LinMot GmbH
About us
NTI AG is a global manufacturer of high quality tubular style linear motors and linear motor systems and thus focuses on the development, production and distribution of linear direct drives for use in industrial environments.
Founded in 1993 as an independent business unit of the Sulzer Group, NTI AG has been in operation since 2000 as an independent company.
NTI AG is headquartered in Spreitenbach, near Zurich in Switzerland. In addition to production sites in Switzerland and Slovakia, NTI AG has sales offices in Germany, Italy and North America.
The brands LinMot® for industrial linear motors and MagSpring® for magnetic springs are offered to customers worldwide. NTI AG maintains an experienced customer consultant sales and support network of over 80 locations worldwide.
For the realization of linear motion NTI AG is always a competent and reliable partner.
Products & services
Linear Motors
LinMot motors are high quality, extremely high efficiency tubular linear motors. This high efficiency means less heat generated and better position accuracy. The simple, clean tubular design makes it easy to install the motor, reducing the footprint and achieving unrivaled force density. Contrary to conventional drive solutions, LinMot solutions do not require any mechanical transmission elements – which simplifies the design, while reducing wear to almost zero and thus minimizing maintenance. LinMot motors are uncompromisingly reliable, and their precise, smooth, quiet, and high dynamic motion makes them ideal for almost all applications and industries.
Linear Modules
LinMot linear modules & guides are precise, ready to install linear systems that are energy efficient and require minimal installation space. These products offer high guidance accuracy and facilitate dynamic and precise positioning of the load while supporting external forces, torques, and bending moments. The product portfolio covers different strength classes with all required stroke lengths that guarantee millions of precise load changes. Between the linear modules and guides, you can choose from different sizes, countless stroke lengths and many available options. We offer you the optimal solution whatever the application.
Hubdreh-Motoren
Closing, screwing or assembling… Linear rotary motors from LinMot are characterised by excellent flexibility, dynamics and speed. They combine two electromagnetic servo motors in just one slim housing and thus enable combined linear and rotary movements in the simplest way. The virtually wear-free modules also offer outstanding availability and can be equipped with many options. LinMot offers linear rotary motors in two different series.
Pick & Place Modules
LinMot's Pick & Place modules are standardised multi-axis systems consisting of the proven DM01 and DM03 direct drives, which act as dynamic X and Z axes. Both axes can be controlled independently of each other, enabling highly flexible pick & place applications. Precision shafts guided by linear ball bearings ensure accurate linear motion. The rounded surfaces of the housing also facilitate maintenance and cleaning of the modules. Thanks to the choice of materials and design principle, the drive units have a high bending stiffness with a comparatively low moving mass. The DM03 modules are equipped with a MagSpring® to relieve the vertical axis and passively compensate for the resulting weight. In terms of performance, users benefit from a force range of up to 360 N and strokes of up to 275 mm. With accelerations of up to 50 m/s2 and a maximum speed of 7 m/s, the required applications can be implemented very dynamically. Each pick & place module is delivered to the customer fully assembled and does not need to be assembled from individual parts. In addition, the modular design of the system allows it to be quickly adapted to customer requirements. The 'LinMot Designer' simulation software, available online at any time, ensures the correct selection and design of the modules. Plug and play technology allows the user to put the system into operation immediately. The required type parameters do not have to be selected manually, but are read in automatically by the servo drive.
