Product Description:

The MLP100B-0030-FS-N0CN-NNNN is a synchronous linear motor primary part produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the MLP Synchronous Linear Motors series. It is intended to generate direct thrust along a flat secondary track, eliminating mechanical transmissions in positioning systems, gantries, and pick-and-place axes. By delivering force electromagnetically rather than through rotary motion and gearboxes, the unit shortens response times and simplifies maintenance in automated production lines.

A peak attractive load of 8000 N acts between the primary and its secondary rail, so the bearing system must absorb this constant preload. During continuous duty, the mover supplies 1785 N, while transient overloads are permitted up to 3000 N. Force output scales with current, and a force constant of 352.4 N per ampere means the rated 5.1 A produces nominal thrust while the allowed maximum of 9.7 A supports overload events. To remove the 1300 W of copper and core losses, the stator uses liquid cooling. A flow rate of 1.9 l/min produces only a 0.5 bar pressure drop in the cooling channel, and with effective heat removal the carriage reaches 70 m/min while still maintaining 30 m/min at full force without magnetic saturation.

Electrically, the winding has a voltage constant of 203.4 Vs/m, an inductance of 137.0 mH, and a resistance of 26.4 ohms. The thermal response has a time constant of 2.4 min, which gives the cooling circuit a short delay before load changes are fully reflected in temperature. Power conductors with a 1.0 mm² cross-section are routed through the front face, and the housing uses the standard encapsulation method to protect the winding. The assembly is length B in size 100 and is shipped without an encoder, so external position feedback must be provided by the machine. Front-face cable routing also helps when the mover must fit into compact axis layouts with limited side clearance.
