Rockwell Automation LC-Series Linear Motor - Manual (Page 6)

Item Number 814036 - Rev C
1-2 Introduction
For servo drives that require commutation feedback, an optional trapezoidal
(digital) Hall effect feedback module may be attached to the front of the motor
coil. The LC may also be commutated via software. Anorad offers a full line of
compatible servo controls and drives.
Motor Features
• Steel core design for high force density
• Sinusoidal flux density and low-cog design yields smooth motion
• Robust design for heavy duty applications
• Modular magnet tracks permit unlimited travel
• Internal thermal sensor gives added motor protection
Maintenance Anorad linear motors require no maintenance when operated in a relative clean
environment. For operation in harsh and dirty environments minimal clean is
recommended every 6 months:
• Clean the metallic debris and other contaminants from the air gap. To
effectively remove the metal debris use a strip of masking tape.
Simply put a strip of tape on the magnet track an then remove it.
Keeping the magnet track clean will prevent witness marks. Witness
marks are caused by metal debris being dragged across the surface of
the stainless steel by the magnet field of the moving coil. Witness
marks have no effect on the performance of the motor.
