system. The high rigidity allows a higher stiffness of the automatic control loops. On top of that the linear drive of the profiled guide slide features best efficiency and highest positioning accuracy. “The advantages when utilizing a linear motor had been our design guidelines: We avoid inaccuracies caused by transmission play, resonance or hysteresis”, says Manfred Föhrenbach, founder and managing director of Föhrenbach GmbH. “With the standardized and integrated industrial measuring systems, available in the versions magnetic, optical or opto-isolated, with the option of integrated centralized lubricating or, depending on the implementation, with or without cooling, the linear device can be used in applications with extreme high dynamics, positioning accuracy (smaller 1µ) and stroke (up to 3600 N max). At the same time the PCL / PFL are wearless and realiable units due to their contactless architecture: Even under adverse operating conditions with dust, water or oil involved, the linear unit features excellent synchronisation characteristics and a continuous highly efficiency at rated power. Therefore with the profiled guide slides the customer uses not only an innovative high-tech product that is predestinated for size-critical and at the same time challenging applications. Its compact size is realized through its high integration of all components. Due to the fact that the direct drive unit can be equipped with a pre- parameterized servocontroller or the customer can provide a servo drive and Föhrenbach will programm it, the customer saves time, manpower and most of all costs. He has the full flexibility with his axis control.“, says Manfred Föhrenbach, founder and managing director of Föhrenbach GmbH. „On top of that due to the integrated architecture the decreased EMV values and less cabeling are additional advantages of our system.“ Addtional information on the products or the company Föhrenbach GmbH at www.foehrenbach.com .
