Product Introduction
The ironless linear motors feature a force to mass ratio that is up to 42% better than similar competing products.
Schaeffler Industrial Drives follows the trend for lightweight design, particularly relevant in medical technology and automation. Movement axes can be dimensioned smaller and lighter, resulting in higher acceleration speeds and increased output.
Thanks to innovative manufacturing technology combined with different materials, low masses can be achieved for the primary part along with excellent heat dissipation. Up to 43% more nominal force is generated compared to conventional wound coil technology.
UPLplus primary parts are extremely lightweight thanks to printed circuit technology.
The U-shaped UPLplus secondary parts can be easily adapted to the surrounding construction.
Benefits

- Optimum synchronisation
- Optimum positioning accuracy
- No attraction forces to the guidance system
- Increased output/productivity due to dynamic positioning
- Smaller motor dimensions possible due to innovation in manufacturing technology
- More compact/lightweight construction possible due to reduced motor mass

Productronics Modular Configuration
By arranging primary and secondary parts in different ways, various applications can be implemented: moving secondary part for short travel distances (the primary part is fixed; no moving cables), several autonomous or parallel-operated primary parts in one secondary part track (attachable from either side), and gantry drives.
Configuration 1
One primary part on one secondary part track
Configuration 2
Several primary parts on one secondary part track
Configuration 3
Primary parts linked in parallel, version 1
Configuration 4
Primary parts linked in parallel, version 2
Configuration 5
Cross table or gantry arrangement
