Linear Motor Solutions Catalog

Linear motors provide unique speed and positioning advantages for machine builders, and Baldor has published a useful guide to the technology. The 48-page catalog includes details of a wide range of linear motors and stages, plus useful engineering sections including a motor sizing guide, a specification sheet to help define requirements, conversion tables for engineering units, and linear motor FAQs. There is also a guide to the components integrated in ready-made, multi-axis positioning stages. Among the linear motor products detailed in the catalogue are cog-free servo motor types for smooth motion applications, brushless iron core servos, steppers, AC induction, brushed DC, non-commutated DC, and AC polynoid types.
