Custom Order Series Linear Motor Actuator GLM Model

A more affordable, optimally redesigned.Semi-Custom Order Series Linear Motor Model GLM that achieves unprecedented cost-effectiveness among linear motors.

Recommended for customers who are transporting objects farther than 1m and want to:

  • Lower costs when precision is not required
  • Lower cycle times

Immediate Benefits From the Upgrade

Benefit 1: Faster speed with significantly improved repeatability

Benefit 2: Easy to perform maintenance

Completely eliminates the hassle of periodically replacing and adjusting the tension of timing belts.

Mechanical Structure of an Actuator with a Linear Motor Drive

Pro:

  • Few components and no need to make adjustments
  • Can be used with same setting method as a rotary servo motor

Con:

Appears to have a high installation cost

Additional components required:

The Model GLM contains all necessary components.

This product can also be provided without a servo driver if requested

Required work:

None

We adjust the product before delivery.

Linear encoders constitute a large portion of component costs, but the new scaleless type does not require one.

The Model GLM achieves unprecedented cost-effectiveness among linear motor products.
