LMCF - Brushless Cog-Free
Baldor’s cog-free brushless linear motor is designed for unlimited travel servo applications that also require extremely smooth operation with no cogging. Modular track assemblies stack end-to-end to provide the length of stroke required for the application. These motors are supplied in “kit” form to be easily integrated into a machine. The LMCF series provides high peak forces to 2300 N (517 lbs); speeds to 5 m/sec (200 inches/sec); and acceleration to 10 G’s. |

LMIC - Brushless Iron Core
Baldor’s brushless Linear Motor Iron Core motor is designed with advanced technology techniques to minimize cogging, while improving dynamic speed and force capability. The LMIC series has been uniquely designed to providing smooth operation. This series is available in two configurations, a standard profile, and a low profile – for those application requiring smaller, tighter packages. It has unlimited travel utilizing modular platens. LMIC provides high very peak forces to 13,800 N (3100 lbs); speeds up to 8 m/sec (320 inches/sec); and acceleration up to over 10 G’s. |

HyCore - Hybrid Core
Baldor has redefined linear motors with a technological breakthrough. Baldor’s new HyCore™ motor combines the best features and performance of traditional high speed, high force, closed loop brushless linear servo motors, with the cost advantages of open loop linear stepper motor technology. HyCore™ includes benefits, which linear motors bring to an application: zero backlash; high efficiency; unlimited travel; fast velocities and high accelerations. |

LMBR - Brushed Linear Servo Motor
The brushed linear motor is designed for long stoke self-commutated servo applications. The “platen” contains multiple coils (turns of wire) inserted into insulated slots along with a commutator bar. The “forcer” features multiple permanent magnets and brushes for commutation. It is used with pulse width modulated (PWM) DC servo controls. The LMBR series provides high peak forces of 1070N (171 lbs); speeds to 3.8 m/sec (75 in/sec); and acceleration to 5 G’s. |

LMAC - AC Linear Induction Motors
Baldor’s linear induction motor is designed for extremely long travel applications such as material handling and people movers. The linear induction motor consists of a “primary” which is a coil assembly, and a “reaction plate”. When AC voltage is applied to the coil, a traveling magnet field is created which induces current in the reaction plate. The interaction of the two magnetic fields generates the force and directs linear motion. An adjustable frequency inverter will provide velocity control of this linear induction motor. The LMAC series provides very high peak forces of 2224 N (500 lbs); speeds to 6.8 m/sec (270 in/sec) and acceleration to 1 G. |

LMSS - Linear Stepper Motor, Single Axis
Baldor’s open loop linear stepper motor provides the most economical linear motor positioning package. The “forcer” consists of a 2 or 4 phase motor assembly encapsulated in an aluminum housing supported by bearings. The “platen” consists of photo-chemically etched teeth on a steel bar available in lengths cut per customer specification. The LMSS series provides forces to 220 N (50 lbs); speeds to 1.5 – 2 m/sec (890 in/sec); acceleration to 1 G. |

LMDS - Linear Stepper Motor, Dual Axis
Baldor’s dual axis stepper package provides open loop positioning along two axis of travel. An integrated air bearing system floats the “forcer” less than 25 micrometers (0.001 inch) above the photo-chemically etched steel plate. Preload for the bearing system is provide by the magnetic attractive force between the forcer and the platen. The LMDS may be mounted face up or inverted. A position verification system is available to close the loop. |
