EDITOR ’ S CHOICE
As a leader in the development of high performance linear motors , LinMot have in the last few years pioneered combined Linear and Rotary motors . These provide independently controlled linear and rotary motions on one shaft with great advantages for Capping , Screwing and Assembly applications .
The growing PR01 Linear Rotary family of motors has now been extended to the new PR02 compact version which is available in 3 size ranges , with extra features such as optional torque and force sensing and built-in mass compensation in case of power-loss using their
Linear Rotary Motors
unique MagSpring ® technology .
Quin Systems , exclusive UK suppliers of LinMot linear motors for over 25 years , can help you match and size this new range to any specific capping or assembly application you have . Using the Linmot Designer App , your torque , mass and cycle time requirements can be used to calculate the most suitable match .

High Speed Capping
Caps on bottles need to be applied quickly , accurately and in a repeatable manner with feedback if there are any problems .
On-the-fly process optimisation is achieved by altering specific parameters such as torque , force , speed , and position . Using the PR02 eliminates the need for compensation springs and couplings and torque clutches .
PRODUCT ASSEMBLY
The tightening of screws and assembly of products are required in almost everything that is manufactured . Now though , higher tolerances and greater feedback is needed in a modern production process . Using the LinMot PR02 , high-speed assembly can be achieved while giving feedback on screw thread quality , length and torque accuracy better than 1 %.
This level of continuous monitoring of both linear and rotary axes is a huge step up in control and quality from using more conventional clutch and pneumatic methods combined with simpler motor control .
