Product Description:

Kollmorgen's IC11030A1TRP1 belongs to the IC Ironcore Direct Drive Motors series and is supplied as a linear motor coil assembly for closed-loop position control in automation lines, pick-and-place gantries, and precision stages. By generating thrust directly against the magnet track, the unit eliminates rotary-to-linear conversions and reduces mechanical compliance in high-duty production cells. This direct-drive arrangement also avoids the backlash and wear associated with intermediate transmission components, which helps maintain consistent linear motion over repeated cycles.

The coil delivers a continuous phase current of 3.97 Arms, and each ampere produces thrust in proportion to its force constant of 35.8 N/Arms. Electrical characteristics include a phase-to-phase resistance of 1.95 Ω and a synchronous inductance of 17.8 mH L-L. Together, these values create an electrical time constant of 9.1 ms that shapes current-loop bandwidth in the drive. Under steady thermal equilibrium, the winding supplies up to 140 N of continuous force while the integrated PTC sensor monitors copper temperature as it approaches the 130 °C limit. The star winding topology lowers common-mode voltage stress, and the 2.5 kg coil mass simplifies moving-element load calculations. A static magnetic attraction of 1.4 kN must be countered by the mechanical guide system.

During rapid indexing, the drive can source 13.9 Arms, allowing the coil to generate a peak thrust of 369 N for short durations without exceeding insulation class margins. The motor back EMF constant is 29.3 V peak/m/s, so velocity commands translate directly into generated voltage that the amplifier must overcome. Motion controllers may supply bus voltages up to 480 VAC, leaving margin for high-speed moves before duty-cycle derating occurs. Peak-force operation is intended for brief intervals rather than sustained duty, so continuous thermal limits still govern long production cycles. The amplifier must overcome the generated back EMF during high-speed motion, and the linear guide must withstand the magnetic attraction between the coil and track.
