The direct-drive linear ServoSlide system is a linear motor solution that eliminates wear, friction, backlash and compliances associated with mechanical transmissions, such as ball/lead screws, rack and pinion, belts/pulses and gearboxes. The linear motor forcer features noncontact design and low cogging for fast and accurate positioning. A carriage support double-rod bearing system is integrated into the slide to support the moving carriage and to provide dynamic stiffness and precise straightness of travel. Bearing rollers are preloaded magnetically by the carriage against a magnet track. The integral linear encoder provides precision noncontact linear position feedback with resolution of 1 micron.
