Moving Coil Actuators

LDL series moving coil actuator is an economical, space saving solution, designed with an integrated or standalone controller options. It is fully programmable in force, acceleration, position and velocity and allows users to change product profiles on the fly. SMAC’s Patented "Soft-Land^TM" capability enables the unit to gently land on a delicate component, then apply a programmed precise force with a controlled force to avoid damage of both the component and the actuator. It has been designed as a cost-competitive alternative to pneumatics / air cylinders, with the following unique features:

• Fully programmable in Position, Acceleration, Velocity and Force
• Sub- micron resolution (5 µm to 100nm)
• Low moving mass = high acceleration
• Direct drive = no backlash, excellent repeatability
• Force control = Soft-Land^TM capability
• >100 million cycles MTBF = Long operating life
• < 55dB = Officially ‘Silent’ in operation
• Higher cycle rates, long cycle life
• Built-in controller available (optional add-on)
• Ability to feed back in real time what happened when work was done

LDL series moving coil actuators are designed to perform at exceptionally high speeds or very low speeds and with sub-micron accuracy and repeatability with as precise as 1 ms response time. This makes them ideal for a wide range of positioning, measuring, inspection, and pick-and-place applications, particularly where 100% verification is required. Customers desiring to increase up-time, ease of set up, and adjustment can make dramatic improvements by using mechatronic SMAC moving coil technology.
