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.
