3. LinMot Numbering System# 3 Where Do We Start? We generally start with a customer needing something because he or she has an application. Let’s look at a simple example application.

4. LinMot Numbering System# 4 Example Application The customer tells us that the required stroke is 220 millimeter (mm). In order choose the right equipment, the first thing we need to know is the stroke length – which is 220 mm. To select a motor, we need to know the LinMot numbering system.

5. LinMot Numbering System# 5 The LinMot Numbering Scheme This “Motor” number represents a combination of a stator and a slider, however, the stator and slider each have their own part number and must be ordered separately. Lets take a look in detail. A Typical Motor Number P01-37x240F/260x460-C

6. LinMot Numbering System# 6 Motor Parts A “Motor” consists of a “Stator” and a “Slider”

7. LinMot Numbering System# 7 P01-37x240F/260x460-C A – “P01” isn’t useful. Forget about it. B – “37x240F” This part of the number describes the Stator. C – “260x460” This part of the number describes the Slider. D – “C” This part of the number describes the connector on the Stator. It is often omitted if the connector is standard. ABCD

8. LinMot Numbering System# 8 Connector Styles Phoenix “C” Connector or “R” Connector D Sub “C20” or “R20” Connector

9. LinMot Numbering System# 9 P01-37x240F/260x460-C “37” technically means that the stator has a 37mm diameter. It can also be thought of as the “Series” of the Stator. There are three series of stators: 23 series or 23mm (and also the 23S) 37 series or 37mm 48 series (new) or 48mm “240” means that there are approximately 240mm of coils in the stator. More coils, more force “F” means a fast winding. It is omitted if the winding is standard. stator

18. LinMot Numbering System# 18 That’s It For Stators Any questions about the numbering system? Let’s move on to Sliders.

19. LinMot Numbering System# 19 P01-37x240F/260x460-C “260” is the “Shortened Stroke” or Peak Force Stroke or “Sweet Spot”. This means that you can get full force for 260mm of stroke. “460” is the “Max Stroke”. This means that you can get some force for 460mm of stroke. It’s important to know where the Shortened Stroke and Max Stroke are! Lets look at page 140 in the catalog. slider

22. LinMot Numbering System# 22 Slider PL01-20x600/520 This is the description of the slider itself. “20” is the diameter of the slider in mm. A 20mm slider works in a 37mm stator “600” is the length of the slider in mm. If a customer says “Hey, I’ve got a slider and I don’t know what it is”, he can measure it and we can determine the part # by using this number “520” is the approximate length of the magnet stack in mm.

23. LinMot Numbering System# 23 Remember Our Example? The motor we just looked at (P01-37x240/260x460) has a shortened stroke of 260mm. The next smaller motor is a P01-37x240/160x360, so the P01- 37x240/260x460 is the best choice. To start with, pick a motor that has a shortened stroke as long as or longer than the application. The required stroke is 220mm.

24. LinMot Numbering System# 24 But There’s More To It Than That, Isn’t there? Yes, there is. There’s force… and time… and mounting position. We’ll look at that in detail during the course on the LinMot Designer sizing software
