Product Description:
The AL2412-0001-0000 is a primary section from Beckhoff’s AL Linear Motors series. As a moving coil assembly for linear servo systems, it interacts with a stationary magnet track to generate thrust without mechanical transmission. In industrial automation, this direct-drive principle provides precise positioning for gantries, pick-and-place units, and synchronized transport lines while reducing the wear and backlash often associated with screw or belt drives.
Under continuous operation, the motor delivers 240 N of thrust when supplied with a current of 6.15 A. A back electromotive force constant of 22.63 V/m/s indicates the voltage that the drive amplifier must overcome as speed rises, while a mechanical pole pitch of 24 mm establishes the electrical cycle length for commutation. Copper losses are influenced by a phase resistance of 2.7 Ω, which contributes to the continuous power dissipation of 197 W. The speed-optimized winding design, motor constant of 380 N²/W, and thermal time constant of 75 seconds help keep the coil temperature within operating limits during sustained duty. An attraction force of 900 N across the 0.5 mm air gap must be considered when sizing the bearing system. The unit’s 50 mm body width supports compact multitrack layouts where installation space is limited.
For short bursts, the actuator can reach a peak force of 480 N by accepting up to 16.40 A, providing the dynamic margin required for rapid acceleration or sudden load changes. Twelve stator coils arranged in a speed-winding topology minimize electrical time constants, aided by an inductance of 18 mH that shapes the current slew rates commanded by the servo drive. The motor has a thermal resistance of 0.38 °C/W, so forced convection or plate cooling may be added when ambient temperatures are high. The design does not include water cooling or external connectors, which simplifies installation, while the 39 N/A force constant assists with matching the motor to a suitable drive.
