Product Description:

For linear motor installations in the Kollmorgen ICD Ironcore Direct Drives series, the MCD0300128001 serves as the magnet way assembly that provides the fixed magnetic field along the travel path. Manufactured by Kollmorgen, this component is mounted beneath the forcer to complete the ironcore drive set and help convert electrical current into thrust without gear or screw transmissions. With an overall width of 55.0 mm and an overall height of 8.25 mm, the segment fits compactly into machine frames where envelope constraints are tight.

The laminated steel base of the section is 4.0 mm thick, giving a stiff mounting surface while keeping mass low. A body width of 45.0 mm centers the magnet rows under the coil stack and leaves clearance for coil overhang. The stainless-steel cover measures 0.25 mm in thickness and supports a controlled air gap of 0.55 mm, minimizing cogging while protecting the magnets from chip ingress. Pole pairs are spaced on a 25.0 mm pitch so the electrical wavelength aligns with the ICD forcer windings. The bar weighs 2.70 kg/m, which is useful when calculating mass on long gantries. Each factory-cut segment supplied under this code is 127.3 mm long, allowing staggered joints to create extended travel. Additional details include a counterbore depth of 1.6 mm and a counterbore diameter of 8.3 mm, while precise grinding helps maintain overall length tolerance.

Four mounting holes, each drilled to a 4.7 mm diameter, pass through the base so the segment can be pulled tight against tooling plates. Two locating holes are provided, and their center-to-center spacing of 114.0 mm matches dowel patterns on standard Kollmorgen back-iron rails. The nonmagnetic cover is made from stainless steel, preventing surface corrosion without interfering with flux return. A locating dowel system simplifies alignment when multiple pieces are chained, and the 0.25 mm cover thickness keeps the magnetic path undisturbed while shielding the magnets during installation and operation.
