficient). Swap any two phases of UVW. The recommended method for matching the movement direction of the motor and encoder is updating the software configuration in the drive (1) as this involves no physical change to the system.
  • Page 41: Electromagnetic Compatibility (Emc)

    Installation 6.3.3 Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) While the ultimate responsibility for a system’s EMC compliance lies with the system builder, the LinX motor’s design provides good EMC performance as a system component. The aluminum forcer housing that contains the motor windings effectively limits both radiated noise emission from the motor during operation and external sources of noise from impacting connected electronics.

    LinX Series Linear Motor - User Guide Appendix Motor Selection Guide 9.1.1 Application Continuous Force Calculation Example The following example demonstrates calculation of a motor duty cycle simple positioning move with a trapezoidal velocity profile. The profile is broken up into sections i.e. acceleration, constant velocity and deceleration in order to determine the RMS force and duty cycle.
  • Page 45: Duty Cycle Calculation

    Appendix Other application forces also need to be taken into account such as friction and external forces; however, for the sake of simplicity, they will be ignored in this example. Force RMS: √ √ If this move were to continue cyclically then this result could be used with a forcer’s continuous force rating for forcer model selection.
