It allows for coupling of the motor directly to the linear load versus other designs which use a rotary motor and couple through mechanics inducing backlash, efficiency losses and other inaccuracies.
Parker offers a robust product line using linear motor technology. From simple single axis components to custom designed multi-axis systems and everything in between, Exotic can provide a solution for your application. Learn more here.
