Anca Motion Launches LinX M-Series with Single Cable Motion System
At IMTS in Chicago, Anca Motion launched its LinX M-Series linear motor automation solution, featuring a slim design and high energy efficiency for precision CNC applications or high-speed automation systems .
Key Features:
Slim body design for space-constrained installations
High energy efficiency: Replacing pneumatic cylinders with tubular linear motors reduces energy costs with a payback period of 6-12 months
Single Cable Motion System: Adopts Hiperface DSL protocol technology, using a single cable to simplify machine integration, reduce waste, and offer improved diagnostics
Target Applications:
Precision CNC machining
Laser cutting (Anca Motion has been working largely with laser cutting businesses)
High-speed pick-and-place applications
Cylindrical grinding
The LinX M-Series is fully compatible with standard pneumatics accessories, such as mounting plates, linear guides, and couplings. At the show, two LinX motors were displayed in a V-structure parallel robot (V-Bot) arrangement demonstrating high-speed pick-and-place and high-precision contouring around various shapes .
