Product Description:

The MLP040A-0300-FT-N0CN-NNNN is a linear motor primary section in the MLP Synchronous Linear Motors series from Bosch Rexroth Indramat. It supplies direct linear thrust for industrial automation stages that require precise, rapid positioning without transmission backlash. This model uses motor size 040 and length code A, which determine the active magnetic surface and the footprint needed to align with matching secondary track segments in modular multi-axis machines.

Thermal regulation is achieved through a closed circuit of liquid cooling, allowing the coils to sustain a nominal force of 250 N while remaining within temperature limits. An IP65 housing blocks dust and water jets so the assembly can be mounted close to working processes. Peak mechanical output rises to 800 N when the drive delivers a maximum phase current of 18.0 A. Under rated coil excitation, the moving element reaches a nominal speed of 500 m/min, while full-force operation limits attainable speed to 300 m/min. Wiring exits at the front edge to shorten cable loops on sliding carriages, the windings are bonded by thermo-encapsulation for vibration resistance, the 0300 winding code matches standard Rexroth linear drives, and no encoder is installed, leaving position feedback to an external measuring system.

Electrical consumption during continuous duty is limited to 3.8 A, which helps size power supplies for multi-axis installations. The primary section measures 108 mm deep, 235 mm wide, and 73.9 mm high, allowing flush mounting beneath tooling plates. A mass of 8.000 kg adds inertia that must be considered when calculating move profiles and also supports thermal stability during cyclic loads. The sealed core and thermo-encapsulated coil stack protect against condensation and coolant splash, while the front-fed conductors keep motion-loop slack minimal. The unit is suited for high-duty packaging, electronics assembly, and light machining tasks where linear force density is important.
