  • Page 1 Iron core linear motor manual ve rsion 2 .0...
  • Page 2 INTRODUCTION A linear motor system is part of a specific machine. Tecnotion’s iron core linear motors are components that can be combined with numerous application devices. This manual is intended for technicians who want to construct a machine that includes a linear motor system. It gives insight in the basic components of a Tecnotion iron core linear motor and additional components to complete the whole motion system.

    1. BEFORE YOU START Important notices This is the manual for your Tecnotion iron core motor. Please read this Before installing and using the linear motor, read this instruction manual very carefully. The information provided is important for a manual carefully. The manufacturer declines all responsibility in case of accident or damage due to negligence or lack of observance of the safe and warranted installation and operation of the motor.

Therefore Tecnotion always recommends using the mounting height instead of measuring the air gap. When the mounting height is followed, the air gap will automatically be correct.
  • Page 15: Heat Transfer

    Heat transfer The limiting factor of the performance of the linear motor is the max- imum temperature (100°C) of the coils. In order to reach the highest possible performance, it is crucial to ensure that the heat transfer from the coils to the outside world is as good as it can be. The heat is generated in the copper coils, and transferred to the aluminum hous- ing of the coil unit.

    The magnet plates show large attraction forces on all soft magnetic objects such as iron. These forces cannot be controlled by hand. They may cause serious jamming danger. Do not bring any soft magnetic objects like iron nearer than 25 centimeter of the magnetic side of the magnet plate.

It is possible to connect the motor cable to your own cable and use that one in the Pressure drop (bar) cable chain, as long as that cable is suitable for cable chains.

    Provide the motor system with PE lines to 4.3.3 Voltage spikes When a Tecnotion motor is used in an application it might be neces- the amplifier that are as short as possible. Also provide the magnet sary to either use a connector or a longer cable provided by the cus- track with an effective PE connection.
  • Page 26: Temperature Protection

    In almost all controllers an I²t-protection can be set in the software. Tecnotion motors are three-phase motors, but there is only one PTC. In some cases, for example when the coil units are stationary but still powered, you will find different temperatures in every of the three phases.
  • Page 27: Kty Specification

    4.3.8 KTY specification The coil units have a KTY 83-122 temperature sensor for monitoring the temperature. Because of the well-defined and smooth resistance curve, this sensor type is optimal for monitoring. In table 4.9 and figure 4.19 the temperature dependence of the KTY sensor used in supply the coil units can be seen.

    Internally all iron core linear motors are equally wired and connected, so one test satisfies to find out the polarization of a motor ruler com- bination. If more axes are constructed in exactly the same way the polarization will be equal. De-installation order The de-installation order of this manual must be followed.

    This procedure can be performed by most standard servo controllers. When in doubt, please contact your servo supplier. Iron core motors from Tecnotion can be equipped with an analog Hall module for positioning or with a digital Hall module for commutation.
