Rapid and Precise Linear Motion
DDL motors eliminate the need for couplings, belts, rack and pinion gears, ball/lead screws, and other backlash-prone, maintenance-intensive transmission parts by directly driving linear loads.
Direct drive linear motors eliminate the need for complex parts that inevitably wear out and need continual lubrication, making your machine easier to design, faster, more accurate, quieter, and more dependable.
For industry-leading power density, adaptable communication options, and optional functional safety features, pair your DDL motor with an AKD or AKD2G servo drive.

FEATURES
- Ideal for accelerating and moving low to very high masses — greatest rated thrust force per size.
- Suitable for global markets — 230/400/480 VAC bus voltage for IC Ironcore DDL.
- Very smooth velocity with high positional accuracy — zero backlash or compliance, maintaining the stiffness required for machining and other process forces.
- Zero maintenance — eliminates lubrication and wear of ball screws, gearboxes, rack and pinions, or belts and pulleys.
- Simple, compact mechanical assembly — high force density in a minimal form factor with a greatly reduced total parts count.
