Linear Motors for the Food and Pharmaceutical Industry
Linear motors are ideal for fast and accurate motion in a machine .
Linmot , the leading manufacturer of cylindrical linear motors , has made them even more suitable for demanding food and pharmaceutical applications . For these environments , any mechanism needs to have a high protection class and be easy to clean and require little maintenance .
The motors have been developed to be fully sealed and are made in High grade Stainless Steel . The cylindrical design allows the motor to be completely smooth and does not require seals . There are no food or particle traps and they can be fully washed down .
This is a big advantage over screw , belt actuators or pneumatic cylinders .
The motors are available in Linear modules with protection class IP64S and stainless steel linear modules with protection class IP69 consisting of a linear guide and an integrated LinMot linear motor .
Motor series in stainless steel ( EN 1.4404 / AISI 316L ) for wash down applications . The motors are characterised by their hygienic design and the high motor protection class IP69 according to DIN EN 60529 . Perfectly suited for « in-place » cleaning processes like CIP and SIP .
Food processing with LinMot
LinMot linear motors have been used in the food industry for years . They score here with industry-specific advantages , such as simple integration , flexible programmability , dynamics and hygienic design . The motors can be connected to common control platforms in synchronous operation or simple point-to-point motion . The advantages of servo technology enable the gentle and dynamic processing of food . With the help of stored motion profiles , frequent product changes can be achieved simply by pressing a button . LinMot linear motors are available in stainless steel with a high protection class , meaning they can be cleaned under high pressure and with caustic cleaning solutions .
Filling in the Pharmaceutical Industry
Users wishing to combine the advantages of dosing based on flow measurement with those of piston dosing in a rotary filling machine now have clean design LinMot motor options . Using LinMot stainless steel
motors , the stroke movement of the filling needles can be mechanically decoupled from the movement of the carousel . Even highly dynamic needle raising applications are possible .
Unlike mechanical lifting curves , electrical direct drives do not exert any destructive forces on the bearing shafts .
