Product Description:

The MCS020-3S-0300-NNNN is a secondary part for an ironless linear motor produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the MCS Linear Motors series. Classified as an MCS ironless linear motor secondary part, it carries the permanent magnets that interact with a primary coil track to create thrust without cogging. When combined with a suitable primary section and drive amplifier, this component supplies precise, smooth linear motion for positioning stages, gantry axes, and semiconductor handling equipment in automated production lines. Because thrust is generated directly along the axis, the assembly is well suited to linear motion systems that do not use gears or belts.

The secondary part follows frame size 020, a designation that keeps it compatible with movers of the same cross-section. Its body width is 20.8 mm, so carriage plates can be machined with a matching slot while still keeping adjacent axes close together. An overall height of 37.5 mm establishes the gap between the machine base and the moving payload. Fastening occurs through screws inserted from the top face into threaded holes, which simplifies removal and reinstallation. During operation, the mover is open to its surroundings, as indicated by the IP00 protection rating, so it must be placed inside a protective housing. A linear mass density of 3.7 kg/m helps calculate acceleration forces and set appropriate current limits for the axis.

This configuration is supplied in a secondary length of 300 mm, providing 0.3 meters of active magnet surface for continuous force generation along the stroke. With a total mover weight of 1.1 kg, inertia stays low and supports high-bandwidth position loops without oversizing the drive. The mounting style is standard, which allows the part to seat flush against a flat reference edge. The compact moving mass also helps the axis respond quickly during short-stroke positioning and frequent reversals.
