Components

A Tecnotion iron core linear motor consists out of a coil unit and one or
more magnet plates. Together with a slide, mounting frame, rails and be-
aring system, dampers, encoder, controller and amplifier the linear motor
forms a complete machine concept.

Tecnotion only supplies coils and magnet plates and offers a few additional
components like Hall modules and stainless steel cover plates. All other
components need to be sourced from other suppliers. Please review this
chapter carefully to determine what is necessary to design a complete
system.

2.1.1 Coil unit

Tecnotion offers most of the coilunits as an N- and S-winding version. What
type is required depends on the voltage, current and speed requirements
of the application.
The N-winding type is optimized for current, enabling the use of a smaller
less costly amplifier. S-winding is optimized for higher speeds or lower
voltages. It can however require a larger amplifier.
