Tecnotion TM3 Manual 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. The manual further informs about import-
ant design and installation aspects of the linear motors, the important dimensions for designing the construction that
will hold the linear motor, the required settings before starting up, and other aspects. Also, it will give insight in the
definition of all specifications of a Tecnotion linear motor.
When installing a linear motor system, one should be familiar with some important safety remarks. In the first chapter
these remarks are made. Please read them carefully. For technical questions you can contact the Application Engineer-
ing department at support@tecnotion.com or at +31 546 898 475.
