Advanced Linear Motor Drive Technology

The X and Y axes are driven by contactless linear motors. Compared to traditional motors they offer better positioning accuracy and higher efficiency. The drive system is frictionless and free of wear and tear, thus enhancing the dynamic responses of the axes and ultimately the surface quality of the work piece.

High Speed

• Ample 17,000 Nm ( peak ) thrust European made linear motors.
• Without any internal friction the full thrust is available to move the axes.
• Closed-loop high-resolution optical scales on all linear axes ensure optimal accuracy.
• Axial control with optimized parameters.
