Product Description:

The MCP040E-V180-NI-L1CN-NNNN is a linear motor unit from Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the MCP Linear Motors series. As an ironless primary section, the product generates thrust without cogging forces, making it suitable for precision gantries, semiconductor stages, and other industrial automation axes that demand smooth, directly driven linear motion. Integrated coils interact with a separate magnet track to convert controlled DC bus energy into translational force. This part is supplied as the moving element that couples to a matching secondary rail, which helps keep the axis responsive during short-stroke and high-precision motion.

The motor is designed for a DC link of 300 VDC, so the drive controller must deliver that voltage to reach its rated force curve. Heat dissipation relies on natural convection, so no forced airflow or liquid circuit is required and mounting remains simpler in compact machine frames. Power and feedback leads exit at the front, allowing straight routing into a cable carrier positioned ahead of the carriage. Mechanical integration follows an I-shape mounting profile that aligns with standardized pre-drilled base plates. For commutation and synchronization, the built-in Hall unit provides an analog output that the drive electronics use during initial position detection and phase alignment.

Dimensional data place the moving coil in the medium build class, identified as Motor Size 040 with Frame Length E. These dimensions support estimation of thrust density and available stroke from the published performance curves for this envelope. The part is cataloged as an MCP Ironless Linear Motor, meaning the coil carrier contains only copper windings and epoxy, which lowers moving mass and avoids magnetic attraction to nearby steel surfaces. The unit has no special design enhancements, so it follows the standard MCP configuration without optional coolant channels, strain-relief brackets, or custom connectors.
