These single-axis linear stepper motors are well-suited for high-speed open-loop positioning applications. They can perform at speeds of up to 80 in/sec (2 m/sec) and strokes of up to 68 in (1.7 m). Linear stepper motors are capable of precise position, velocity and acceleration control when coupled with a microstepping drive and indexer. The moving assembly called the “forcer” is supported by magnetically preloaded air bearings that are embedded in the forcer’s active surface and on a single side of the platen to minimize the physical contact of bearings on the platen.
