AA2518 | Ironless tubular motor with water cooling

The AA2518 ironless tubular motor performs translatory movements without any kind of cogging, allowing it to facilitate dynamic, extremely smooth, and incredibly precise motion profiles. A further benefit is that it does not rely on any additional mechanical elements, such as spindles. Its compact design, exceptional precision, and impressive dynamics make this motor ideal for use in applications including packaging and machine tools, as well as in the paper, textile, and food industries.

The AA2518 water-cooled tubular motor offers a 1050 N peak force and a maximum velocity of 8 m/s with 300 N of nominal force. It can even be operated on our AX5000 or AX8000 servo drives in combination with commercially available linear encoders. With its streamlined mechanics and correspondingly fewer moving parts, it is not only easy to integrate into the respective machine or system, but also extremely compact and cost-effective to use. The AA2518 is both backlash-free and wear-free in the system, resulting in significantly lower maintenance costs than when using elements such as spindles. As is typical of a linear motor, movements can be made via the primary or secondary part as required, with the tubular motor offering the added benefit of a high IP65 protection rating.

The full product range also includes accompanying magnetic rods for different stroke lengths along with fully wired cables.
