Product Description:

The IC22030A1P1103 is a coil module produced by Kollmorgen within the IC Ironcore Direct Drive Motors series. Designed for linear stages and gantries, the unit serves as the moving force generator that rides against a stationary magnet way. By applying current directly to the coil, it delivers translational thrust without mechanical transmissions, which reduces backlash and improves positioning stiffness in pick-and-place heads, inspection tables, and other motion axes. This direct-drive arrangement also removes components such as belts or screw mechanisms, helping the axis respond quickly to command changes while keeping the mechanical layout compact.

The motor’s inherent magnetic attraction between the coil and magnet rail reaches 2.91 kN, so the bearing system must absorb that preload during installation and operation. Under continuous operation at 25 °C, the coil produces 283 N of thrust when 4 Arms of current is supplied, allowing steady motion profiles while keeping winding temperature within safe limits. For rapid indexing moves, the drive can command up to 14 Arms, enabling a momentary output of 741 N for acceleration peaks or brief process disturbances before thermal limits are approached. These current-to-force relationships guide amplifier sizing and the selection of cable, fuse, and controller settings for the axis.

The electrical characteristics also support drive tuning and motion planning. A force constant of 71.6 N-m/Arms gives the relationship between phase current and produced thrust, while the back-EMF constant of 58.5 Vpk/m/s indicates the voltage regenerated for each meter per second of velocity. The phase inductance is 35.5 mH, so the servo amplifier must use adequate PWM frequency to maintain current-loop bandwidth. Thermal design is assisted by a coil-to-sink thermal resistance of 0.82 °C/W, and the listed coil mass and resistance help predict steady-state temperature rise during production cycles.
