Linear Motion in its Simplest Form
Simplicity of Design - IntelLiDrives TM produce direct linear motion, eliminating stretching belts, slipping pulleys, hysteresis and wear of the leadscrews. Cost Effective - IntelLiDrives TM offer lowest cost linear motion system solution due to their compatibility with standard stepping motor indexers and drivers. Reliability - IntelLiDrives TM built-in roller ball bearing system feature constant gap design and do not require any adjustments or preloads. Air bearing linear drives produce frictionless design, resulting in a long, maintenance-free operation. High Throughput - IntelLiDrives TM are capable of velocities in excess of 100 ips and low mass forcer design allows high acceleration and response. Flexibility - IntelLiDrives TM motions can be performed in any plane. Multiple forcers can move on a single platen with overlapping trajectories. XY gantry and direct Cartesian positioning systems can be implemented with multiple forcers. High Performance - IntelLiDrives TM can approach closed loop performance with the advantages of the open loop design. Repeatability of 0.0001" and displacement accuracy of 0.0005" can be achieved without the expense of feedback devices. For ultimate performance IntelLiDrives TM can be supplied with linear encoders and controlled in closed loop servo mode as two-phase brushless motors. Proven Technology - IntelLiDrives TM are used in numerous applications - ranging from from all phases of semiconductors manufacturing to automotive parts assembly.
