February 9, 2010 - IntelLiDrives releasedLinear ServoSLide linear servo motor slide to eliminate backlash, friction and wear problems associated with the mechanical transmissions, such as ball/lead screws, rack & pinion and gearboxes. Linear ServoSLide features brush-less non-contact linear motor design with forces 100 N to 2000 N and low cogging for fast and accurate positioning.Double rail bearing system is integrated into the slide to support moving carriage and to provide dynamic stiffness and precise straightness of travel. Precision non-contact linear position feedback with selectable resolution from 0.1 to 10 microns is mounted in the carriage to minimize thermal drift.
Limit Sensors are incorporated to establish end of travel and “home” positions.Slide components are mounted in the high strength extruded aluminum housing precisely machined to provide outstanding straightness and flatness for installation in horizontal or vertical orientations with travels up to 5 m.Linear ServoSLide incorporates connector panel to provide “plug-in” connectivity and quick disconnect for all signal and power requirements as well as cable transport module with high flex robotic cable installed and pre-wired to the connector panel.Multi-axes systems – gantries and XYZ robotic arms - can be easily constructed using multiple Linear ServoSLides.
