Aerotech BLMSC Series Linear Motors

The BLMSC linear motor is Aerotech’s smallest “U-channel” linear motor

measuring only 37.5 mm x 22 mm in cross section. With a high power

density and force output, the BLMSC is ideally suited for space-constrained

applications requiring high-acceleration or high-force output.

Design Features

• Aerotech's smallest linear motor: 37.5 mm x 22 mm cross section

• Continuous force to 27.7 N; peak force to 110.9 N

• Non-magnetic forcer coil provides high force with zero cogging for

super-smooth velocity and position control

• Ideal for space-constrained applications

• CE approved, follows the EU 2015/863 RoHS 3 directive

The motor consists of a noncontact forcer coil assembly with thermal sensor,

optional Hall-effect devices, and “U-channel” magnet track. The design

eliminates backlash, windup, wear, and maintenance issues associated with

ball-screws, belts, and rack and pinions.

The moving forcer coil assembly is a compact, reinforced ceramic-epoxy

structure. The ironless design eliminates cogging and eddy-current losses that

otherwise would limit speed and produce additional heat.

These linear motors are ideal for any application that requires high levels of

positioning resolution and accuracy. BLMSC series linear motors are forgiving

to align, easy to assemble, and keep the magnetic field well-contained.

Magnet tracks are stackable for any travel length. They are also suited for

cleanroom use as they produce no particulates.

The BLMSC can be driven using standard Aerotech brushless amplifiers and

controllers to provide a complete integrated system.
