Product Description:

The Beckhoff AL2418-0000-0001 linear servo motor is a high performance linear drive unit designed for precision motion control applications. The motor enables precise position, velocity and force control in demanding industrial automation environments.

The AL2418-0000-0001 linear servo motor from the AL series supports a peak current of 12.30 A that allows for short term high dynamic force generation and a continuous current of 4.56 A for sustained operation without thermal overload. The motor utilizes an iron core design which provides high force density and efficient heat dissipation. The linear servo motor is engineered to deliver a peak force output of 720 Newtons that allows it to handle high dynamic loads and short bursts of demanding operational conditions. It provides a continuous force of 360 Newtons that ensures reliable operation without thermal overload. The 7.2 ohms winding resistance contribute to reduced heat generation under load. Its precise voltage constant of 45.96 V/m/s ensures stable and controlled speed profiles. The 0.5 mm small air gap enhances magnetic field concentration and efficiency. The low coil unit weight of 2.3 kg makes it easier to manage dynamic applications. The 296 W continuous power loss ensures long term operational stability. The servo motor has a thermal time constant of 75 s. These features make it a reliable solution for automated manufacturing, packaging and material handling industries.

The AL2418-0000-0001 linear servo motor is fully compatible with AX5112 series servo drives. This ensures seamless integration within Beckhoff motion control systems. It incorporates both a PTC thermistor with a nominal resistance of 1 kΩ at 25 °C and a KTY83-122 silicon temperature sensor for advanced thermal protection and monitoring. This dual sensor configuration enables precise temperature measurement and reliable over temperature protection.
